I'd love to see some more pics of that Rick! Looks like you did a fantastic job!

Same as the previous figures.

Thanks sir. Keeping my PO then at bbts.

Looks amazing! Was it difficult to repaint the face?

Not too much, I think, since the sculpt is pretty good to begin with. I had to lightly sand the bridge of the nose and forehead first due to some thick cracking paint so that prompted the slight revamp. Mainly needed to match the skin tone cuz of the sanding and to paint over the eyebrows in order to have a clean slate to paint the new ones on. Stubble needed touching up, and lips needed some color and shading, and repainted the eyes to be forward instead of off to the side.

That's incredible Noodlechow. Kinda inspiring me to try it but I can't paint eyes for my life at 1/6 scale, now imagine at this scale lol

amazing work...there are some seriously talented people around here

 

[mikedanger]

Yeah? Take a picture of your Daryl

close up pics are coming out blurry but even from this pic you can tell that the paint apps are better on this one

Here are some shots of my Maggie and Tyreese...along with Carl and his new gat. The weird thing is, Maggie looks like she has a lazy eye here, but honestly doesn't in hand (must be the angle or something)...

Thanks guys! I actually think the smaller scales are easier to work in since the level of detail doesn't need to be as exact.

has anyone found a drop leg holster that would work good for carl?

Simply amazing work! That's the Walgreens exclusive Rick head right?

Could fix one up with elastic bands and a holster from an extra figure like Andrea who might be able to be gotten for extra cheap since my Barnes and Nobles had em for about 4 bucks each. And weird he didn't come with a holster and gun in the first place since the original model sports all of it:

Thanks man! and yeah, just Walgreens head.

I think we might be getting a riot gear glenn

I got inspired by NoodleChow and did the legs switch for Rick. Then I got carried a way. I didn't like the length on his arms and I did a mod that took a very long annoying time.

 

[NoodleChow]

Man, that's kickass. been thinking about doing the same. trimmed from the upper arms and sunk the lower arms deeper into them?

Thanks, dude! Yup. I was trying to do just that. I messed up a little but it came out okay.

 

[NoodleChow]

sweet, just did the same thing and the proportions are very much improved. Ended up plugging the original peg ribbing in the hole with strips of cured Green Stuff so the arms stay snug at the new upper arm depth. Might do something similar to the shoulders so they're more streamlined but not sure yet.

That is an upcoming Gentle Giant statue...

 

[NoodleChow]

dang, but makes sense since it'd prolly be too soon to make a new Glenn in the line although it would look pretty good:
