quick update pic, still a lot to be done! i think i'm going to try dye for the uniforms. i think the black made the boots look more time correct, but this movie is tricky! they use some 6 position stocked AR's way too new for vietnam.that is also smart though,kind of a jab at hollywood.

the modded- painted -giant arms on speedman have got to go! besides that i think part selection is done. i do have helmets, i'm not sure who if any are gonna wear them.

4leaf is coming along. after seeing these pics i need to work on the eyes of chino and osiris!

gaurd tower for "The Island of Anton Lavey"


Image

paint is coming along nice on the gaurd tower. i think the cliffs are done, but the tower itself is still up in the air. the first 3 shots show each side of the rock outcrop, 1 land side and 2 by sea .the last shot was with no flash!

Friend... I like what you've got going on here. But that tower stole my wallet and ran up all my credit cards and I don't even care! That's awesome! Is there a floor for figures to stand in up at the top? Because that would put this over the top.

yeah, that "found item" tower is awesome.

keep on it with the figures and the painting. you'll get to where you're happy with it. Thin out the paint and apply multiple thin coats. Best advice you can get. And I have to remind myself of it from time to time also, as there's always the temptation to get it done quick.

thanks for all the kind words, it means so much!

"Is there a floor for figures to stand in up at the top? "

i have plans to install one, from the bottom.

i have everything for a second tower, except the top. the piece pictured is the frame of an ultrasonic basket. my wife said she saw some reusable coffee filters that looked exactly the same at the everythings a dollar store.

LOL at the drum set pics!
I think you succeeded in making it realistic. As far as I can see only the edges of the circular shapes might need some touch ups.
