"The Juggernaut" 75mm Figure By Scale Models Tech - Julian Conde

[CondeJulian]

Hey Guys,

This is my latest work, a 75mm sculpt by the amazing Joaquin Palacios, what a complex figure !
It's a Black Sun Miniatures release.

This is posted as a SBS on the WIP forum, and here as finished work, now with pro photos under correct light.

My skin tones are Abteilung 502 oils over acrylics (Tamiya Flat Flesh), and for the rest I used a mix of Mission Models paints, Scale Color Artist's Acrylics (which will be reviewed soon for the Michigan Toy Soldier Blog using this build) and bits of Vallejo (metal color for all metallics) and Polly S, Liquitex, Gunze, Andrea and AK Interactive.
Weathering is basic brush and sponge chipping with filters, and mostly 70% of the weathering is made by using VMS Pigments and their amazing Enamel Binder, manipulated with odourless thinner after.
I can now replace all oil and enamel products for techniques such as Streaks, Rust, Panel Fading, Precision pin-point wash and some others with just pigments and the binder, as shown here.

I did a few minor mods on this figure, mainly the robot arm red hose was added (it has real webbing) and a small piggy pink bear on the weapon, because we must have something to up the level of fluffiness of this guy.

Let me know your thoughts, It took me some 220 hours of painting, close to 45 days.

Thanks Nap !
The red lens is made by Greif, they have several sizes and colors for scale model headlights and such. This one I masked the center and painted the outer edge with a transparent glossy red, giving that look.

The gun is just too big to drill a hole and simulate a "normal"gun that fires projectiles, and there would be no space to store shells in the sculpture, so I think more of an Ray Gun of some sort, EMP. so the lens was my way out on this one...
