For a collector I met at Expo. It will be very similar to one of Bill Horan's pieces. I notice that the hand holding the pistol looks too large.

John, I noticed that. Did the collector want a similiar version? Either way I like what you've done so far. The folds are really nice. Are you going to have him wearing a hat or is his head going to be bandaged?~Gary

 

[John Long]

The head will be bandaged. The collector asked for exactly that. It will be a tough act to follow, if I get close I'll be happy.

Excellent stuff John!

I really like the leg thats on the ground, superb folds! Looking forward to see it in the flesh soon.

Very nice work, what material are you using to sculpt in?

Though I like the new hand I think you might want to tilt the pistol back so it is sort of in between what you had originally and the update.

Great figure, good sense of movement

Thanks guys.

Ethan, you may have something there. I'll try tilting it back a bit. I use magic-sculpt, and duro mostly. The cowl is a mix of the two. I needed some flexibility for the cowl as it was my intention to have it removable until after painting. That didn't work out though.

John, That's really looking nice. I like the idea of the foam (floral?) as a basis for the groundwork. Do you typically give it a thin coat of A & B? I'll have to give it a try.~Gary
