Deadpool is now finished! He was a 3D print I bought about a year ago, not sure on the scale, it was sold just as being 28cm high, but to look at I'd say he probably is around 1/6. I brush painted him with enamels, except for the sword which was sprayed with Mr Crystal Moon Pearl and the gun wich was an alclad mix of steel and jet exhaust then dry brushed with silver. Shading/weathering was mostly done with graveyard dirt mig pigment. Heres a link to the wip:- This was a pleasure to do, I've done a couple of 3d prints now and always enjoy doing them, thanks to everyone who followed along and here are the pics IMG_20230822_175252794_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175308021_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175327699_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175340699_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175357101_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175413418_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175424000_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175441484_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175458300_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175515099_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175538950_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175545383_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175719166 by Nick Frost, on Flickr IMG_20230822_175841139_HDR by Nick Frost, on Flickr All comments and questions welcome, thanks for looking

Hi all, I picked this figure up at the Telford IPMS show two years ago, it was pre painted and a simple push fit together kit. I wanted to see if I could add some lighting and bring it to life, not an easy project as the body was not completely hollow but made up of complex moulded chambers, however with a bit of perseverance I got there in the end. I powered the 5 LED’s with a pp3 9v battery under the base. Iron man's head looked too small for his body and the back of the helmet looked more like a skull in shape, so I mixed up six layers of quick setting clear epoxy and built up the back of the head and neck to bulk out the profile. With a bit of battle weathering and a flat coat I think it turned out well.

Hi guys I'm looking at repaint my Dragon Models Iron Man and I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good paint to get that nice red metallic look. I'm not to fussed about the gold and silver I think I will look at the alclad colours although I welcome any advice on these as I've never really painted any kind of metallic look before thanks Sam

I have an obsession about Iron Man. I'm not sure what it is, possibly Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark, I'm not sure. All I know is that I have what some may consider a strange obsession with him. I have built the Moebius Iron Man kit (MKVI) which I fitted with LEDs so that his hands, eyes and arc reactor lit up. I then built the MKVII by Dragon which didn't go so great, the paint was a little gloopy and I enjoy brush painting and tried to brush paint Iron Man but it didn't work out very well. He looks great from a distance but, close up, he looks a bit ropey. So, when the latest Dragon Iron Man appeared in my (semi)local modelshop, I couldn't resist. The MK XLII is an absolutely stunning kit. The pieces looked great even on the sprue when I opened the box in the shop. I don't have these pictures because I didn't think that far ahead at the time. The kit fits together nicely, the front body armour and back body armour took a little persuading when trying to click them together over the 'skeleton' but once I managed it, it looks great. One good thing about doing a few different Iron Man kits is that I was able to learn by trial and error of what worked and what didn't. I knew that brushes didn't give a clean enough effect. I have already said about my obsession with Iron Man so I wanted him to look good. I chose Tamiya sprays for MK XLII but did not spray the pieces before I assembly. I've realised since then that might have been a better idea. Any way, It's not far from finished but still requires masking on both legs and one arm and the spraying finished. Until then, here he is...Dragon 1/9 MKXLII Iron Man from Marvel Studio's, Iron Man 3. I hope you like him. I am buying more masking tape this weekend so I can finally get him finished.

Hi all, Don't really dip into Sci Fi that much but a colleague sent me a link to this 6th scale model Hot Toys Black Widow Mind blowing realism, it's almost frightening! Bit of a noobie question, is this the regular standard of figurines in this scale or is this an exception? At around £115 ex. post, is this a good price? Only asking as I've been watching the Avengers (the Marvel version!) recently and would like to do a bit of collecting. Thanks in advance!
