THE CLUBHOUSE

Damn! that's some ancient history! I didn't realize that I did that almost 6 years ago!.

1/8 Joker is in process at the factory now 1/8 Batgirl to follow.

Great work!

Transparent black is just a little testors black mixed in clear gloss - sprayed from my trusty old pasche H..
Lots of clear just a little black applied as thin coats intil I get a build up of color I like..

Any news on if / where this kit is available??

Paint is artist oils over enamels.. Enamels applied with my trusty Pasche H artist oils with a variety of brushes.. The Brazilian was a relatively late addition, she almost ended up with a clean shave! I still have another copy of the Lunatic Fringe version of the kit stashed away if I get the urge ...

All I can say is if you don't have one of these kits in your stash yet - better hurry and send Nocturna Productions some cash.. It is one of the nicer kits I've built and painted - In fact I liked her so well that I bought a second copy just in case I get the urge to do another one!

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.
Apparently she made a favorable impression at Wonderfest as well, she earned a Bronze award!
It's a very nice kit and a pleasure to build and paint, I'm happy with her.

I'll circle those dates on my callendar!
Good choice of dates. Avoiding the Memorial day week end or Mother's day week end is good planning.

This is my revised version of Sex on the Beach. I never particularly cared for the anatomy of the original sculpt.. so I made some revisions to it for this build up.. 1st 3 shots here show comparison between my original piece (painted) and revised figure (in primer) I did some Boob reduction surgery...

Finished shots! I'm really please with the end result, this is a great kit. Likeness is the best I've seen in a kit. Castings are first rate and the engineering of the parts fit is very good. Planning on taking her along to Louisville this week end - try my luck with her in the big contest.. http://...

I'm down to the "short strokes" on this one.. Just need to shoot a little dull cote on her then gloss her mouth and eyes - paint her finger nails and a little jewelery. and find a spot on a shelf for her.. http://dmetzner.smugmug.com/Figures/Elvira/i-7pgSjHc/0/M/001-M.jpg http://dmetzner.s...

Heres a bit more progress - have added shading to the base, her dress and her legs - finished the whip and added detail to the dagger.. Still need to add shading to her hair, spray her legs with transparent black for her hose.paint her shoes and probably add some make-up to the face..Mainly eye shad...

Nocturna Elvira - work in process. Very nice kit - paint is Artist Oils over enamels - Hope to have her finished for Wonderfest.. http://dmetzner.smugmug.com/Figures/Elvira/i-v7Q6Bxd/0/M/005-M.jpg http://dmetzner.smugmug.com/Figures/Elvira/i-Ld5j6xF/0/M/011-M.jpg http://dmetzner.smugmug.com/Figures/...

Almost finished! Just need to spray a little flat cote here and there and add some gloss to her lips and eyes..I broke one of her fingers yesterday! Had her almost done and wouldn't you know it! I May add a ring to that finger to hide the repair, add some eye shadow, paint her fingernails and touch ...

Here's a larger photo

Her'es more progress - added the skirt, with some detail work on it, shaded all the bandages, and some more of the white satin details. Still need to add shading to bustier, tatered opera glovelets, and finish her face and hair. This project has progressed to the nervous stage - everytime I pick up ...

The kit is called Re Engaged from Kit Kong's Model Mansion. Check with James Whitman for availability, I know that he's a member here.
For sucha a big and complex piece it is pretty well designed and the castings are nice.

Here are some in progress shots of Re-Engaged. Hope to have her done in time for Wonderfest NRA.. Need to finish shading clothing and her bandages, finish her hair and her face.. http://dmetzner.smugmug.com/Adult-only/Re-Engaged/i-PwFNRh7/0/M/017-M.jpg http://dmetzner.smugmug.com/Adult-only/Re-Engag...

My partner and I were Lunatic Fringe models, we decided to get out of resin kit production. Jimmy Flintstone had been casting all of our kits for us . It just made good sense for us to sell everything to Jimmy. We sold Lunatic Fringe to Jimmy including all the master sculpts - so Jimmy can do anythi...
