    Shiny

    I was fortunate enough to come across a few Trevor Grove head sculpts from Firefly (my favorite TV show of all time). This is the first time I've worked in the 1/6 scale. I thought the painting would be easier, but it wasn't really. Here's what I've got painted so far...

    Excellent job, Boss. I looked up another paint job on this sculpt, and you nailed it. You have a better tone for the body you used and the eyebrows look better positioned on your version (not angry looking). Very nice.

        Thanks. I'm pretty happy with it. This is a figure I've wanted for a long time, and I think I've finally given up on the Quantum Mechanix version ever coming out.

        and, I'm not sure what this means...

          Ah! No thanks. The sculpt on this is so good, a skin texture is already there.

            Omg yes 1:6 painting is super difficult and you can see every single mistake! Well done!

              The paintjob looks fantastic. I can't wait to see your completed Mal.

                ^^ me too! I was able to pick up most of the parts to finish him. I just need to make the pants and order some boots.

                      That is a cool Jayne. Lots of potential for fun accessories with that one, too... the cap, Vera, grenades, etc.

                      That seems like a condition you ought to remedy.

                        That's the middle-est form of praise.

                          I've got the cap and Vera. They didn't make it into the pictures yet.
