#17 - Mr. Fantastic "John Byrne style" bust

#1 Post by Das »

Hi there,

To go along with the Thing Bust I painted, here is Mr. Fantastic.
I still need the paint the Invisible Woman and my client is searching the Human Torch to complete the set (in case somebody have one to sell).

Built then painted using brushes / airbrush and Vallejo acrylic.
Sculpted (5 parts) by Jim Maddox.
Assembled and painted by me (Das).

Hope you'll like it.

Nice job. I have this kit also. The only problem I had with it that I broke one of the arms while moving it from a model show.

Thanks.
It's a pretty big bust. I brought it to 2 model shows before I gave it to its owner, had no issue with it but I can easily understand how an arm can broke, due to the size of it.

Good job on both kits, I like the color palette!
