Thanks, guys.
I tried to have one strange color recipe in my set of S&SF figures, as a nod to how odd Scarlett's color were in the '97 set. Grand Slam gets the closest, but it looks fairly close to some of the Night Force figures, which is fine.
I can't take credit for the idea of filling the screw holes/rivets. Years ago there was a customizer turning figures into statues. I can't remember his name and didn't write it down anywhere and can't find it now when I look, not a regular here or on joecustoms. He glued the figures in locked positions and then epoxied EVERTHING to make it look like a solid sculpture. Great concept.
I just dialed it back to hiding whatever can be hidden without inhibiting movement.
Most of the time the epoxy doesn't interfere with the movement underneath. On a few I've done, the shoulder epoxy piece will just pop off like a hubcap if it doesn't want to be there when the articulation point is used. But normally the epoxy just stays where it is.
I have no idea how that works, but I'm not complaining.
