Re: Archer Eye Decals

Thanks Wolfy!
But I'm still wondering if the eyes look more realistic when applied than on the sheet.

Archer Eye Decals

Has anyone used Archer Eye Decals?
They look kind of 'cartoony' to me.
But maybe they look better on a kit?
Any opinions?
Thanks.

Silly Putty

When using silly putty for masking, is it reusable or is it a one shot deal?
Thanks.

Re: IT! The Terror From Beyond Space

Yes, it's a Dimensional Designs kit.
Slightly different (customized?) base.

Re: “Mrs. Peel, we’re needed.”

Wow, you finished her fast!
You just posted Steed and said she was next and here she is.

I always wondered who sculpted the Juniper kits. How did you find out?

Anyway, both John and Emma look excellent! Great work!

Re: Killer Kits Dracula AD

I had only seen a bust version of this.
I thought about buying it but decided against it because I wanted a full figure.

That is an amazing paint-up!
Without going into details, everything looks perfect!!

Gotta get one and hope I can make it somewhere near as good yours.

Re: RIP George A Romero

Also a couple NOTLD kits.
The best, in my opinion, is the 'Graveyard Zombie' produced by Geo and sculpted by Joe Simon.
Excellent likeness and pose. Still available, I believe.

RIP George Romero

Just learned legendary film-maker, writer, director George A Romero passed away Sunday 7/16/17, at age 77, from lung cancer. I've always been a fan and I met him several times, first in the early 1970's. He always impressed me as a genial, friendly, humble and very talented guy. I will miss him. Res...

Re: Creature bust - Monsters from the Woods

I'm surprised this didn't get more responses.
While this may not be exactly film accurate, it's the version I like most.

Everything is subtle. Color changes blend flawlessly and everything looks natural.
Great job!

After viewing all of your kitbash posts, I have to say you are a very talented guy!
Your conversion work is outstanding!
And, beyond that, your paint work is also deserving of very much praise!
Great!

Amazing improvements of the original kit!
If it had looked like either, I'd have bought it in a heartbeat.

Re: Thranduil: LOTR Elf King

This is a technique I tried many years ago.
The results were less than satisfactory.

But looking at your piece, I'm inspired to give it another shot.
Yours is truly amazing! Can't imagine it being it being any better! Great job!

I also use Pan Pastels.
But I still haven't achieved the subtly and realism you have with this piece.

Re: The Maltese Falcon - Yagher Hollywood Classics #1

Wow!

I have this kit and planned the exact same technique you used for the suit.
Got appropriate sized masking tape (from Micro Mark, I think).
Haven't started it yet but I can only hope it comes out half as good as yours.

Excellent!

Re: Crouching Alien (PIC Heavy)

Man, that looks absolutely amazing! AMAZING!

But it doesn't appear to have the clear dome.
Is that an artistic choice or was there trouble fitting it?
