Goblin from RP models "Dr Festus Heemogoblin"

[Nap]

Hi Guys ,

Following on from the Review I did on the latest release from RP Models ..the Goblin , I have this on my bench

Currently nearly finished the clothing apart from the seams and decoration on the hood .....the face will be fitted into the hood soon , then a check and onto the bits and bobs he has on the belt.

Might add an earring as well if I can summon up the skill to drill !!!

Going to do something with the bottle he carry's as well as the manuscript

Nameplate was ordered and received yesterday ........."Dr Festus Heemogoblin"...play on words there

[/ATTACH]

​

The aim on the clothing was to bring out the texture and move away from the monk type clothing in a brown

I see this fellow as an evil sinister Goblin doctor and must admit I am enjoying the painting ...Acrylics of course!!!

Thanks for looking in

Review to WIP all in one day, Nice painting on the face, reminds me of the film "The Mask".
You have done quite a bit so far and is looking very nice.
Keep up the good work

Nice work so far.
I like the face; particularly the zit which looks about ready to burst.

Cheers,
Andrew

Looks great
Looks like there might be a little casting line left on the back left upper arm in pic 4. Just thought I would mention it
Hate when they show up after the model is finished!

Hi Guys ,

Managed to get away from my bench to get some pictures of where I am with this ....

clothing all finished ,

Ears and hands plus tie at the neck to do !!!

Bottle and remaining bags to paint and fit

Final checks

Nameplate then on !!!

I have added a seal hanging from the manuscript he holds as well as detailing the book up a little by adding an "all seeing eye" on the front with the word "Spells" (in Goblin language of course!!!) on the spine .

Really enjoying this

Thanks for looking in

You have excelled yourself on this one.

Cheers Bob,

Thanks for comment about my bust ...and the one I am painting is a fine one as well!!

It's certainly a different approach painting non military subjects ...good to have a change as well

Thanks for looking in

You have done a fine job on this Nap and it shows you have enjoyed yourself. Personally I feel the decoration on the hood deserves painting and a complimentary colour to the green face would be nice. Purple or red??

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the comments ...I will be painting the hood embroidery .....building up my mojo!

Verbal update ....

Now added a securing strap on book( stops spells from escaping!)

Fingers,ears all done ...finger nails are next ......

Then to the fingerless gloves probably be a leather ..... Then it's the bottle and then....

That hood embroidery!....Valium and caffeine at the ready

A suggestion from SWMBO is to splatter a bit of blood on the clothing by using the flicking method!.....but wait till you have finished everything else she says ........

Any thoughts or suggestions ( divorce is not an option LOL )

Thanks for looking in
