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

[SilentSurfer]

That's what I was waiting for. The genius behind this piece.

Oh and of course, she looks damn sexy Nathan.....but I already told you that.

Thanks. I added one more step after 7 that I forgot.

I like the new ticket much better

Thanks.

I added one more step after 7 that I forgot.

And as much as that sculpt is an improvement over the cartoon one, your repaint is so much better than the factory Coffin Elvira that it's hard to believe that's the same sculpt.

 

[SilentSurfer]

I really wanted to be the one to paint the coffin prototype, but they used their default female painter (who does very nice work).

Oh, and I forgot one more.

(7b or 13) carefully drill finger out of pearl ring and slip ring onto right ring finger and repaint

Thanks for posting the process of it... and makes seeing what you accomplished even more impressive.

I got all stoked when I saw the paints Nathan used. I was like I use those paints to. Why am I not as good as him?

I'm pretty sure we've met if you came to our booth at FAMcon, but I didn't know you were TurdFerguson!

All of you, So. Cali. Freaks, we need to get together sometimes!

Okay, here's the mod list for this project.

1) sculpt axe wound in head

2) sculpt knife wound on left hand

3) add knife cut to right pant leg

4) grind off tread/cleats from bottom of shoes (don't know why those were there to begin with)

5) grind down/reshape axe head to make it like a REAL axe head

6) fill in and redrill all mask holes to correct size and position on masked portrait, sculpt correct snaps, recast mask portion, paint to reference, add real elastic straps

7) repaint flesh and add blood effects

8) grind down shoulder/deltoid area so they sloap more and let the head seem a bit larger

FUTURE MODS

9) repaint concrete portion of base and add "FRIDAY THE 13TH" logo

10) recast machete and remove hand so bloody machete can lie next to mask

11) change base top to simulated dirt and real hay with blood splatter

Okay! Nathan knows I've been exchanging love messages back to him on Facebook, but thought I'd also chime in for his thread as well! Posted pics and vids on the Famcon thread, so those interested also check that out!

Igor!!!! Glad you made it out of the lab! We all love you!!!

Here's a few pics and vids for the road...!

Thanks, Marlo! Hey, I really love that little Space Godzilla! In fact, you've inspired me to FINALLY finish my Daimos Space Godzilla model kit that will be facing off with Kaiyodo's '94 Godzilla (both in 400 scale). I think Dai Kaiju will be "BIG" at FAMcon next year!
