Thanks for the comments guys.

@pjstan, the german indy is in the works

The facedown is the voodoo doll. Bought the head of markpoon on thrpf. Then using a guide from therpf o made the voodoo doll myself .

Love it bbl. But what's up with the clothes lying face down on the bottom shelf of the last picture?

 

[Rogerbee]

Yup, that's one nice collection!

That set up of Henry at his desk is awesome. I would love to see some close-up detailed pictures of that.

 

[stshammgod]

Nice bbl! What a great, focused collection! I haven't seen a collection like that in a long time. It ooks like you're very passionate about Indy, which is a great thing to be passionate about!

Thanks guys. I used to collect all sorts of figures. Sold most of them. Now i only focus on indy and of course some musthave pieces like the enterbay bd T2.

Here is a pic of henry's desk. He also has a 1/6 leap of faith painting but still have to figure out how to hang it behond him.

Next a WIP german indy. I added more beard, the wound and busted lip and a little sweat. Next to that i accented the wrinkles and made him a little more tired with a danker tone under his eyes. Still have to paint the neck and worthless Xseries body.

Thanks to pjstan for the upper outfit and ht head by the way.

Best,

Robert

Nicely done,

The only disappointment with the SSC Henry was that they felt the need to compromise the shape of his head in order to get the hat to fit.

I went with Headplay's head and was much more satisfied with the shape and size and the hat even fitted.

I know what you mean. I did a paintjob on my other henry which looks a lot better. I still think the likeness of the ssc head is better. Especially if do light paintup like the beard, underneath the eyes, wrinkles etc.

Robert

 

[Rogerbee]

Yeah, that does look good.

Where did you get the fabric hat from?

 

[pjstan]

bbl,
I am digging your german Indy. Thanks for the pic!

You only repainted? No mods? Why does your ht Indy head look more like ford than mine or others? Great job!

@rogerbee: i got it from mike. Bought the henry clothes from him and he had a spare hat

@pjstan: when my other items arrive, i continue the mod. Squakysqualls will send me the bazooka if the aussie shipping doesn't screw us over

@stevei: Well i figured out that if you lightly add more eyebrow Ford just pops up on the ht sculpt. So that's why i wanted it for the german indy. Ht sculpt starts to look off the more you look from the side, but the eyebrows help.

Awesome! I will definitely be trying that with mine.

Mike sent my bullwhip out today. Had him do a 'streets of cairo' style Raiders whip with the front portion of the whip wethered and used. Based off a whip that Dusty from Crease n Corral makes. Google him if you're looking to buy a real whip. Great guy with great talent. Can't wait to see Mike's work in person!

 

[Evil_Ash]

bbl what kind of paint did you use for bringing out the beard and eyebrows? Also, did you remove the guyliner or just paint over it?

Interesting with the eyebrows, I found that, on the SSC sculpt, Ford came out more if you faded the eyebrows. His own aren't that dark.

I bought a Raiders set from him last month and the quality is awesome. Really makes the Indy look more screen accurate. The whip coils nicely and it looks awesome.

Well i bought this sculpt from pjstan. The guyliner was already gone. With my first indy i painted over the guyliner. My other i just scraped it off. It is a lot less work but carefull not to scratch the eyes.

I used aqryl paint. Black mixed with brown, put some on you brush, smear on your pallet and watered it down by simply dipping your brush in water and mixing it with your small paint mix.

With the beard you add, then sponge it with toiletpaper. Hard lines you rub away. Sometimes you can make the paper a little wet. When your done. You randomly rub off some more in some spots to make the beard uneven. For the finishing touch get i small brush and with less watereddown paint you make tiny beard hairs extra. Same goes for the eyebrows.

The great thing about aqrylliq paint is if you mess up, you can rub it off easily with water.

Blood is a mix of red and brown by the way.

Best,

Robert

Thanks guys. There should be more pictures in the custom indy thread. I posted several progress pics. Could be a while ago. I used hot water on the hat and bended it here and there and i used fullers earth on it.

Here are some pics of my indy collection:

I got the other pfs too.

Best,

Robert

This is one of the coolest collections I've ever seen Looks like a lot of work went into it.

Hopefully, by the middle of next month, most people, me hopefully included, will have their WGP sculpts in hand and more bashes will begin to emerge.

I'm still very much in two minds as to whether I'll use my WGP head or not. Perhaps it'll depend on how good it looks on other folks' bashes as to what I decide to do. I still have the SSC so I'm not bothered if I don't, we shall see....
