Everyone, please keep in mind he’s really busy… So it might take some time for him to get back to you.

 

[D.R.37]

Maybe I’ll try reaching out to him on here since I’m not on Facebook. Any other email options,TDP?

Yes, please private message me your email address and I will send it on to him.

By the way, would you be interested in a 1/6 scale Two Tubes head?

 

[D.R.37]

Pm sent.

I definitely be interested. How could you tell? ;
Just the daunting task of collecting and most likely having to handcraft that outfit seems a bit ambitious.
Not to mention that blaster rifle

Pm sent.

Thanks so much.

ha. Yep an official Two Tubes would be awesome. Ace could do the head, but the entire character will be a challenge to bash.

For mine using Master Enaud’s sculpture, I think I started with a jacket similar to this one:
TOY CITY/DRAGON/ALERTLINE/ 1/6 RED ARMY/RUSSIAN/SOVIET TELOGREIKA QUILTED JACKET https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/293039419971


I plan to make a different character next time.

 

[generalgrevious]

yeah i think i got two of them packed away. just have to find them and do something with them when i find time.

 

[Qrest Fourstar]

That Ree Yees is awesome! I'd like in on one of those.

Cool! Please private message me your email and I will forward it on to the artist.

I am trying to help him out so he has more time for sculpting. And yes, there are more awesome aliens in progress and on the list.

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

^ I forwarded your emails per request. Thanks. If we can keep sending him funds, that will help us get more 1/6 scale aliens.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Thanks so much.

I think I will call this one done and move on to the next one.

Thanks to Ace for the awesome 3D printed 1/6 scale alien head. So talented! Every time I paint and kit bash a character, I hope I honor the artist.

Damn -- that's awesome!!!


I cannot believe with all the characters you're making, even Cloudriders... that you haven't made Benthic Two-Tubes!!!

Why, oh why...?

I have been hoping for an official version since the clothing will be so difficult to kit bash.

However, I had to try a while back. AND Yes, the Two Tubes head is on my priority list for Ace if he has time and continues to sell sculpted heads.




BTW
I should have these 3D printed heads from Ace in my hands soon. (All available for order now. I can forward PM'ed email addresses or people can contact him on Facebook.)

Wow... you rocked it!
Spoke with Mati for a couple orders and hit him up for my highly sought after Benthic sculpt (blaster rifle pending). Have some time to scrounge up the outfit. Any recipe hints?

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

Cheers. Mati's great, right?

Here are my very kit bash notes:

 

[D.R.37]

I pinpointed the chest piece and gloves but that jacket and respirator pipes was the main thing I had no idea where to begin. Shirt/tunic is something that may have to be custom tailored. Thanks Steven!

Awesome start! But aren't you making Edrio there? Benthic doesn't have the flight pack on his chest.

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

^ Right on.

I like the Tognath character design so much, I was seeing how close I could bash eggmates Edrio and Benthic. (It was great to see Benthic in Solo and Edrio in Rebels.)

I was thinking that I could not get close enough to the characters so felt like giving up. ...So I focused on other characters.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Well like I said great start. I wish you didn't give up... but yeah its a tough design to get right on the shirt/tunic, so I totally understand. Would be an awesome character once finished though.

I hope a suitable tunic/overcoat becomes viable because I think everything else could be sourced as you've posted many parts.
