Figured some of the older members on this forum might like to see this... Possibly one of the rarest figure kits ever produced, made by Stuart Evans of Sevans Models back in the eighties. Sevans produced a number of kits primarily of Dr Who and Captain Scarlet subjects which were amazing kits...

Finding myself with more time on my hands than usual, I recently dug these couple of figures out which were sitting broken in pieces in a box of old modelling stuff from my parents' house. After some careful pinning, glueing and rebasing plus a minimal amount of touch up on chips and dings, I...

Nap suggested I post this here, hope I have the right place. Below are details of how the shoulder guards (Sode) attach to the body armour (Do) on an older Japanese armour with large shoulder guards. Essentially the white bow in the centre attaches the shoulder guard and holds it in place on...

This is the original Geometric vinyl kit with the original resin base. I made a lot of alterations and corrections which you can see in the WIP forum. Painted with oils over airbrushed acrylics.

Hi, this is going to chronicle my work and modifications on the old Geometric Medusa kit. I initially bought one of the Thai vinyl recasts of both the figure and the even rarer base, but was then lucky enough to snag an original figure partially built plus the original solid resin base on...

Hi, been a while since I posted anything. This is the lovely "Old Whaler" bust from Green Monkey Models. I bought this because of all the character in the face, hope I have done it justice. The only modifications I made to the figure were to extend the right forearm a bit (as it looked a little...

Finally managed to finish this. I've been slowly trying to convert from oils to acrylics and this is my first full figure using all acrylics (except for the belt and boots - I still prefer enamels and oils for leather). I hope I managed to do this figure justice, it is a lovely sculpt by Steve...

This is the old Geometric Vinyl Talos figure, which I still think is one of the best representations. I built this a couple of years ago to enter into a local model show and as a tribute to Ray Harryhausen who sadly passed away that year. I originally planned to closely follow the battle scene...

This is the old and rare Kobyoshi kit which I bought a long time ago from Xofacto. There are a few recasts knocking around but you can tell the originals by the color of the resin and the fact that the arms come separate from the body - and also that the resin has more air bubbles than a glass...

Hi All, Just received this great 1/9th scale Terminator Bust by Sergey Alekhno of ASR Sculpture. Having seen the boxtop images with a photoshopped lit red eye I wanted to see if I could light the bust for real: First up is to find a really small LED. I found a Japanese Company (HIQParts)...

Here are a few pics from the show. It is very well attended and has a large number of categories. We are hoping to get the website revamped so I can post a link to more pics. My pics focus mainly on the figure category, I got a commended for my Andrea Centurion bust.

Hi, here's my finished Andrea "After the Battle" bust. This took first place in the Hong Kong open modelling competition a couple of years ago. It is a super bust and a joy to paint. All done in oils with Mr Metal Colour for the metalics (their dark iron colour buffs up a treat). John

Hi, here's my Young Miniatures Stormtrooper bust. I decided to make him a bit more menacing by adding a scratchbuilt gasmask. I also added some more grenades to his bags and made the later pattern endcaps for these since I intend to also give him a late pattern camouflage helmet. Other...

Hi, I'm a new poster to the forums (although I've been browsing here for a while and have been truly impressed and encouraged by the quality of work here and the friendly atmosphere). My name is John, I'm English but have been living in Hong Kong for the last 20 years. I was heavily into...
