As the man himself would say : "Fascinating".




Haven't you got one of "Bones"? Then I could post a one-liner here such as "There is life, Jim, but not as we know it". :lol:


Seriously, a good painting job Alex did you first airbrush the flesh tones and then added thin greyish washes in the wrinkles? This looks like the older Leonard Nimoy.

In my recollections, Mr. Spock had a chalky white complexion. Or was it my crummy b&w TV set?

Anyway, great job, Alex!

Pete,

... In fact I'm waiting until someone says: "B... .. .., .....y"



...now, was it James Doohan (or something?) who played .....y ?

 

[Elia Cid]

Jim,
Always good to hear from you, he's one of my favorite too!

Thanks

Hi Frank,
Take a look at this affect with acrylics!
I only used acrylics on this, you see Frank the secret is to make acrylics to look and behave like oils. This way you have the best of both worlds!

Thank for your support ,for the book.
Alex

 

[Guy]

Fantastic Alex..................you have done a super job with the acrylics.

Hi Guy,
I still have to get around to painting his teeth,
His arms were a real pain getting rid of his joint lines,
The lower part of the arms were cast to the tree stump or branch he's on
This is the Second Edition, other then that Mark Newman did a great job,
He’s number 324 #

Thanks
Alex
