Hi,

I have just started to remove molding lines, but even if they are not many, this is not always easy to have access to them when they are in the folds. I also inserted a paper clip to strengthen the hand holding the weapon.

I can be wrong, but it looks like the weapon need some straighting work.

That's true i am going to use my hair dryer to fix the problem.

The figure was sent on January 10th and I received it seven days later.

Hi!
I saw you started ahead the others . It's OK.
When you straighten the shaft, also get sure that it touches the miniature in the point where it rests behind the neck.

Hi!
I saw there were some french fellows following the course in other forum:

Just wanted to say that if you need any help, just ask. I don't speak french, but we'll try to manage something.

OK thanks. I am going to inform them.

A short message to inform you that I am still here and participate but I have a lot of difficulties to achieve flesh parts. I have restarted 3 times up to now. So I am going to make a short break in order to finish other projects for the Montrouge International exhibition on 2-3 April and I will be back here.

Hi all,

I am back in the game. Here are some photos. Sorry for their quality but my camera is not at home and I used my blackberry.






I am going to start the shirt and I will come back later to the flesh parts.

 

[Merkava]

I am back. Due to a problem with painting, I had to repaint flesh parts. I painted the shirt and the trousers. I am not very happy with my painting. This is not enough smooth if I compare to my previous paintings.

 

[Fernando Ruiz]

Not bad at all!
The shirt would need more extreme highlights in the upper areas, but you got a nice tone there, I like it a lot. Are the pants finished?
Regards
FeR

 

[Merkava]

OK for the shirt. As regards the pants... eumh.... well.... It seems that it is not finished. I am going to improve my lights.

 

[Fernando Ruiz]

Fantastic.

Hi all,

I have just finished my figure. The experience was interesting but it is too "greenish" in my opinion.

The dio was made with Milliput and the grass was put in place thanks to this wonderful object: A viagra for grass green
