PT Greek, P1 Stunt Bio Paint Up

[lordderak]

Hey Guys and Gals


This is my first Bio paintup and its the P1 stunt bio i just got from George....
Ive never painted a bio in my life and im gonna be taking on this one..lol

First thing i did, was dremmel out all the imperfections and the eye sockets to make it as smooth as possible.
The bio has some flaws as George has already said numerous times, but for a bio with this heritage it can be forgiven.

I then washed the bio with soapy water and dried in in the midday sun, then came a coat of Grey primer and another when that dried.

I then went over it with Matt black paint, i probably didnt need the primer at all...lol but layers are the key when getting the P1 right...

Thats all i have for now




Some new pics added


dunno where to go from here...help


fits like a dream onto manders P1 too

Nice ..cant wait to see it finished ..can you believe, I havent even made myself one...that is why Im excited to see these paintups

I'm subscribing to see how this turns out

Looking forward to see this paint up

Looking at the KJP1 I painted for you - how does the shape and size compare to Georges? I'm thinking they should be VERY close in size and shape since they share the same lineage.

They look pretty close ..Jaime's may be a wee bit smaller ..it had been cast a couple of times to get his final versions so there would be some shrinkage

From what I have heard and seen...lots of layers and weathering. You did just fine for your first bio...practice makes perfect my friend.

ahahahahaha, someone wants to know what the original was...lolz. Sorry man, couldn't resist. As Damon said, just throw layer after layer at it. Once you reach about 15, it should look pretty decent. Good effort though, especially for a first!

Lol...im not the first to ask that question then i take it?
Yeah, thanks for the advice Paul, i do take all of it onboard.
The last pic, is as light as it should be i think, but then i went overboard with the shading, its a dead ringer for the sideshow paintup on the scar bio, so i must have gone wrong somewhere..lol

I would say you could break up the shading a little, make it look a little more random, and that will make it look a lot better. The uniformity is all that's holding it back a little right now.
