What's next?

Right, that is the APC done and dusted and the pistol commission is off to its new home tomorrow.
All the pictures taken that I need for my portfolio... time to draft that CV and see where it takes me.

 
There are more tasty pictures in the gallery - go have a look!

Done, done and...well almost done

This week I have mostly been finishing off those tiny niggling little bits that stand between me and completion.
I am happy to say that the Na na na pistol is completed (all apart from the varnish layer), the APC display base is finished and successfully photographed and now..... (insert drum roll here)... I have finally got around to doing something about my hand sculpt that I started in January...

Rather than watch paint dry

To avoid fiddling with the pistol and allow the paint plenty of time to dry - I hit the display base in earnest. Needless to say, it is now complete and I have taken a couple of test pictures. It seems to work just the way it was planned to...  now to play around and get some really atmospheric pictures.

Just can't help but fiddle...

While photoshopping the paint prototype, I also started to tweak....


I liked the more streamlined look, so hit the workshop....
  

Modifications made, off to paint it goes...

It's so very close to completion....

Nearly there

Ok, almost finished the last couple of bits I need to finish off my portfolio/cv for circulation....

Painting is the forecast for the next week or so... here is one of the concepts for the final paint of the Na NaNa pistol....
