A new job and a new hobby kept me away from the 1/6 world for a couple of years. Glad I browsed this forum to see your magnificent work.

Wow! Incredible beyond words. Your painting skills continue to evolve and reach new heights. I remember a couple of years ago, casting a translucent resin to create a "real skin" effect was all the rage, but you've proven with your current work that it's possible to create a "real skin" effect...

Re: Aragorn PF!!! Thanks for the info about your base. That confirms that the mono-colored base I received was not the norm. Luckily, I had all the necessary supplies handy to make the repair because I customize 1/6 head sculpts (One Sixth Art). Otherwise, it would have been a pain to have...

Re: Aragorn PF!!! Great new pictures! I noticed from these that the top of the base on most of the Aragorn PF's were painted with color variations. The one I received looked unfinished and was painted one solid color.

Re: Aragorn PF!!! Thanks :) I really like how this piece looks with the Lurtz.

Can't wait to get mine too. Kudos for Hasbro for making such a nice 1/6 Ark.

Re: Aragorn PF!!! Congrats! I agree completely. It's really a magnificent piece and the best likeness of Viggo I've seen so far.

Re: Aragorn PF!!! I didn't like the color of the top of the base. It was a solid grey-green without any tonality unlike the base of the Lurtz, which was painted much better. Now the tops of the bases of both PFs match really well.

Re: Aragorn PF!!! Jen, I think that it was just improperly glued and came loose when it was shipped. Here's the pictures of the repaired piece and the repainted base. I also took a picture of the paints I used.

Re: Aragorn PF!!! I received my Aragorn yesterday and had the same problem with the lock of hair on his forehead. It looks to me like it's not really broken but was meant to be glued on in production as a separate piece because of the dowel-like end that fits into the other side of the hair...

Salva is thinking about making a limited number of figures for sale--probably the House and the Conan. He's also going to do a revised improved sculpt of the Marvel Wolverine.

Salva should be good at giving the sculpt that "actual" Wolverine feel :) He did the pencils for quite a few X-Men titles. Here's a couple pics of Wolverine that he did for Marvel.

Here's some more figures made by Salvador Larroca, the Marvel Comics artist. He sculpted and painted the heads. The House and Jackman Wolverine are mounted on Hot Toys bodies. The Marvel style Wolverine is on a Hot Toys muscle body. House Jackman Wolverine Marvel Style Wolverine

There's a wire skeleton imbedded into the silicone cast, so that it can be flexed and moved kind of like an animatron.

My friend, Salvador Larroca, wanted to share these pictures of his custom 1/6 action figure that he made. He not only sculpted the complete figure. He also cast, painted and costumed figure. The muscle body he created is also articulated! It's truly an incredible work of art. Salva...
