i thought that i'll get more responds here then on tfw2005 which is my main site
what can i do i love the watchmen comics,imo its the bible of comics ever- story art everything about it . when the movie was released i was realy dissapointed that again (like in the xmen movies) they dont wear super hero clothing but some kind of super hi-tech suits .... the movie was very good ,but the toys werent . here in slovakia we dont realy get all the stuff on time ,half a year ago in my weekly visit to the toy store i saw a "silver surfer " figure from the marvel universe series .i'm not a big silver surfer fanboy but the minute i saw it- it screamed -dr menhattan. then my thick head started working and i decided that i'll try to make al lthe watchmen characters from the marvel universe line . some time to scavenge and to buy the figs(took me 3 months to find a black widow on ebay for a sane price and shipping ),after a while that I gathered all the figs , i started working on the desings and color scheme ..... I tried all the paints i could - enamel doenst glue on the pvc plastic that the marvel universe figures are made from .tamiya acrylics do cling but not as good as i'de want them to , then my salvation came in the jin saotome post about the bulldog adhesion promoter and the P3 paints . I ordered me some p3 paints -when they arrived i started working on the figures again . in the last week all i was doing was building the accesories and the clothing for those figure , a whole week dedicated to watchmen I decided that those will real action figures not just repaints or remoding of other figures,i wanted them to b something that i would definetly buy if i saw them in the store , that meant accesories ..lots of them and gimmicks . so here is my weeks labor of love presented ( i'll post oz tomorrow cause there are some issues with him THE COMEDIAN base of figure - punisher sculpted a mustache/scar/shirt/both shoulder shields/gloves/knee pads/boot straps/smiley/arms added a gun holster/belt(ammo )/shoulder pad from a maverick figure accesories : rifles - M16 from black widow / AK 47 -from maverick knife - from indiana jones -mutt williams |
