and now i might paint my SE grenades like that.
i knew something seemed "off", so i painted the fuse caps black. but those gunmetal 'nades look so much more realistic and "worn".
statue is a rad idea too. more use for comic pack figures! hahaha
great work man. you really have amazing talent with paint. very "hobby grade" looking. great pics too!
Hey thanks for the compliments! That is 100% a GTG sword, and the grenades(and other metal type stuff) is done using something called Rub'N Buff. I first lay down the base color(mostly black) then a very tiny dab on my finger, and i just rub it over the grenades, belt buckles, buttons, medals, etc...it literally takes seconds, and I highly recommend it. It really gives a nice worn, scratched the paint off to metal look.
Alexander is exactly who I was thinking as well, and when I get the Destro comic pack, it is who he will turn into.
Here is Destro with some color (not sure if I should have left him alone or not) I think I;m pretty happy how he turned out.
And I started this repaint of my comic pack Duke,into one of(if not my favorite) Joe when I was a kid) Starduster. I thought he had the coolest stuff, my favorite gun, but silver, a jet pack, and the cool black visor. I am waiting on a 25th style jet pack, and another helmet with a visor so I can finish him. Not sure how I am going to deal with doing his gloves yet.
thanks for looking!
