getting my egg pics edited for ebay and don't want to repost them all here since they are just the eggs from above in/out of the plastic cases. i couldn't resist tweaking a pic with strong filters though.

black light poster from hell?

i guess i'm going with one egg and one fully outstretched hugger in a plastic case for $35 shipped and see how it goes. maybe sets of 3 other huggers and one burster in small containers for $25 shipped.

i got this marvel base figure in a large lot and it quickly became another pred wip . it was painted by the previous owner red/green which is crazy as someone painted the pred shield i have had for yrs. the same. a pred knight to ride my alien dragon. his dreds were removed and i'll add them under the horned back half of the scum? helmet. removed some shoulder pads and added the hands from a 5" foot soldier, feet from frost giant. the silver skull was harvested from a broken figure too long ago to remember, but it was solid rubber i hallowed out.




added new destro feet, horns cut from an mb dragon, and a solo vest to this dude.


my dark wizard alatar painted up. it is a tmnt? plant guys upper body turned upside down and stuck in a infinity game piece stand. the crystal ball is from a junk bin at my old shop ,and is cracked throughout. it just sits there , and i want to make a flat top to switch back and forth.

Wha. Predators galore! They based on the official Predator species/class types or you are making your own to suit?

i'm not too knowledgeable on the different preds. the armor and horned one is going to be a rider in my fantasy verse, so he won't be true to any. i do want a couple movie accurate ones for sure. i just watched pred2 the first tie as an adult the other night and seeing all of them on the ship was cool.

some test shots of my redone croc master. i knew if i started posing a bunch i'd have 150 pics, and i want to get a better back ground. maybe even a boat. if you don't remember this was what i had.


as soon as it was done i was unhappy with the boots/gaiters. while making the pieces of dino skin for the feet i discovered how thin i could of gotten the skin at the shin area and also could of probably got them in one piece with the scutes. i had to pick up another $1 dino and then rip all that hotglue off. just seeing if he photos well or needs anything. playing with brightness and contrast a little.



the gaiters are both one solid piece "skinned" off the same dino. i sewed them loosely with thread then painted the thread w/clear fingernail polish. i also found that the terra vipers i had used removable belts so i gave him one. it took me 20 umpteen tries to get the eye right.i dropped the scutes around his waist, but reused the drilled holes for his whip and chains. i also repainted the "belly" armor . ets i also dropped the gaiter thong and just painted his crotch that was left roughed up by glue.

all in all i really dig him now now. i can't wait to get some final pics.

eta another b4 pic i think i need a few teeth holes here and there with a hot needle.

thanks sgcaper! this one is real important for me as it hits several interests. one day i hope to finish my reptile room.

i've been looking at a boat for him ,and i think an air boat is out as he won't fit in a seat worth a dang. single jointed knees plus the bulky gaiters and whip/chains all work against him. i have a lower water moccasin shell i was planning to copy BB and a new ray duck boat rescuer gave me. both would make great air boats. i'l leaning towards putting an outboard on the duck boat and go from there. kind of a stand up drive river boat

I can see him in that. Something low and shallow so a croc can be let loose from it. Maybe with a drop down nose so they could get back in the boat.

Those revisions to Croc Master are PHENOMINAL. I love that custom!

well done, sir.

that;s a good idea sgcaper. maybe a flip out slide though. i don't want to cut the newray boat, but seal it to float.

thanks jm70!
