MMS138 – The Expendables: 1/6th scale Barney Ross Collectible Figure

[MaulFan]

Exactly and that's what keeps us all coming back. Ive been here for almost 4 years now

Almost 5 for me. This site has been a blessing for my collecting life. I've been into these movies and collecting since I was a kid, though collecting more like from teen years on, but, it was always private, I never knew anyone locally into this stuff, for the first time in my life, I had somewhere to share my thoughts and fondness for stuff with people who listened because they shared the same thoughts rather than were just humoring me. Even my photos, it's just nice to have a place to share something I really pour a part of myself into, if I didn't have this "gallery" to share my work in, I probably wouldn't shoot stuff, I spent my youth making art that, again, was looked at to humor me but the people I showed it to weren't into the subject matter, but people here are.

Loving those pics Espen. I am still waiting for my camera. Those are really cool backgrounds, how did you go about making them?

Judging from the photos, I think it's an image open on a monitor or TV.

It's been a long time huh?! Now there's some love haha! Good for you!

Only Sideshow Freaks though, I go nowhere else. It's a very fun community.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Really that's what the internet is. A place to find common ground. I'm like you, I would never have taken pics of my stuff if it weren't for here.

Very clever!
I wonder how easy it is to create green screen backgrounds for figure pics.

Not too hard, so long as you don't have green in the figure you're shooting and your green screen is well lit, you can select specific color channels in photoshop to make selections.

Thanks everyone

Like Sean said,my PC monitor,plus the red light effect from a headlight i have.

It is easier than people might think,nothing fancy is being used,just a great camera that's all.

Very good post Maulfan! I feel exactly the same. Most of my friends just look at my figures to humor me, but that's it. I can't talk about my collection to them, because deep down they don't care and I respect that, because everyone has their own interests.
But to find a place with lots of great people who share the same interests, hobbies, and ideas is just awesome! Seriously signing up here almost 2 years ago was one of the best decisions I've ever made!


@ Rock83; Your pictures are awesome, man!!! Really nice! I can't wait till I get this figure! Hopefully sometime soon!!

Question. Is the waist on this figure smaller than on the Whiplash body? I was worried HT would have the same thick waistline, but the Barney waist looks smaller.

Sam, same size, Nam is trying to replace Dutch as well.

 

[Craze]

I've been lurking around here for almost 3 years I would guess, just recently joined in the fun officially, why it took me so long I dunno ,but being here really helps me out in my choices of what I want on my shelves and where my money might be best spent. I love looking at all the great photos and reading everyone's opinions on this stuff... So thanks guys.

Thanks Bud, I had a feeling it was the same. I like the definition on the Barney forearms though.

Are you just sitting around thinking of ways to make my wait longer

 

[gotham_collector87]

Awesome pics. That punisher figure looks awesome, may have to try and find one for a good price.

People have gotten theirs and seen enough pics so they have gone tired of this thread,why do you order from Sideshow?They are very slow with HT figures.
