Darthneill.............. later today..... obi padawan pics. I promise

You've made the monkey cry.
And it takes a great deal to sour a monkey's outlook on life... well you could take his banana away-- but that'd be just cruel.

 

[Darren Carnall]

don't cry....... (family nonsense popped up.... i had to attend)

sorry for the cryptic pic, but i took a whole load of them, and they were all bleached out and colourless... grrrrr

managed to salvage this bit from one of the pics. Anyway... this hasn't been varnished, dullcoted or eye glossed yet.... so more to come

hopefully i'll get to take some more on sunday (tomorrow)

sorry for breaking my promise....

The eye sockets alone on this one are staggering.

I can't wait to see the finished product.

The eyes ARE the window to the soul... I do believe that my 12" Obi from TPM will have a soul.

Amazing work Darren! You have really become something of a juggernaut with you painting and head casting! Just wonderful stuff you're putting out

Darren, amazing work as always!! the eye detail alone is quite staggering, really love all the red tones in there... something I forget a lot of the time. You continue to inspire my friend! Can't wait to see the finished product.

You can't wait??? I'm going nuts...

But, as is often learned through life-- patience is a virtue and you can't rush genius.

Darren... I salute you.

gorgeous eyes Darren!! Is that a young Obi Wan? It looks like it from the mole between his eyes...

 

[Rogue Trooper]

Nice obi eyes, i should have one on the way.

sorry to have put you through this DarthNeill, lol..... I know you've been pulling your hair out waiting. I just took these photos about an hour ago. For some (annoying) reason virtually none of them turned out with the right colour tone that the real thing has.... hence a few of them are in black and white, 'cause I still liked the pics. Even the colour ones didn't work properly... but it lets you see the paintjob anyway... just a slightly different skin tone in person that's all.

(oh.... and thanks for the comments you guys )

I just stuck it quickly on my Obi-Wan body to have a look....

I'm gonna give it maybe 24 hours to make sure the various layers of varnish/dullcote/eye gloss is fully dry before I pack them up, but basically they'll be on their way to the 2 people waiting after that

hope you enjoy it DarthNeill.... lol
