Prime Time!

After a little more Sanding I applied a couple coats of DupliColor Filler/Primer. This helps to fill minor imperfections.





Next I applied two coats of White Primer.





Paint By Numbers!
I drew the Paint Lines on Frankie. This makes painting the different areas a little easier.





The Other Side.

Here is the first coat of Green for his Skin.





Here is the first coat of Brown for Frankie's Hair. I will add a second color to the Skin and Hair later.

Frankie Needs Scars!

I carved Frankie's Scars with a Scribe Point. There is one around each Wrist, one at the Hair Line on both sides and a Big One on his Forehead.





Here they are after a little Red Paint was applied.

I've been wanting to comment on this thread since it started.
Just really had the time until now.

I'm having all kinds of fun watching this take shape.

Keep posting those pix!

Thanks Trevor!

Time to Wash Frankie!

I added a Decal to Frankie's T Shirt, and then sprayed on another coat of Dullcote.






Next I applied The Detailer, a Black Wash, and then another coat of Testors Dullcote.

Blood Shot Eyes!

I found an easy way to paint Blood Shot Eyes. I use Vallejo Acrylic paint, thinned with water, and applied with a Toothpick. These Multi-Color Toothpicks don't absorb much paint, so you can paint a pretty Fine Line with them.





I painted Frankie's Eyes and Teeth with a Clear Gloss Enamel. After the Enamel dried I applied some Black Wash around the Eyes.

Staples!

Frankie's Scars along the forehead are Stapled together. I made the Staples with RC Stripping Tape.





I brushed a coat of Dullcote over the Staples to help hold them in place.

Nothing in This Hand!

I decided to get rid of the Vase, so I removed it with a Dremel Tool.





Then I glued a piece of plastic in the carved out area and smoothed out the Palm with some Aves Apoxy. this stuff is very thick and you cam work with it for a couple hours before it gets hard. I like this product, especially for repairing a painted Model.





Here is the Palm after a little clean up and paint. Look no Vase!





Here is the back of his Hand, Finished!

Making the Base!

I started with a lid to a Cookie Can and sprayed it Flat Brown.





Next I smeared some White Glue on the Base. After the Glue Dried I smeared more White Glue on to create more texture.





Then I sprinkled some "Earth", brown sawdust, on the wet glue. I bought the "Earth" from the local Hobby Shop in the Trains Department.

On Base!

I applied more White Glue and sprinkled some "Autumn Grass" on the Base.





Next I drilled a hole for the Fiber Optics.





I glued Frankie on the Base with 5 Minute Epoxy. I also added a couple rocks and more Autumn Grass.





Here is the wiring for Frankie's Eyes.
