Anyone pickup a Elder Predator!?!?!!??!

[gdb]

So glue is needed to put them on then?

Glue, tweasers, hobby knife and a steady hand. And a work space clear of debris so when those pesky quills go flying you have a shot of finding them.

I'm working off this referance photo. It's the only one I could find...

You know you want to...

Anyone else got some pics of their Elder with the quills? I'm still getting mine just right and am looking for more comparison shots. Please post.

I'm with King Darkness on the clean shaven chin. I had given my Elder some stuble but shaved it off last night. Now I'm trying to decide whether to give him some quills on his jaws and under the "ear" area.

Hey guys. Sorry for the late chime in. I just found this thread, and rushed to post this pick of the Predator Elder mask that just so happens to reside at Bob Burn's house. I got this exclusive shot myself, so have at it!
Sorry I didn't post it before now. Yes, I touched it. The dreads are seriously thin rubber just like a cheapo mask. And, what's with the blue dreads???? This is THE movie mask.

Nice job on your's King! Really cool! You got me wanting to collect these now. If I get one, THIS is the guy I get first!

Anyway, hope this helps out gang.

 

[King Darkness]

Thanks Les....Looks like I may add some over his eyes, in the eye brow area. Damn thats cool that you got to see that up close Les.

Wow, Les, thanks!

I have seriously overpopulated my Elder's head with quills... where were you when I needed you, Les? Just joking. Time to go plucking.

Sorry man! I am really sorry. I just saw this thread today, and was like "Oh crap! I've had an image of this for weeks and didn't think to post it!"

Hope it still aids anyone that needs it!

You gotta collect a Pred or two! After seeing your dog alien, I really want to see how you repaint a Predator head.

I'll secound that. You must pick at least one HT Pred Les just to do an awesome repaint. I have no doubt that you could do an amazing repaint on the sculpt and I would be very interested to see what kind of paint app you would give to the armor!

 

[figuremaster_les]

WERKIN' ON IT!
Thanks guys. I would love to hit the brush to these guys!

Here's my old Billiken Pred 1 kit (left) and that old 90's boxed toy that came out, repainted and reworked as an elder. Added all those spines too! (I get your pain King on the spines thing!)

Preds rule!

Les, those repaints are freaking BRILLIANT! You are the master!

 

[dekadentdave]

MY GOD LES! Is that the old Kenner Ultimate Predator? Man, that thing was a piece of crap but you managed to transform it into a work of art! Alright, Sideshow needs to hire you IMMEDIATELY! It will make up for Andy's departure knowing that we will at least have awesome paint aps like that.

 

[figuremaster_les]

Yeah! The Kenner one! I couldn't remember who made it.

He as a fun redo. Here is another shot of the two.

and the Elder alone

People miss this, but the eyes of a Predator are like squid eyes. Nasty!
The first ones were at any rate.
Wish I had my Argonauts Pred 2 done already! He's taken me so long...one day!
Anyway, maybe I will get that HT Pred Elder though.

 

[ragacin]

I got mine yesterday.

Ummm why is his skintone more...Pink?
I was expecting the standard yellow/brown color.
Not a big deal, it just suprised me. The pics I had seen didn't seem to show this.
