RobertoBagg10's Display Thread *NEW UPDATE* CUSTOM G1 MEGATRON HALF SCALE COM...
Sorry for the wait guys
been really busy with the kids these past few days as I had a few days holiday from work so it's all about making the most of my free time with the little ones
Okay, so back to the Silver Surfer...well, what can I say? I've seen some chrome pieces in my time with my MKII bust and LSF but even they don't compare to how amazing this piece looks in chrome
it's the frikkin Silver Surfer man...this guy was born to be chromed imo
as soon as I took him out the box I literally needed sunglasses to protect me from the shiny rays
as for the cosmic trail, well I specifically gave the artist who painted it a specific color code of deep light purples with shades of blues and blacks...he really did a great job. However, what I find is that as I moved around the statue, especially in a lighted room as opposed to natural lighting, the cosmic trail changes colour beautifully...it really is something that needs to be seen in the flesh and my amateur pics certainly don't do this piece justice (although I will be taking it upon myself to ask those on this forum who are kings of photography - Paramore and Darthstitch to name a few, and ask them for advice for which camera are best to use and how to go about getting that killer shot!) it's my birthday in a few weeks so a decent camera is on the cards me thinks
Was it money well spent to have Surfer chromed? For me, 100% YES! The best pics i've seen of Silver Surfer Collectibles have always been in chrome and so when I saw the first images of the Comiquette being chromed, I knew it was something I was always going to do...and thankfully with the help from a fellow UK collector, I was pointed in the right direction and given the chance to have mine done the way I've always wanted
Like I said, my pics certainly don't do this piece justice at all but I hope you can enjoy them none the less...I've taken quite a few pics as I was up till the early hours of the morning the other day just taking pics and admiring this beautiful piece so I'll post more when I get some free time over the weekend....so for now ladies and gentlemen, I present to you my chromed Silver Surfer Comiquette Exclusive
