Usurper p1 Mask

[Beast Mode]

Mucho gracias to Lee for this fine specimen. But unfortunately, i really can't do this mask justice.

Hopefully this thread will evolve into a full P1 suit thread in the coming months.

Love what I can see in the spotting pattern you have going on. A bigger photo, by chance? Would really love to see your details...

[Usurper]

Off to a great start, and i am sure you will do the mask more than justice.

Really looking forward this one! It's a beautiful sculpt and looks like a joy to paint! Looks like it's off to a great start!

Thank you everyone. I have been doing some summer cleaning and haven't had time to do any painting for this week, but will start again tomorrow.

Here is a close up of the paintwork i have done so far, all advice is welcome

Stepping away from a project, for whatever reason, can sometimes help in the end. You regain your focus by taking breaks from it. Very nice start by the way. Can't wait to see it finished.

That looks very good in my opinion, are you using inks for painting ?

 

[Beast Mode]

Super small update. Painted the teeth, ordered some of Joe's dreads.

Right now i am only using createx airbrush paints

Now i think it looks a little like the P1...

Is looking great buddy, good job. But quick question, if you already glued the teeth, it won't make it difficult to paint the inside of the mouth?

Thank you Neo

I just placed the teeth on the mandibles for a quick picture. Though I did make the mistake of gluing the teeth on before finishing the mouth with my first P2 head.....that was a nightmare.

I know its not done and Call me crazy, but I like the albino look on it now.

Now that Kit has mentioned that, i am torn on what to do next.....


I like the albino look, but my mother saw a photo of it recently and said "Finish that **** up*

 

[nightshadow]

if you are gonna keep it albino, what color are the dreads gonna be then? im just trying to picture it finished

 

[Beast Mode]

Guess im going for the original look. Although it still looks weird to me, i don't know what it is =/.

Looking good fella liking how you have faded the colours out into the forehead area and liking the you use of the black spots.

Thats one ugly mother f'er

 

[nightshadow]

i think you did a great job!!!! i love it!!

 

[Beast Mode]

Brushed on a few layers of the clear coat and stuck in the dreads. But im not sure if i should shorten them or not.

Thank you all
