The forgotten prisoner

#1 Post by go-figure »

My latest aurora project all chained up and ready to display. One of aurora's coolest kit is all original except for the Todd Powell replacement head. Painted in acrylics, I tried copying the box art as best I could.

Wonderful!
I love the colors. I plan on taking some inspiration from this when I finally get my 2nd one done.

This looks great!
I've always wanted to attempt one of these "lighting-effect" paint jobs, but I've always been worried I wouldn't be able to pull it off well. You executed it rather well. Kudos!

You did a good job on the box art effect it’s not easy colors look good and I think I’m going to have to get one of those replacement heads

Same here.
But I figure if I mess it up, it's not that much work to prime it again and start over.

Thanks Bobby! I used to think the same way until I took the plunge and went for it. You may surprise yourself!!
