Awesome! I'm sure this is a dumb question,I'm guessing you suspended them in resin(any problems with bubbles on them)?

Or you just always have a stiff drink waiting for you when you walk into your prop room! :love

Thank you, I enjoyed my visit, and I can use this if ever I'm accused of having too much stuff.

Do you mind if I ask you about something from page 1? There is a small but VERY VERY detailed Star Wars Millennium Falcon.

Can you tell me about who makes that and possibly where I can get one. That is a beautiful miniature.

Thank you! I LOVE your collection. LOVE IT.

Mate, think u need to speak to your local insurance agent to get some form of damage cover in place. Your collection is just amazing!

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - The Relic

Hi Alan, at first Respect for your collection, some props I want to have it too :eek

The paint job on the Kothoga is really good especiall the body/shed good color, the eyes are good but the eyes could have been better like this wet/glass effect you know and the tooth gum some darker :$ But its my opinion

Alan Castillo · Jan 9, 2013

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - The Relic

Thanks

. And you're absolutely right about the eyes. I was wondering what it was that was missing :lol.

Nothing a dab of gloss varnish won't fix

Howzat

I like the gums as they are though :cool

Stoney · Jan 9, 2013

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - The Relic

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - Highlander Display

Here's a 'project' that has been dragging its feet since last year which I finished today

I had a Saya for the Ramirez katana I got from Daryl (irishamericanlad), but it was black.

Got round to painting it the correct colour

.

And to complete the display, here's a fantastic Duncan early season 2 (collarless) handle with its tsuba, also made by Daryl. Stuck it onto the last katana I had waiting for it

.
