Ollie30 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Decided to drag these guy`s out of the stash as we are on lock down. Been meaning to do something with them for some time now so the plan is to build a suitable diorama for them to live on, the rocks they stand on will be discarded but for now they act as stands for painting. I have left the hands off as i plan to create some scratch guitars and i may have to swap and change some of them in order to incorporate them later, i`m also gonna take this opportunity to create some home made decals which i have never done before so if anyone has any recommendations for decal paper that would be good. Finished filling gaps with Vallejo plastic putty and once that`s dried i will do the first sanding and re fill any gaps missed then hopefully into the booth for an undercoat. Thanks for looking. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie30 Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share Posted March 27, 2020 First fill and initial primer, these really are a pain in the A**E to sand due to all the detail around the seams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stef N. Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I loved this album back in the day but I haven't heard it for so long so I don't know if it as stood the test of time. I will follow along with interest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie30 Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Little bit of progression, black base coats done and a little flesh tone base added. Still lots of detailing and shading to do but we`ll get there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie30 Posted March 31, 2020 Author Share Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Bit more progress, used Vellejo metallic gunmetal mixed with metal medium to create a super metallic, can`t really see the effect in the photo but it really pop`s Edited April 1, 2020 by Ollie30 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie30 Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Today we move a step further, for Ace i wanted a more spacey type finish so i used Vellejo Metallic Aluminium mixed with a little metal medium to lighten and also make the colour more pearlesent. Still loads of detailing to add before finish, tomorrow it`s the drummers turn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie30 Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Peter Criss now almost done, used Vallejo Steel metallic this time just to give each model a slightly different tone. Once shading and weathering is done they should look well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie30 Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Not a good day today, spent most of it painting the sequins which drove me crackers then ruined it with a poor attempt at a hairy chest lol. Back in the paint booth tomorrow for a wax. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
