[Nap]

Hi Guys,

Well I just finished painting "Can you hear me mother" from Elan13 leaving it in its original form (pics soon) but as I was painting I had a inspirational idea .........

At this point my mate Jimbo went into hiding .......

I found him ......he he

So the rather fine fellow did a few additions .....

Put a right arm on

Helmet opened up ....a piccy off a mum will be in the final version !

Reworked the head

Lengthened the arm

Reworked the back


...he's good eh ....

Oh...I based him and ordered the nameplate!

Here's a few iffy pics with iPad ( he is now primed in black , head off for painting )

Hope to do a WIP on this ...if I remember the pics !!

Reckon he will look great and a definite one off

Thanks for looking in

Nap

Excellent concept Kevin; and that's a superb piece of re-sculpting by Jim.
It really brings to life the element of "Can You Hear Me Mother?"
Looking forward to seeing the painting of this one.

Cheers,
Andrew

Life's hard Jim...it will toughen them up for adulthood...and make Grampy Jimbo slimmer

Crikey, cooky monster's eaten his specs Jimbo

Hi Guys ,

Bit of an update , everything is nicely base coated in Acrylics , not sure about you folk but I find it easier to paint if I basecoat neatly!!

I also now always mount on the base that I have chosen , covering this with clingfilm and paper tape (the film stops the stickiness mucking the base up ...and I have a good way to hold when painting !!!

You can also see the pike he will have ( cheers Jimbo)

More updates will follow as soon as I can

Thanks for looking in

Nap

 

[Viking Bob]

Looking good Nap.

 

[arj]

It's coming along nicely. I like the addition of the pike (it was a permanent fixture in the character's hand).
Also admire your neatness. I try, but generally fail miserably.

Cheers,
Andrew

 

[Jimbo]

I'm too good to you Kev!...I want it back
Cheers
Jim
