1 and 2 are mine. THANKS, hahaha.

If you want, add 11. Mine too.

That is really outstanding, Agro!

 

[SilverStar17]

Please don't stick your figure in the toilet!

Based on Agro's response, I was also worried that he was actually going to do it!

Nooooo, ha ha ha. I have readed the info about "water treatment" thinking "He is kidding me, but I suppose that I must wet figure clothes with water... and that's all". But... better if somebody tell me the truth about it.

If you knew how I took this picture... With a little lantern in one hand, my camera in the other one, and Ikea "Detolf" leds... Nothing more... But, THANKS!!

 

[QuiGonFishing]

Sounds like you've ripped off my technique! Scrambling lawyers...

It's pretty much just soaking the figure's clothes so that they hang more naturally when you put them back on.

That's a stunning photo Agro. Apart from lift the hairline a touch did you do anything else to the face? Repaint eyes? Eyebrows? It's the most expressive I have seen "stoned Luke" - in fact he doesn't look stoned!

If the "angry / intense" expression is nothing more than trick of the light then you did an awesome job.

Thank you very much, Somethingbrite! Yes, I lift the hairline to show the eyebrows (angry/intense expression). Nothing else. LIGHT. Light is ALL taking pictures in a photoshoot.

For me, this figure looks better with light from above. Shadows under eyebrows, mouth... etc.

A literal "LOL" moment for me! Thanks for that. Poor stormtrooper though. Toilet looks clean at least! Question is: is he a floater?

Great shots as always, Matrix! Its a very good sculpt, far superior to DX07, IMHO. Very hard to capture in pictures. Your shots are right up there with the best I've seen.

 

[SilverStar17]

Great pictures, matrix.

Like QGF stated, it is a very good sculpt; better than what I think most give it credit for. It's difficult to capture in pictures, but for many sculpts, bringing out the likeness to it's maximum all depends on lighting and angles. The only thing I disagree on that QGF said is that I feel the DX07 sculpt(s) bears a slightly better likeness to Hamill post surgery than what this sculpt does pre surgery, in my opinion.

Great pics Matrix. Love this fig. Especially the sculpt.
