SilentSurfer's Laboratory: Come up to the Lab & See What's on the Slab.

Finally did my own Indiana Jones repaint. Actually, he belongs to my aunt, and I repainted him for her for Christmas.

More pics coming soon.

You are knocking out those eyes Nathan. You got Fords eye color down pretty good, just about perfect. Great job on the skin tones.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thank you very much, Boot. That kind of praise is the fuel in my fire.

This was a particularly difficult head to repaint since my aunt doesn't have the Exclusive with interchangeable heads. This one is permanently attached. I had to pull the jacket and shirt down as far as I could and really watch my aim with the airbrush. Probably took me longer than it would have otherwise, but still came out fine.

I loved that there was chest hair sculpted into this even though you don't ever see it when he's dressed up. I had to paint it as Small Studios did. I loved the way Josh's came out. I even went a little further and gave him straggling hairs up to his neck. Can't really see them too well in this shot with the glare though.

Thanks, Josh. Yeah, not an easy color to figure out. Seems to change from reference to reference. At least the shape of the iris was sculpted in this time. Saved some time not shaping them.

I got to hand it to you Nathan to be able to paint the sculpt while it is still attached to the body is an accomplishment in itself. I love what you did with the chest hair too. Not sure if your done but you might go back and put a bit of a slight dusting on his fedora with some lighter pastels. I think that would make his hat pop alittle more. Also can you please cover up his moobs they are distracting........

Shucks, I was hoping to induce eyes bulging out of heads. I'll have to try harder next time. Thanks.

The key word being 'art'. Thank you very much.

Thank you.

'Moobs' How can they be moobs without mipples?

A few more for you... with clothes this time.

Holy ____ man, so can the head be taken off? I mean there is a break there. Also would you be willing to take this on again Nathan? Outstanding work by the way.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thanks.

No, the head doesn't come off if you don't have the Exclusive. I painted it on the body with the clothes pulled down.

Yes, I'd be willing to paint another. That may make two I've got interest in now. PM me.

Holy crap! Your best repaint yet imo.

 

[darthjuan007]

Indy looks GREAT!!! Can't wait to see how Arnie comes out!!!!

 

[SilentSurfer]

We'll find out very soon.

Thank you very, very much. I procrastinated a long time taking on the legendary Jones until I was sure I could do him justice.

 

[joebizz34]

You did him justice and then some!!!

 

[MarfMaster]

Amazing work Nathan, PM sent!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Got it. I'll hit you back soon.

You did him justice and then some!!!

That's what I like to hear. Thanks, Joe.

Excellent work on Indy Nathan! I had actually been considering sending my EX Indy to you for a repaint, but considering all the Sideshow PF heads I'd want repainted I figured I would hold off (I don't want to go broke, since there are several that I think need a repaint). PM sent to you about another project I'd like to get you input on.

Nathan, this was already said and repeated, but...

Never, never I seen an Indy so terribly well repainted, or painted, period!

Incredible of realism!
:eek

My favorite Indy PF repaint to date.
