a serious mojo crash has meant that I haven't done anything for ages. I'm able to find enthusiasm to start a build but a few days into it I lose interest so back in the box it goes. I was down in my cave today and whilst sorting out spied this headsculpt that I primed yonks ago [CENTER] [/CENTER]

So I thought bugger it I'll get some paint out and see what happens ( and we all like a little head from time to time right ? ) Mixed a dodgy base colour and brushed it on [CENTER]

Some jiggery pokery with a few different shades of the base colour along with using an old brush to flick little dots of paint onto it got me to this stage Check out the zombie eyes [CENTER] [/CENTER]

So there we have it ! Not quite finished as I need to refine the eyes with a bit more colour and gloss them and give the hair and eyebrows a quick dry brush with a lighter shade to add some life but I nearly finished something lol Pete

Wow! You smashed this out. I think it's superb, looks 100% real, you know apart from him not having a body and all. I would love to try my hand at large scale figures, been eyeing up a spitfire pilot and a couple of post apocalyptic figures in 1/16 that are a little pricey, just don't feel brave enough to try it and haven't really found a tutorial that gets me hyped. This gets me hyped, would love to know a little more of your process. __________________

Pete that looks scary real. The whisker and skin detail is very accurate. Glad you shared. Those post apocalyptic figures are loaded with detail. Wow! __________________ Ted pinterest pg. of scale models/dioramas: http://www.pinterest.com/intrstinpintrst/awesome-scale-models/
