Yup, those preds look really nice!
The detail in the paint apps is great.

The detail in the paint apps is great.

I'd agree but for Wolf's damage, that could have been done a bit stronger, which is why I gave mine some touch up.

Neca has done a great job on these !
Hope they do an Alien Queen, and a Celtic predator, well all alien and predators from all the movies.

I think that NECA could've added more green to his face, they got the sculpt good though.

Sculpt is great, but at such a small scale, it almost looks like the texture of his healthy side, so more paint to highlight that it's a wound helps.

Awesome photos. Now I really want to get them. Is that the Mcfarlane AvP spear?

yes it is... neca's spear is too short

 

[Elder_Predator2]

It's way too short in my eyes. Great pics Lonewolf.

Well, you can garuntee that I will be doing some repainting on mine.

 

[MaulFan]

I've already touched up my Wolf.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Took a brush to Wolf tonight. NECA did a nice job sculpting his disfigurement, but the paint job is a bit subtle, so I made it a bit more bold to really look like an injury. Also glossed his eye over with some white, make it look more deformed as well.

BEFORE

AFTER

what color did you use?

 

[MaulFan]

what color did you use?

I used Apple Barrel paints, 20740 Parakeet for the fluorescent green, then I mixed that with 20596 Cobalt Blue to get a more teal for some dark spots, then I used black to add some specs to his forhead and fill in from his eye socket to his dreads as there is more black damage there, then I used a yellow and white mix for a wash over his cheek to mute the colors a bit. I also put a bit of a white wash over his eye to hide the iris a bit more than it shows on the figure. It still comes through a bit, but it almost looks like just a white eye.

I based my color choices off the SSC bust.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Thanks. The colors that you chose are almost an identical match. at least INO.

 

[MaulFan]

I'll take some non-flash images after, I just did those 2 to make it really clear what the damage is like before and after, and in both cases it's more bold than typical lighting, which is why NECA's is weak, it's almost impreceptable in the flash.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Maulfan whats your opinion about the seam on Wolf's lower mandibles? Is it really bad, or is it just a minor seam?
