When it dried i gave it a blast with primer just to see how its looking.

Then i decided to use good all squadron to fill a few areas which i will sand down when dry.

Right can sand again when dry, and hopefullyit will be the last bit of sanding.

And I'll also sculpt the hood.

 

Thanks for looking, more soon :)

Just a quick one, I've sanded down the filler and gave it a blast of primer.

Cheers Matt!

 

Speaking of the hoodie, i managed to get the hood done today, did it in greenstuff and then added some thin wire for the tassles.

Thanks for looking, more soon :)

I like the tassles, although on my hoodies one end always seems to vanish inside the hood somewhere and I end up pulling out the cord and throwing it away :(

 

The segmented belt is really cool as well - very neat work.

Cheers Will! Yeah same with mine! :lol:

 

I'm in the process of updating my photo codes, for now heres a quick update of his web fluid bracelets (which I totally forgot about when I mentioned paint soon in my previous post!)

 

Like the belt, they were done in greenstuff cut to size, wrapped round, smoothed with a little vaseline on my finger and then given the same segmented look with the back of a scalpel blade.

The green stuff additions look spot on, Hunter. 

Which green stuff are you using?  Is it the Squadron stuff in the toothpaste like tube? I only ask, as my green stuff doesn't behave anything like yours.

Thanks Matt. The green stuff,  is called kneadite but people also call it "green stuff" too. It comes in a strip half blue half yellow and you mush it together till its a uinform green.

Its like hard rubber when it dries and sticks like super glue, you have to get it smooth before drying though as it doesn't sand very well at all because of its rubbery nature.

Very handy stuff for mods and best of all its cheap!

I just put them on before I baked them to see how they look.

Right so next I'll bake them and get them in place and just use some greenstuff to make the straps.

 

Thanks for looking, more soon :)

Okay so I was baking a quiche so with the oven out of commission I boiled my ankle pouches and when they were cool I drilled a hole in them and the legs and glued them in place.

35454086230_82fe6a1611_c.jpg20170710_132610 by Nick Frost, on Flickr

 

And then I used some greenstuff to make the straps by rolling out some thin sausages and then flattening them down.

And even though the greenstuff wasn't fully cured I couldn't resist spraying some primer to tie all the additions together

Sooo close to paint now! I'll need to create my eye masks after I've sprayed the head white and then the fun begins :)

Cheers guys really appreciate it!

 

Okay time for an update, feels like its been a while, I'm still very busy moving all my photos from photobucket, which I know a lot of you can relate to!

 

I got spidey sprayed white, and then created some eye masks on the computer which i cut out on my plotter at work

35732517752_4b5cb0fdc7_c.jpg20170713_132640 by Nick Frost, on Flickr

 

Then after getting them in place, I started getting down the red!

And now thats done I'm currently getting the blue of his hoodie brushed on with some enamel paint, much easier then mucking about with masking to spray. Oh and I removed the eye masks.

So next up I'll finish off the hoodie then do the pouches, he'll get a matte coat before brush the metallics so I dont kill the shine.

 

Thanks for looking, more soon :)

Okay finally time for an update.

 

Just been brushing on more enamels, got the main colour down on the hoodie, the brown of the ankle pouches.

35196380683_379fb091cb_c.jpg20170718_134157 by Nick Frost, on Flickr

 

Got the tassels painted white and gave the pouches a little dry brush.

35920704702_6fba0c8257_c.jpg20170719_132530 by Nick Frost, on Flickr

 

Then I gave it a flat coat with the airbrush and got the metallics started.

Next up I'll finish the front of the belt and then I'll have to create the mask for his chest logo and get that sprayed on in black.

 

Obviously these are just the base colours, once I've got the logo on I'll use pigments to add shading, I always feel more comfortable doing that with figures.
