@ xdmray......many thanks for the kind words and help, greatly
appreciated.

@SkyBlazeHunter....thanks for the kind words.

@PredatorX98...thanks for the kind words. I'm somewhat caught between adding more detail to the skull or leaving it sort of how it is. From looking at human and animal skulls, there isn't a huge amount of detail.

I'm still not certain on the direction of it, but wanted to make it on like a nightmare (I know, sounds odd). Still may sculpt a thigh armor organic style that has a set of ribs attached to it. Maybe a tracker cannon and a bi-organic bacplate.

Thanks for looking!

Not much of an update, but I touched up the P2 hands a bit. I wanted to try and add depth to the paint up and the hands aren't sealed yet and don't have a gloss on them. I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. Now onto repaint the head and touch up the torso as well. I might end up sculpting a backplate [mix between organic and tech/traditional] and will probably be latex foam back to save on costs. I'm still up in the air about what to use for the left gauntlet, either just more of a leather wrist strap like the vikings wore or use a generic gauntlet from monsterroom? The alien skull fell and broke, so I was looking at some basic armor to sculpt for it or just wait until the pred skulls are done and use one of those like Narin did for his Bad Blood. I like how on Manders Bad Blood there are just straps for the thigh armor, but still am ultimately up in the air with it. Going from what's in my mind and not paper is showing it's ups and downs

Thanks for looking and comments are more then welcome!

For the predator skull, i found this on a website, its from sideshow and i thought it may be helpful as a reference picture, http://www.hobbyco.com.au/product/show_item.php?plu=SID400048 Like you said, there isnt a heap of detail, but there are still parts like the quill holes that can be a bit of annoyance, hope this helps!

Great looking set of hands Doug! Getting the color right is hard, but it looks like you did a great job!

Thanks guys. I might redo the P1 skull to have it look more like the sideshow version, but am still up in the air about it. Originally I wanted the skull to look like it came from under the mask of Usurper's P1 [Termokk's too]. I think it would be pretty cool to see the P1 skull sitting next to a P1 mask.
