1/6th Governor Tarkin

[Dorgmal Snow]

I got home today from a pleasant day at work to find a parcel for Monkeybat! ow goodie I thought he has cast the binos. and yes indeed he had.. but.... there was more... much more.... lots of little heads!!!!!!!!

One of which was Tarkins.

Now I have no idea where Steve got it from but I took a mould straight away whilst cooking the family tea I was so excited. I cast it in plaster resin as it needed a little work to clean it up.... and here is the result so far....

I will spray it up tomorrow and you will get a better idea.

Nice…can't wait to see it painted.

 

[FLOSI]

Looks good but it't still a bit difficult to tell just how nice it is without a paint app...

 

[galactiboy]

Good looking sculpt

 

[monkeybat]

I have the mold to make many more guys plus the binos are coming.

 

[the dude person]

looks nice... but somehow looks a little like a monkey...

Maybe once you add your special touch to it he'll look more human...

 

[Chakaman]

A monkey?? wtf?

I sure dont see a monkey.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Hey DUDE!! you gotta get your primates right! Its an Ape not a monkey LOL.

looks great to me. i have very little experience so really can't say this for certain, but maybe the only thing would be to thin the paint a little bit more so its not so textured. but on the other hand the texture could give it realism.

 

[roguebaron]

Well done, the close up photo hold up well! I really hope sideshow does Tarkin in the near future, but I'd happily put this one in my collection as well.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

yeah I put the paint on in really thin layers but then dry brushed it with a light colour which picked up all the texture....

Practice makes perfect....

 

[Darthgothikus]

At least he's not "Tango'd"

 

[shocktrooper_au]

makes a great stand in I think
