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

[SilentSurfer]

Thank you. I'll keep those pics as reference.

Well, Freaks. SDCC starts for me tomorrow as I go down to SD to help setup the Sideshow booth, and then Wednesday night I'll get to see all the new stuff Sideshow and Hot Toys have to offer as we place everything before preview night starts. I'm more stoked this year than ever before. Many things I've worked on will be there. I just wish I had a smart phone so I could post regular updates.

Have a blast, Nathan. Enjoy the unveilings

Congrats bud! You earned it! Have a blast!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thanks guys. Speaking of unveilings...

Some vidcaps for you guys.

I didn't paint this base. I didn't even know about this base, but this is just brilliant. I love this base. Excellent decision by Sideshow!

 

[DarthMagnus]

Awesome bro! Keep em coming!

 

[Bucky Underbelly]

Man, I stopped collecting Star Wars many years ago ... but I just might have to have one of these! LOVE the paint scheme! And that base rocks!

 

[SilentSurfer]

@Darth: Thanks. You gonna be at SDCC. If so, PM me your cell and we can meet up at some point.

@Bucky: Thank you. I knew this paint job would be a challenge before I got started, and I'm glad it turned out even better than I expected.
Yes, that base is genius.

 

[Deckard]

Your getting some pretty sick work in there Nathan. Congrats.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Lucky, lucky, lucky, man.... all this secrecy must be killing you.

GREAT WORK I must say!

 

[MarfMaster]

Like I said in the Boba thread, astounding work as usual man I can imagine it was a pretty big honor to work on such an anticipated and iconic character!

 

[Reinhardt]

Officially Blown Away.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thanks everybody.

The secrecy is tough some times. I knew almost a year ago that I was going to be painting Fett, but they kept going back to make sure all the details were just right before he was ready for paint. I didn't actually paint him until last month. And he may not look like it at first glance, but has a ton of parts, probably even more than Zartan.

 

[DarthMagnus]

Congrats on the new work Nate its just mind blowing! Sorry but Im not making the con. Woulda been awesome to see you again! Maybe next year and thats wishful thinking! Thanks for the words bro!

 

[Bucky Underbelly]

Now, the question is ... have we seen all of your secret ComiCon paint-ups at this point ... or are there more?

(Obviously you can't get into specifics, but can you give us a number?)

Fantastic work, man! As always! Bravo!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Not sure how many will be at Con, but more.

Thanks for nailing the paint on the helmet (specifically under the T-Visor cheek area) Nate-Dogg! Something SSC couldn't do (according to Brant) on the 1:1 Fett. Carbon freezing chamber base just puts this over the top.

 

[SilentSurfer]

How do mean 'nailing the paint'? Color, pattern, other?

 

[stshammgod]

I think he means screen accurate detail.

 

[SilentSurfer]

That's always my goal.
