[Greggo]

Cheers for the help Gregg, I really appreciate the emails... hopefully with your help I will be happier with my heads ...

Its really no problem at all, Im always happy to help out . You can only get better never worse. I cant believe how much I have come on over the years with my paint. A huge difference even from a year ago lol

I know great eh Ron. I have been following his advice this evening trying to paint my Old Ben (That sounds odd) but I am finding it really tough... but hey we all gotta learn.

 

[hemble]

Hey Mark

I just checked out your Obi and just let me say are you F#@^king kidding your having a hard time painting yeah right. Mate the paint apps are excellent you should be very pround of that work you are not going to have any trouble with painting Indy let me tell you now.

Greggo - I'l be sending you an email as well if that's ok I've always used vallejo or reaper paints for my skin tones and I would be very interested on knowing more about how you go about using your paints.

Greggo,

Your hatted Indy looks photo realistic to a still of Harrison from RAIDERS. It is, without question, best repaint I have ever seen!

Factory Paint Job and Greggo's paint job.

Indiana Jones

The 2 heads together.

haha I guess I can be a bit hard on my self when it comes to heads but its one thing that I really want to be good at...

I know that I am just waiting for the penny to drop and suddenly I will figure out the painting heads thing.

Hopefully my Indy will be here tomorrow. I have already done a mould of the ROTLA hat less head and will cast a few up to practice on, and I am so excited about getting a Indy with a hat.. The Crystal Skull indy head look a wee bit big... but I will wait and see......

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

totally agree and this view is knock out!!

 

[hemble]

Yeah I think we are or a little hard on ourselves when it comes to painting it's the nature of the beast especially in this hobby. And the HS are posting out tomorrow so you should get them within 10 days.

 

[cadaver202]

Just keep up practicing and practicing. Its taken me some time to get used to the methods Im happy with. The main problem I used to have is the fact of brush marks. So it was the start of last year were I gave water washes ago, since that I have never looked back lol. Your Obi Wan so far is looks awesome, you already have a similar style to myself. Dont ever give up

I think this is a really nice piece. Is that the shrunk down PF head I see? Its a great sculpt Beautiful work.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

and Gregg.... I will never give up
