Life size PREDATOR Bust finished

[Lord of the props]

Hello guys

I just wanted to show some pictures of my latest painted Predator bust that
I finished for a customer. I painted it with my new airbrush and I am pretty
happy with the result. The bust was sculpted by Daniel Bravo, one of the best
Predator heads out there.
I also painted the eyes. First with a few dark colors, and then orange, green, white, yellow and black. Then I added a layer of epoxy on top.


What do you think?

WOW... :confused
Very nice.
I need to get one of those myself - not that I could paint it even remotely this well, but it looks like a fun paint job, and a cool bust to have finished.:thumbsup

Damn, that's one of the best paint ups I've ever seen. I bet that looks awesome where you've got it displayed!

 

[Forestmoonstudio]

Awesome. He looks like he came right off the screen.:thumbsup

Good God, man! I don't even have the words!
It makes me want to pull my old airbrush out of storage!

Rarely does someone nail it. I think this one has for sure. Rotten banana all the way!

Oh thanks guys, you are too kind.:rolleyes

When I started working on this Predator head, my goal was to do it better than the other Predators I have done before.
And the most important thing was to match the exact "rotten banana look":lol
And then the new airbrush was very helpful when working on the patterns.

That is another high quality preformed job. thumbsup

Fantastic job, Bjorn. I can't tell you how impressed I am with your recent projects.

It makes a nice change to see a pred with the mandibles closed, too!

Brilliant build-up and finishing paint job! I always look forward to seeing your work.
