Col. Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 All great but Smaug is a cracker. Was interested to see your Black Widow as I have the same kit heading toward the painting stage if I can pluck up the courage to make her hair a bit more realistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annemarie7477 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Thanks guys. Rick, I am in the process of completing my latest Iron Man kit by Dragon. I have done three all together. The one on the first image I posted,the Mk VI, where all my kits are in a group, I decided to put some LEDs into him. His eyes, chest and hands light up. The second one I did is the same kit as yours I think, the Mk VII I believe and the paint I used was a bit gloopy and didn't brush very well. The one I'm kinda working on now, the Mk XLII, I've decided to spray paint with Tamiya sprays. It's annoying me because I have had to faff with masking funny areas. I will finish it, I'm sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Her hair is very tricky and I wish it didn't look quite as glossy as it does as it looks plasticky but i tried using 'natural tones and highlights' as they say in the ads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngstROM Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Wowsa, that's one heck of an entrance! This is a tough genre; it takes a big talent to get that kind of animated look with these guys and your paintwork is really cool. The Treksters are particularly awesome! I doubt it could teach you much, but there is a competition gallery over on Cybermodeler Online (http://www.cybermodeler.com/special/cult2014/cult2014_gallery_b.shtml) that has some very high quality work with some interesting subjects -might be a few ideas for new projects there... Welcome, of course; hope you enjoy the Britmodeller thing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gruffy Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Wow! I love your yoda. You must do some more star wars figures eg C3PO (hint hint!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you should mention the Star Wars figures, I have been looking at some and C3PO was on my list. Its going to take time to get and start though. You're all very kind, thanks again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will look forward to some of the photos of the XLII you are building. Have you posted a work in progress thread ? Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin1980 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Yoda is fab but I am completely stunned at how good Smaug is, a fantastic piece! Plus the riddler, hand painted question marks, I would have been cross eyed by the time one leg was done and he may have made a trip out of the window!!!! Stunning work Anne-Marie and WW2 diorama to boot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I think your skills at bringing expression to the characters especially the faces is some of the best work i have seen, it brings the models alive, and considering you hand paint them just makes me appreciate your work even more, Lovely stuff , i love Smaug !! the evil and menace comes across ...Congratulations Norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilfish Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 They all look great! I wish I could do figures at all, let alone as good. Is it just me though, or does anyone else think Thor looks like Noel Edmunds? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
