Look good mate

Post by **Paul** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 9:57 am

Nice, that's gonna look so cool

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 10:15 am

Thanks Dudes.
I'm about to put some primer on him in a minute... once a get through all the email. haha.
Every morning tonnes of emails.

Post by **Lee** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 12:26 pm

Sweet

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 1:33 pm

What a difference some primer can make.
I gave him a nice coat of Model Master Acrylic Primer (cause I wanted to try it out and grey shows off the boo boos better so I can fix them)
It went on smooth and dried a satiny finish. And almost not smell.
I like.
So Vallejo and MMA primers both seem to paint well... next will be will it hold on to the surface well and will paint stick to it.

He's some shots... sorry... only man boobies.

You can really see the detail now mate wow

Post by **Lee** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 1:43 pm

Amazing what a coat of paint will do!

Post by **McLeod** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 1:45 pm

Looks cool, primer makes the world of difference eh

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 2:04 pm

Yup... now I can see all the mistakes that I have to fix up.
Not much.. just some seams that didn't smooth out with the paste. Still handy stuff.

Looking great any chance of a scale shot so we can see the size of this manly-est of men.

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 4:39 pm

Sure. Next bunch I'll pop one of my 1/16th tiger crew and a 1/35th figure in the shot.

Post by **HamilkarBarkas** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 4:41 pm

this looks excellent already, all you need now is a nice paintjob

you sure selected no the easiest type of figure but otherwise it wouldn´t be a challenge, right?

Post by **Paul** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 4:57 pm

Great stuff mate

Post by **Greg37985** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 5:08 pm

He looks well ard!!! Your gonna enjoy painting this Coen

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 7:25 pm

I hope it's a challenge... it certainly looks like one... the nightmares that I have about him certainly tell me so. haha

So here's a scale comparison of Mr. Campbell to a 1/16th and a 1/35th figure.
I think that when he's done.. and he doesn't look like Phyllis Diller, he'll look great in my living room next to a Campbell Coat of Arms.

Oops... wrong one.

I take it the big ones 1/16 or been on growth hormones from 1/35

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 7:43 pm

Haha.. yeah I put labels on them with Photo bucket but it isn't coming through the embedding.
Stupid software.
The feller in the back is 1/16 the wee dude in front is 1/35.

Post by **HamilkarBarkas** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 7:53 pm

What a handsome lad the good old Wittmann is!

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 10:09 pm

I always thought that he looked a little bit like Mr. Bean. Bu that's just me.

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 10:10 pm

I managed to swing a bit of a video of Mr. Campbell getting primed.
I also finished off the Falcon.
I'm putting together the final reveal vid now.

Smart

Post by **Nige201980** » Sat Sep 07, 2013 9:42 pm

He's looking really smart mate

Post by **Coen** » Sun Sep 08, 2013 12:54 am

Thanks fellas. It's supposed to rain like a bugger all day tomorrow so I'm hoping to get some work done on him and the T34.

Post by **Greg37985** » Mon Sep 09, 2013 8:31 pm

I have observed that big Wittmann is holding a gun to the Scotsmans back.. perhaps theyve had a few a drinks and its the Scotsmans turn to buy the round

Post by **Coen** » Mon Sep 09, 2013 10:13 pm

Hahahaa.... Maybe.

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 12, 2013 3:19 am

Just a brief bit of work. Fixing up some mould seams.

Some nice work there my friend

Shane.

Post by **Coen** » Thu Sep 12, 2013 10:32 am

Thanks buddy.

Yeah, it would be better if I knew what I was doin haha.

I'm sorta makin most of it up as I go.
I have a few books about it, but the fellas in the books are so far beyond my level of skill I can barely understand or even fathom the work that they're trying to show.
Sometimes I think that they just put out these books to show everyone how awesome they are.

Post by **Greg37985** » Thu Sep 12, 2013 11:34 pm

This guy is gonna look so good when he is done, looking forward to the next video. Hehe your going to do a geisha as well, you`ll so enjoy it and you can let yourself go on the colours and with your diorama skills surely a cherry blossom tree or a pool with some Koi carp

Post by **Coen** » Fri Sep 13, 2013 12:17 am

I'd have to scratch build the koi, I don't think there's an aftermarket 120mm koi kit out there haha.
Hey... maybe if I talk to Aaron haha.
Thanks for the ideas Greg. I hadn't thought that far ahead... I am now.

Post by **Coen** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:35 pm

I finally got a bit of work done on Mr. Campbell here. I'm hoping to make some real progress on him over the next few days.

I'll have some pictures up soon.
Here's a vid of what I did this morning.

Post by **Coen** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:57 pm

Here's a few shots of the progress.
I'm about to go put the last shade of skin on him in a minute, then I'll do his hair and see how that goes.

This is now officially FUN!!!!!

Post by **HamilkarBarkas** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 6:21 pm

Top notch, i´m watching your progress video at the moment

Post by **wappynutter** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 6:23 pm

Wow......

He's coming on a treat Mr Coen Sir......

That tartan is gonna be the make or break though I'm sure...

And I think I should inform you that after careful study.... I can confirm that you sir have the very rare condition known as "modelcaholism"....
That combined with your insomnia has turned you into a first class ISM moderator....
Ha ha ha .....

Keep up this enthusiasm dude...... Do you ever have an "Off" day?
Well done..

Post by **Coen** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:17 pm

Off day?
Do you mean do I take a day off? I'm retired, every day is my day off haha.
If you meant off day as in a bad day or a day that I suck... every day is and off day haha.

Post by **Schoof** » Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:19 pm

Wow nicely done Buddy......

i`m just missing the glasses

Great work so far dude.

Glad your enjoying the world of figure painting.

Post by **Coen** » Fri Oct 11, 2013 9:08 am

Thanks guys,
Yeah, it's really growing on me. It's not like any other kind of modelling.
I think this might be my new time killer.
When I have a few minutes to do something I can just pick one of these up a dabble.

It's a super branch of the hobby: music on, kick back, put brush to paint, get lost in the detail - bliss.
Mr Campbell is looking rather splendid

Post by **Coen** » Sat Oct 12, 2013 1:49 am

Yup... it certainly is.
Thanks Rob!!

you can't beat a good figure painting project, I always found it very relaxing just focusing on a single figure and going mad with the details

shane.

Post by **Coen** » Sat Oct 12, 2013 3:22 am

I can't argue that Shane

Post by **Coen** » Sun Oct 13, 2013 12:39 pm

Just a wee but of work done this morning.
I finished the skin.
Than means that I can start the madness of the tartan.

Post by **DC87** » Sun Oct 13, 2013 12:51 pm

Skin looks great

, I might recommend a bit of shadow to define his chest and muscle but it isn't a necessity. Good luck with the tartan, you will need a steady hand so none of the

for you.

Post by **HamilkarBarkas** » Sun Oct 13, 2013 1:40 pm

Lovely, the hair looks great aswell! I do not envy you when it comes to painting the tartan pattern, this will be difficult and i have no idea how to handle it apart from using your steady hands and a good brush.

Great work Cohen - he's really looking the part

Post by **Paul** » Sun Oct 13, 2013 5:12 pm

Yeah buddy, he is looking sharp, great job mate
