Thanks again, guys. :D

You do some really nice work, wish I had your skills.

I wish I had your skills at casting and customizing. I can't wait to get the casts I ordered from you - they will make their way onto my customs and into my dio photos. So you'll actually be helping me accomplish the shots I wanna take. :)

Larger version of my Sept. banner entry.

MI6 agents Cate Archer and James Bond have managed to steal the nuclear launch codes, and are about to exit the enemy's secret facility hidden under his mansion.


Closer view of the agents.
Bond is simply a "Golden Compass" Lord Asriel head on an "A-Team" Faceman body.
Cate Archer is made from SDS resin parts (head and torso), ROC Scarlett arms, Ren Scarlett thighs, and ROC Baroness lower legs. She's supposed to be wearing dark nylons, but I couldn't find bare upper legs on short notice.

can i fly out to australia and use your dios sometime :)

I don't have any permanent dios, unfortunately. I usually set things up on my workbench, or outside, take a bunch of photos, then tear everything down again. Having worked in theatrical scenery, I've learned to work quickly.

But you're more than welcome to fly out here and meet my pet spiders and snakes. :D

I should have known when I voted for the 3rd dio for the September Banner it was yours. This part of the forum has become my top spot to visit before I go any place else. You are truly the master of the "one shot on the spot dioes". Just 1 question: where can I find your Lara Craft custom figure on the forum?

I was going crazy not being able to do dio setups outside, so I did this quickly on my workbench last night.
While my phone's camera is awesome, it doesn't do night shots very well (or maybe I'm doing it wrong).
Them's the breaks, I guess.




I edited this shot on my phone's built-in photo editor.

I forgot I'd taken these behind-the-scenes pics:

The desktop setup of our current banner - just baking soda sprinkled on styrofoam. Snake Eyes has a piece of toothpick stuck in the peg hole in his foot, to keep him standing.



Here's the one from my October entry - fake fur "grass", cardboard gravestones, and a plastic plant.
I used a desk lamp with a blue T-shirt draped over it for ambient lighting, a green Nerf tac light for side lighting, and a small pocket flashlight for back lighting.

Definitley reminiscent of the original Night of the Living Dead.

Just a quick desktop dio shot of my new Retaliation Lady Jaye.


Her face doesn't look bad from the right side, but any other angle shows the puffy-looking sculpt and Jay Leno chin. I'm definitely gonna need to work on that.

Can you gun nuts tell what this weapon is supposed to be? Looks like a tacticooled M4 or 416 to my untrained eye.

In my opinion, one of the only highlights of the figure is the nicely painted weaponry

That's exactly what it is...flip up iron sights, red dot, grenade launcher, supressor...not sure what's in front of the red dot, maybe a light?
