More progress shots from Scott.

Even if your not a Predator fan I think you'll be able to appreciate the attention to detail and the level of skill being displayed here. Scott has been sending me daily progress shots on this and with each new photo you see how much more detail he puts into the sculpt ...

The back - check out the belt:

Here is a shot of the back ... look at the exposed shoulder blade area:

I'd say in less than half an hour he sent me the following photo - he has refined the skin detailing of the shoulder blade area ... amazing!!!

I received these this morning ... the straight lines and circular port look damn near perfect to me!

Again ... if anyone is interested (why should I be the only person with a full sized Elder ... LOL!) just shoot me a PM and I'll forward you Scott's email address.

Received another 'daily' from Scott ... imho the anatomy on this is incredible.

All he basically needs to do is finish the right gauntlet and it will be ready for molding ... then paint!

That's amazing work. How's it looking now?

also, that is an incredible collection you have.

Thanks bud! I figured my old collection thread pretty much ran its course so I decided to stop updating it.

The first resin casting of the torso is out of the mold but no paint work done yet. The seams have been trimmed and cleaned - that's about it for now.

Here's that resin casting with one of Scott's busts resting on it just to give you an idea of what it will ultimately look like:

BTW, the original clay sculpture was damaged before being molded. It took Scott almost a day to get it back to where it was - he works incredibly fast! I would have probably spent atleast a week crying over it first. LOL!

When I have some cool paint shots I'll post them for you guys to see.

Simply love your updates. I guess I will continue to live vicariously through you until I am blessed with being able to afford such a beauty

wow, the level of detail is breathtaking1

 

[Simmon M]

Torso is primed and ready for paint ... Scott will start slinging paint tomorrow:

 

[Simmon M]

Paint has begun ... this is a progress photo less than 24 hours from it being primed and ready! Scott must have a clone army of himself painting these things ... I can't believe how fast he works:

 

[Slave1]

Man, that looks great! Cries out for legs and hands, too, though.

 

[darthwhitey]

Wow, Si...he works fast!

Really, really impressive...
