SilentSurfer's Laboratory: Come up to the Lab & See What's on the Slab.

I think the "not so subtle" hints helped out a bit Marf....

Perhaps To be honest, I can't remember reading any...but I'm sure I did, and they're rattling around in my subconscious.

Hey man, do you ever thinking about making tattoos? I think that you will be also legendary in this sphere of art.

 

[SilentSurfer]

I have actually thought about that. Another talented childhood friend of mine does that. It would be cool to know somebody was walking around with my art on their body and not just on their shelf.

I don't personally have any tatts though cause I have never thought of anything I would never regret getting, so that's probably why I never got into that as a profession. I'd be very curious to see how well I could do it. I imagine it's kinda like aircurshin right onto somebody's body canvas.

So...lend machine from friend and from butcher take pig skin and try it

I really love to have tattoo from someone like you! ( But me too didn't have tattoo yet from same reason like you and add that I don't want have souvenir for rest of my life from absolute unknown man, which can ruined your skin for alltime! )

[SilentSurfer]

Ha. Those are cool! Gives me all kinds of inspiration.

And the hits just keep on coming. Posted on Sideshow Facebook today, the new 1/6 Vader I painted.

One question: when can you post photos of your work?



Side note: AWESOME A L I E N!!!!

 

[MaulFan]

I know you can't say much about Vader right now, but is the portrait sinister looking for Anakin, or is it closer to Shaw's emotion in the movie?

 

[SilentSurfer]

Sinsiter Shaw. It's nice. I even wanted to give him Sith eyes, but Lucas didn't approve it.

I'm sure Sideshow's coverage on this one will be excellent. There's no crazy weathering, so I probably won't need to show my own pics.

Thanks for the compliment on the A L I E N.

Not sure the word "awesome" covers the totality of my feelings about your Alien work, but I was simply at a loss for words. But 'awesome' seems to cover it.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Awesome works. It's clear. It's simple. Now, wait til you see what I do with the 1/3 bust.

A new 1/6 Vader!

Obviously it will look great since you have painted it. Can't wait for the full reveal.

Surfer, is there any chance you painted any of the upcoming Sideshow 1/6 DC figures?

 

[galactiboy]

Congrats on also getting the 1/3 ALIEN... pretty cool when you can impress the maker enough they can shake one loose for you

 

[SilentSurfer]

Yes, I am very honored that they thought that highly of my work to do that for me.

I was all lined up to be the main guy on all that, but sadly, I never got the chance to do even one of those.

 

[KingGrayskull]

Who is now painting for them?

I still dont get how they can part with someone who has skills like you...

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thank you. I don't know who would be painting them. Multiple people. They have three in-house guys and even more outside venders.

 

[MrRabba]

Sent a pm across to you buddy in regards to my sculpt!

 

[SilentSurfer]

I like this little gif Lawrence posted in the Koto Fine Art thread.

 

[MrRabba]

Thanks again buddy, can't believe I'm going to have your epic Summer Glau paint job in hand very soon
