Awesome work , a vast improvement. You and Les with your recent repaints have shown what an amazing sculpt that really is. Keep up the brilliant work.
 
Now that's a paint job that lives up to Trevor's amazing sculpt. Much more Indy than Indonesian Indy.:lol Excellent eyes and mouth. I got this figure for my aunt two Chirstmases ago, and man is that thing dark in person. It sure needs a paint job like this.
 
Thanks guys. :eek: Some things just fill you with the feeling of a job well done, and this was one of them.

Jeeeeeeeez Darren...That's absolutely stunning!
Trev

Trevor, your skill astounds me. When you have a piece that has an accurate and character filled sculpt such as this it's just a pleasure to paint. Thank you for giving me so many great sculpts to repaint for people. I've enjoyed every single one.

One day I hope I'm able to sculpt even 80% as well as you can. (in fact, I think I might break into your house tonight and steal your skills while you're sleeping. Hope you don't mind) :lol

Ruddy hell Darren, you have some talent mate. My favourite bit of the PF re-paint is the stubble. Stunning work.
 
(copied from my blog)

During the Easter week & weekend (as well as having the worst cold virus known to man... honest!), Jane and I were working to move me out of the small office I was working in, into a larger studio. Both rooms needed emptying out, and everything I was working on needed carefully packing away so nothing got lost in the move... but we finally got me in here.

(It's amazing how long it takes to unplug all your computer connections, power leads, USBs etc, and unscrew a desk that's actually made out of three desks put together - then reassemble it all!)

The good news is that now I can have both my painting station and my sculpting station set up at the same time. This has always been a thing that slowed me down in the past... If i was working on sculpting work but was struggling, and felt like doing some painting, it was a hassle to pack away my sculpting equipment and get my painting station set up. So often I wouldn't bother.

Now I can have everything set up - permanently!!

Also there's space next to me on the desk (with more to come when I get another desk added to it) for somebody else to sit to help me get through commissions faster. My space it now way more productive that the small room I used to be cramped into. Plus the window here is about twice the size of the old room, so I have much better, natural light to paint by... and that's always a bonus!

Now leave me alone I have lots of work to do!!! ;)

Darren
