Completed Spock

[Luca D]

Hi, this is one of my works in progress - I have three now!
I am painting this bust for a friend of mine who is a true Trekkie. I am now trying to guess two specific colors:
1. Spock’s uniform. Vallejo blue - what blue?
2. The emblem on his chest. Was it pale gold or silver?
What do you think about it?

Andrea miniatures has a Spock figure in their catalogue you might want to check that..

Great start on what looks like a fantastic bust, you really have got the face beautifully done.

Cheers Simon

Here's a video by Dr. Faust where he used Vallejo Medium Blue and Magic Blue which is pretty close to the "canon look" imo

You could also go with a more desaturated pastel blue to replicate the original look of the show

Hi! I completed Spock at last!

Thank you Planeteers for your help with the Star Trek universe and thank to teacher Mrs Giulia Raponi for her precious painting lessons.

That is a cracking finish Luca, you really have done a really good job, mind you it would be better if you had the black cat as well, but hey I just love cats!

Cheers Simon

I am really glad you liked my painting on this fine bust.
This is not my last Spock, the next one will have a cat too - surely a black one
