That's freaking amazing Mikey. I'm usually pretty good at spotting a good likeness with bad paint, but I had no idea the MediLecter was that spot-on.

...gotta love Mikey's work!

and Mikey, sorry about not being able to meet up in New York... maybe next time! (and there will be a next time... we loved it there!)

 

[Customikey]

Hey Darren, no problem! I'm in Annapolis right now, playing El Gallo in The Fantasticks. Having a lot of fun! Brought all my paint stuff with me so I can paint during the day and perform at night. Living the dream, that's what I'm doing!

I know it's been a while since I updated here. Always happens when I go off on an acting gig. Rest assured, I AM painting, though. Here's what's currently on my table:

Full work-overs of:
Boromir
Gandalf the Grey
Indiana Jones

Head repaints for:
Faramir
Lecter (Medicom)
Jigsaw (Medicom)
Hitler (Drastic Plastic)

There's more waiting in the wings, and as soon as I get my new computer (mine died, I'm using my Stage Manager's), I'll be posting like mad. In my camera, I've got pics of Christopher Lee as Dracula and Legolas from TT.

 

[Customikey]

YAY!! I finally got my new computer, and I'm ever so happy. Among other things, it means I can start updating this thread again. As my inaugural update I give you my repaint of Christopher Lee as Dracula. I've been sitting on this one so long, I can hardly believe I finally get t share him with you. I'm also using a new photo editing system, and as soon as get used to it, I'll be able to give you better pics. For now...
Here is.... Dracula.

Beeeeyoooooot!

 

[Customikey]

And here's my repaint of Princess Leia.

 

[Voorhees27]

AMAZING work, the eyes are so lifelike and detailed, great work!

However, does anyone else see Tim Roth in the Dracula sculpt?

And here's my repaint of Princess Leia.

Looks like the Mona Lisa.

I re-worked Legolas to integrate the DiD armor for a Two Towers look. I like the overall effect with an HT body underneath, although I do wish HT would make hands that could hold the knives.

I've got Gandalf done, I'm just waiting for good weather to go out and shoot him amongst the foliage. He maybe one of my best paint-ups ever!

Is that the Product Enterprise sculpt... it looks like it, but the improvement is mind-blowing! He always seemed kind of round, but that repaint is sick

Yup, the Chris Lee Drac is Product Enterprise's.

That Christopher Lee Dracula looks amazing Mikey! Truely horrific. Between this and Hannibal you are really improving some horror icons. I'm starting to mistake you for DarkArtist!

But seriously, amazing work as always. Your Legolas is fantastic as well. You nailed the hair color!

Haha! That's really flattering. I feel like Josh is sort of the Go-To Guy as far as horror is concerned. Some of his first work was in gore, and I think it's one of his greatest strengths. I hope he won't mind me dipping into one of his genres.
