I promise to check it out Stickman.

It would mean a lot to me buddy. Thank you



I made the wooden poles that connect the wagon to the horse, kinda like these, remember you suggested this? He sold for a pretty penny.

Here's some pictures I snapped off last night of Caspy. I still plan on sewing those “ropes” all about his hood and making his jeweled embellishments

He looks great. Did you paint his hands? Those are great glasses. Where'd you get them? I have the ones made by In The Past Toys.

Did you take any pictures of that yet Sticks? What did you use to build this?

Yeah, the hands and shoes were painted grey. I bought the glasses on eBay. I've seen them on sale at other locations in the past. I don't remember where. I'll bet Ironman or KFog would know where to find them.

Ohh do you mean the Whip? Like the one you made? Ahh, gotcha, I thought you were talking about the steering rods for the horse. No, I didn't make mine yet. I will when I break my apes out again, After I film this opener for the GI JOE Film Fest. I'm not too keen on this current project, especially with the new HT Apes coming, and IM working on a new film script. I have a few things to build for the opener, but everything is in the 3 3/4 scale except when I use SS' Cobra Commander in a forced perspective with 3 3/4 figures behind him. As it stands Hasbro is getting involved and I don't know if this thing is still going on this year, they haven't got back to my friend. I have till the end of this month to complete it. My buddy that usually helps me is on a week's vacation.

PZ This is the main reason for not opening Dr. Z yet. I have too much on my plate right now. I can't wait to open him and have a place for him to spend the rest of his days.

I really like it with the helmet on. It's so cool that you even added the name badges. Nice touch.

I was fortunate to have a label gun in a co-workers office. Milo is my fave of the three apes here.

 

[angelofmusic2112]

Here's Jessica's version of Milo. I bought this one from her. I'm using her version of Milo as Dr. Galen for right now. Sorry about the bad pictures. I didn't realize (until now) that his nose was chipped.

This guy needs some more touchups on the paint.

That's awesome Ironman! I would love to see the TLC that he gives the apes! Are these apes yours?

They were, but now they belong to the master himself.

Here's some pictures I snapped off last night of Caspy. I still plan on sewing those “ropes” all about his hood and making his jeweled embellishments

I see you liked my Sam Elliott IS Caspy idea, huh? LOL
All those apes you showed are absolutely stunning. What an army we could amass if we ALL got together.

I love the bloodshot Gorilla, I thought he was in the film?

KFOG here's all the goodies I got from R&R this week.

Grant contemplates his best approach to Vicksburg. Everything opens and has real items inside, like bread, ammo, cartridges, shells great stuff.

Great stuff Angel, Here's my favorite custom Ape.

Thanks Kfog - But I'm sorry. I hate the long painting process for flesh tones. You just couldn't pay me enough to do this for you or for anyone else. It's a very long and difficult process for me. I like building and creating. That's great stuff! I hate all areas of painting, especially flesh tones.

Look at this picture. Notice all the colors in there? It takes enormous amounts of time doing it the way that I do. I'd really like to watch someone like Les Walker paint these sculpts. I know I could learn many of his his ways and improve the way I do things.

O'kay, then point me toward his direction and I will commision Him to paint it for me. Thanks Dude!
