1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

I applied semi-transparent layers on the original skin tone. Went more opaque on the hair and eyes.

Wow! What medium do you use to get the semi-transparent layers effect!? Looks really nice~

OK, I got mine ready. It's got Soveirgn studios Clothes (which are amazing , everything is the right size, plus it's got a hot toys body, plus Paul Carson's head, a resin hat, and an awesome re paint from cheungkinmen!

Nice figure but the head looks nothing like me.

Acrylic based paints. Thinned with water in combination with dry brush techniques and fine detailing. It's a combo that's never the same when I re-paint a sculpt.

Make sure you have a dry sponge or paper towel handy when using the watered down mix...to blot it off if you don't like it.

Any specific brand of Acrylic color you use? I know there are tones of different ones.

Here you go! Yeah this is my favorite one from all my collection. I'm working in a temple of doom one, it's the only Indy I'm missing!



Thanks!

kyekye... dont know what he used.. but Liquitex acrylics are great quality.. just get the "soft body" acrylics as they are more fluid.. available at Michaels etc..

That works or any water based acrylic.

Very nice,

The shirt looks a bit clean though. A good dunking in a mug of black coffee would sort that out!

I recommend Vallejo. Superb finish and a great range of colours.

Thanks guys. I've been using Liquitex Soft body. I guess there are different ways of using it. I'll try this thin multi-layer coat method for my next project. I do have some Vallejo as well.

Just received Michael Fisher's whip & holster. I was happy with how I'd distressed sideshow's but Mike's work just adds a higher level of cool to any Indy figure.

PERFECT OLD INDY !!! Like this !!!
