Just toying with some ideas, nothing set in concrete yet.

i cant put too much onto these side pannles as they will be overlapped with flames.
but this is just to give me an idea, the hand ofcourse sucks !! but dont worry about that lol.

dome definition. not really happy with it sso far so need s soem more tinkering. the paint is taking to the surface very nicly so theres alot of headroom for error.

i took the jaw out for now cause it wasnt lookign right. need to look at the photos and figure it out. once youve stared at the same pices fo paintwork for hours its very easy to make silly mistakes and overlook them !!

the skull and blade shaft is starting to take more shape, and ive roughed in the lower jaw area,

so far, so good ! im just getting itchy fingers cos i cant wait to paint these green flames ><

Signing out il tomorrow

ha ha thanks guys !

well, i have a series of little elves that live in my garage, i just leave the case in there over night and thats what happens !
i just leave little notes for them to tell them what to do :)

I'm totaly self taught, but i do spend alot of time lookign at other people work and trying to figure out how its done. i dont have any books or anything, but magazines like airbrush action are really good !

please stay tuned to this, as although it looks alright now, to me it looks poo ! lol. ill telly uo when im happy with it though !

Yeah, thinking about it... an airbrushing of a bleach background onto the off side of my next case would be sweet.
Too bad hes on the wrong side of the pond for me to beg any more.

At least he posts a lot of pics so we can enjoy vicariously. :beer:
