After working on Bloodshot I really started to get interested in Valiant characters. I mostly wanted to redeem myself, feeling like I didn't do him justice, so I wanted to make another character from the series that looked better. So, I chose Rai. I still don't know much about this guy, but I know that it's a titled passed down from generation to generation, and started based upon Bloodshot himself. Thus the similarities in both looks, and I believe powers. I think this specific version is Tohru Nakadai, the 42nd Rai. And what really threw me when reading one comic was how in one panel he had a sword, the next a bow, then nothing. It didn't make sense until I read that he pulls forth weapons from his own body. I won't try to explain more for fear of butchering it worse. lol On to the figure!
Sanded down all the joints so the white paint would survive a moving arm. For some reason I got the notion to apply a little bit of sculpt to his lower legs to show where his pants end. I cut the wings off the Namor feet and smoothed that over, then put a little sculpt on the head for the portion that comes off his sideburns. Hardest part was the eyes. They're white like the rest of him, but in the comic they outline them with black so they still stand out. That was harder than trying to apply a pupil. One came out well, but the other still looks a little off. I may try again to fix that. Recipe: Body - MU Bullseye Lower Legs - MU Namor Head - Thor movie Hogun
