Title: Randalf Streisand, a Goblin Mechanic by Painting Buddha
Post by: Ssasho0 on August 23, 2015, 05:01:22 AM
Hello,

being on summer vacation means that I can't really build models, but I want to do some modelling and my answer to this issue is this fantasy bust of a goblin mechanic - Randalf Streisand, one of the Nose Bro's :)

This a extremeli fine resin bust by Painting Buddha and comes together with instruction videos. Here is my first ever attempt at painting such a miniature, not quite succesfull, but probably during the second repaint it will be way better :)

Best regards,
Sasho

That looks great, Sasho, but how did you get my brother-in-law to pose for you?  ;D

That's quite a snout and he looks like he could do with some dental work, extremely well done Sasho.

Sasho,
I think the bust is AWESOME! Quite an unusual subject but very well done!

thanks you for the positive comments :)
I like how this one is shaping, it is slowly coming to where I want it, but still a lot of work ahead. Last night I got the goggle lenses painted and started on the goggle leather and the leather cap. There is a lot of work to be done on those two, especially the cap which is in very early stage. Only the future will tell where this journey will end :)

best regards,
Sasho

How do you chaps paint in the ways that you do? You must have either some form of artistic training or simply a better eye for colour than me - I simply could not begin to get a model to look as good as this! Congratulations and keep us posted on progress.

Ssasho, I think this guy is beautifully ugly! Congratulations!!

The eyes are great! I also love the way you have the reds and greens playing off each other. The helmet looks good, as well.

Keep going, dude!!

Cheers from NYC,
Michael

Michael, how insensitive of you! My identical twin is very self conscious about the tragic farm "incident".  :'(
