I've finally managed to finish The Encounter and have retrieved my soul from the Devil . I hope you enjoy....

I did remember a bit late about the quills sticking out of his arm so I may go back and add these bits, but I doubt it

Overall a fantastic kit in all aspects, my only reservation is the Dredlocks themselves - a great and pioneering idea by Narin, but I did find that by the time I had removed the flash where it was present I had to repaint the black anyway as the sanding/scraping had left grey areas.

I gave Arnie/Dutch some reddened areas on his face to portray the 'hiding' he was getting, plus I also added a small scar where the Preds laser canon zaps him, a good job it was Arnie or he would have lost his arm no doubt.

The small lizard watching the scrap was a freebie from Thunderbolt Mountain miniatures.

The ripples on the water will dry clear, I was just getting impatient to post some images and wrap this up

For those with this still to build - go on, you know you want to!!!

I found that kit to be the most challenging one I've ever done...you did a great job on the paint and details. Be proud of that one ;)
 
Terrific paint job, it's Killer! Nice job at painting the armour, i been repainting my hot toys figure's armour and trying to capture the look it had on screen. It was tuff, but i managed to do it. Once again...the paint up is top notch.
 
Great work mate! the little lizard is cool ;) but i'm Lovin your paint up on this for sure.
 
Thanks all for the kind comments, glad it's over ;) - I'm glad I finally found a home for the little lizard
