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

It was great meeting you on Saturday. I'm still amazed at how great this Scar is. Here are some pics.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Badass, if I do say so myself.

Yes, it was nice to meet you, although briefly. Thank you for giving him a good new home.


BTW, the mask is supposed to hang off his right rear 'box' pouch as in this ADI display from some convention.

But if that's where you want it, it's all good.

That Godzilla head is impressive... can't wait to see it painted up

 

[SilentSurfer]

Teeth are done. Eyes next. Pics soon.

 

[Reinhardt]

Very cool. Godzilla is awesome.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Hail to the King of Monster, baby!

I left his skin black like it is in the movies. The gray tones just come from different lighting.

The kind of face only an atomic bomb could love.

Decided to do without the pre-printed eyes and lenses, and painted in better ones to look like they did in Vs. MechaGodzilla '93

Does a Godzilla model kit or collectible get any better than this?

 

[galactiboy]

That is awesome man! Love everything about it

 

[MarfMaster]

Those painted eyes are ____ing ridiculous.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thank you much.

It was this vote of confidence that encouraged me to paint the eyes after all:

I'd respect using the movie-accurate eyes, but yeah, I'm sure you could do waaaaay better. This is going to be a beast!

Thanks, CH. What do you think?

Anybody remember how to embed a YouTube video. I seem to have forgotten?

Thanks. Yeah, this guy cost me $600. He'll probably cost me another $600 to have a display case made for him so he doesn't end up with a mouth full of dust like the one in the pic several posts back.

Thank you. Yay, I finally get to keep something I worked on again. Seems like it's been a while. He's not going anywhere.

hey ss did you ever see the new pics i posted of the tracker maquette?

 

[D. Martin]

The official Slave Leia piece looks like this, but this isn't what you actual get. This one has brownish blankets.

This is more like what you actually get. With black blankets.

Here is how it looked when it premiered at SDCC '06. If you compare this pic to the one above, it looks like they added a bit of skirt to the front of her lap since this version.

Now check out how much of her backside used to be exposed. This is what Carrie Fisher pitched a fit about. Contrarily, this is what made me want this piece all the more. It was the ultimate sexy Leia.

But this is what GG did to passify her. This is what prompted me to inquire about the change at the 30th Celebration where I heard about Fisher's negative reception to the figure.

They added nearly 100% more skirt back there.

"Butt" I wanted to see the whole thing as originally planned. See pics in previous post.

I was with Carrie when this happened. It was at SDCC. WE were walking through Gentle Giant, getting a tour, and when we got to the slave Leia she sort of stiffened up, as it turned to reveal far more Leia than she would have like. She called up George Lucas himself and got very angry. Twenty minutes later, the statue didn't rotate anymore, and GG went back to the drawing table.

 

[SilentSurfer]

AWESOME! Thanks for adding that to the story, D. That's great! Wow, she set George on them, huh? LOL.

She definitely wouldn't like to see what I've done to my GG Slave Leia then. She's topless. Too bad I can't post anatomically correct pics in here.

I did. I thought I posted a comment. I'll have to go back and see it again.

But you can PM

 

[stshammgod]

Marf speaks the truth! Lol

 

[SilentSurfer]

That won't work either cause I use Photobucket, and they'd delete them. As soon as I get her real skirt on, I'll put up an album on Facebook and link here, I guess.
