Hi All. I haven't posted in very long time, so since the board moved I figured it would be a good time to post again.
I really loved the SS Connor MacLeod figure but wanted to make him a bit more movie accurate. The mods I made were pretty basic but I think make a big difference. First off, I painted stubble on his face. I don't think there is an entire scene in the movie where Connor is clean shaven, even in the flashback scenes. I then switched out his blue **** for a white one. His shirt looks blue in the parking garage fight but I think it's only the lighting, cause when he's in the police station it's clearly white. I replaced his regular hands with spare gloves from the BTVS Spike exclusive, which I dry-brushed brown. He wore gloves in all the sword fight scenes so I thought they would be more appropriate than regular hands. Then I repainted the swoosh on his shoes grey instead of red. I can't tell exactly what kind of shoes he's wearing. They look kind of like ASICS so I painted an extra stripe across the swoosh. They aren't exact but they look better than the red swoosh. And that's about it. Like I said, the mods are pretty simple but effective to make Connor more movie accurate. Hope you like it.
Oops. I think I posted my pics wrong. Let me try again.
