Finally got my hands on one of
these. It's already been started, but I don't care. A quick bath in some purple power, and he is ready to go. |
Primered it white, then masked it off with some silly putty. Here is the base-coat on the body. |
Originally, I was going to go with a
purple suit. That was my first though. Don't know why, but I just thought he wore a purple suit. But then when I started searching for reference pics I found lots of colors. And I really liked this color scheme. And as you can see I already had a can of yellow that was really close. I just thought I can really make the colors pop on this and make it something eyecatching. |
new Not exactly the green I wanted but it will work for a base coat. It's just a bit too green. The shade I have that I wanted to use, just didn't want to work. For some reason it had no 'bite'. I just kind of pushed around on the surface and never grabbed it. Hopefully, after I do the spots and such, I will be able to use it as a sort of glaze over it all to tie it all together, and tone things down. |
new Got the spots done. A little sloppy, but I think a lot of it will be hidden when the glaze goes over it anyway. |
