really well done and great paint and pics.

Thanks! I need to improve my photobooth eventually, but for now, it'll have to do. A pal is working on helping me improve it

Very cool Dp. I have to try that dyeing trick.

Thanks! The dye just saturates the plastic, so that the joints and hinges and such turn black and stay black. They can't rub off after that. It's a good second place to having black plastic in the first place.. Just be sure to rinse it VERY good afterwards or the dye will seep up in to your paint. THAT sucks.

Nice layers of color! Great job!

Thanks! It's always nice to hear when other people can spot something you did but weren't sure anybody would notice!

Nice work A hundred times better I am digging mow I will have to make mine darker to follow your lead

Thanks! Yeah, I'm liking this better than the darker version, though my son says he liked the darker one better because the details were easier to see in his opinion.

He's my toughest critic. lol

Rad!

Thanks!

Nice work, but what are you referring to when you mention "dyeing" the figure?

Dye, like used for dying fabric. I use a multi-purpose dye that, while the plastic is heated, saturates the plastic staining the color. Then, once heated again and rinsed, any unused dye gets washed away. Once that's done, rinse in cold water to help the plastic set the color permanently. It's a neat trick for softer plastics, though tougher, less flexible, plastics tend to resist, even when heated.

Well, that sounds a bit complicated but maybe it's worth a try. Thanks for describing it.
