I think I will call this one, “For my son…If I make it home”
I thought the black on the nose was a shadow until I took a close up to see how the eyes look. Must have touched it with the black from under the visor. Just a little touch up.
Dude—you nailed that “marsh” pattern!!! [:D[ Don’t tell me you haven’t painted camo before! Very nice figgie painting—face is really good as well…[Y][Y]
Thanks guys. Manny all i did was close my eyes, hold my breath, and start slashing paint [:P] Seriously… those little vertical lines were a real buggers. Darn near lost my nut do those[:S]
yeah John everything is OK with me. My sis was in town and she is going through some crap and needed some family around.
Another AWESOME addition to the peanut butter builds! You know Marc, this has the makings for an interesting group build! The Peanut Butter Brigade! [:D]
Pat he does have that 1,000 yard stare kinda doesn’t he.
Brian, not a bad idea.
Mike, yes but manny is sending mixed signals. He said nice things but did not want to marry it. So I don’t really know where I stand in the relationship. Should I call him? Or wait 'til he calls me? Can you call him and if he likes likes it or just likes it. No don’t he’ll know i asked you to. What if a doesn’t call? If he doesn’t want see it again I’ll just die.
HEY WHAT THE>>> Sorry I went temporarily schizo and that was my inner teenager coming out. Note I said TEMPORARILY[^o)]
Marc - You know Manny and his girls…they are quite shy and very reserved…Go slow…be gentle…I’m sure he will call soon. Once they call, I’m sure all will be well [6].
Also remember Manny’s status in society [bnghead] he may just be trying to keep up appearances [+o(]
I’m sure Mann’y’s girl and Mr Peanut will live happy forever [:'(]
And you claim you are not a figure painter?? Holy crap, man! Outstanding… I love the guy’s face. He just looks… tired, mean, angry, bitter, and dangerous, all at once…
He looks pissed that there isn’t enough rust on the model and that the barrel seam is showing—even though it is an aluminum barrel. Musta just been to an AMPS Show…
I would guess the figure is 1/16 scale & the Panzer 1/144? Reminds me of the footage of Hitler been shown models of the Panther before the prototype. Now that would be a expensive model for you collectors to acquire!
Thanks Boyd. yeah there are lots of situation where that face would be appropriate. Like when a shell ricochets off your turret… “Uh-oh, I think I crapped myself.”
And there is balance in the universe once again.[:D]
SFire, that’s what RBare reminded me of and planted the seed. Can’t find the pics though. Anyone know where they are?
