Got some time to think about taking up the challenge. Gotta wait for that DCM Joker comes out, and I have to make sure the base head sculpt is gonna size up with it.

I could swear that one of the castors did a John Lynch head, but I'm not finding it. Anyone remember that, or is it just me?




Pretty sure it was Giga and it was a shapeways print. He had a bunch of the image characters when he first got into it.

Been working on him off&on..he's still a WIP. I got the torso,modified it,but I'm still not as pleased as I thought I'd be..I really wanted an armored CC? Idk? Gotta finish the jacket,still in the air on the legs. I like them,he doesn't need to hold ninja poses,so the lack of ankle doesn't bug me in him...not sure if I should add details..idk. Just not 100% happy

I picked up one of those Micron Pens that SWG uses (and I borrowed at Con). I've used them in the past for eyes, but forgot how easy it makes it. They still look a bit off, but they will be covered with some NVG.

It takes a bit to get used to it. One other thing that I can see is that you're putting the entire iris/pupil area inside the sclera. If you look at your eyes in the mirror you'll see that the top and bottom of your iris area is covered by your eyelids. By putting the entire circle inside the sclera you're giving him a surprised look 0_0

Try putting the circle area larger and making it go outside the sclera, and then clean up the top and bottom with your skin tone.

Well I might get the chance to fix it...my three year old seems to have made the head I was working on disappear.

By disappear I mean throw in to my bedroom and my wife can't find it. My fault for leaving it on a shelf with no way for him to get to it unless you leave him unattended for a few minutes so he can climb on the couch and get in to things he shouldn't.

Went and grabbed a whole bunch of Russian criminal tatts off the interwebnets, and am pondering getting that damn Testors decal system. Anyone know if it'll run on a Ubuntu/Linux-powered rig?

Maybe? If it's the Decal Maker software, it looks like it's Windows only, but that doesn't mean someone hasn't made a version that works for Linux, I just wouldn't know where to start looking.

Damn! Well,you need to make a mental note of it if you ever wanna make a winter dio! Looked like frost! I was like wtf? it's still in the mid 80°F's here,or around 27°C for your metric self:trollface:

Working on a duke!



I replaced the poofy scarf on the mouse torso with the collar from a poc duke..



It obviously needs a TON more sanding...BUT I made it so it's comes apart to be copied:D



When Vortious catches up I'll sent it to him...IMO it'd be nice to have another alternative besides that scarf or nothing at all..

It's gonna be more of a dio display base...but I guess it would be pretty easy to make another in 1:18th scale for my larger Delorean. I do have a Marty now.
