Well here he is folks, this project I was working on for a friend. I have to say this was quite a challenge, not only is the Banshee figure a pain to work with, what having to chop off the neck shave it down, reposition it (at ANY angle better than that horrid 60 degrees perpendicular to the body!) build up the shoulders, and add some boot tucks. Painting the Swastika was difficult too because the first time I did not have the source photo with me and I got the colors reversed (white circle with Black Swastika) so I had to re-do it. I am proud to report however that I can't just whip off a perfect swastika from memory. :) The source photo I decided to go with had his jumpsuit with traditional sleeves rather than any sort of tapering or fancy gloves. So I sculpted the sleeves with Apoxie, using tin foil as a barrier to keep them swivel-able. The head is from Black Arachnis and took quite a bit of rigging to get it to fit on those impossible Hasbro neck posts. All in all, it was a rewarding project and it now marks my second villain mod. I'm not much of a fan of Redskull myself and hope that did not show in my work. I also hope the new photography techniques I'm trying helped me get clearer pics so you can see the drybrushing and sculpt detail. All I need now are some weapons for him and he's all set to go. ![]() |
