Default Apoxied HiTMEN

I finally had some time this weekend to work on some EF stuff. This was the first weekend since June I didnt get called out to work. Man it was nice. The all black team is my HiTMEN team. I used Apoxie on the player on the right. The player on the left I did about a year ago. I am not done painting the player on the right. I need to do some touch up. Also, some other players I have Apoxied. They are almost ready to be painted.

Lightbulb Apoxie

Your applying it as something of an add on, remove the head, sculpt shoulders pads then drimmel out neck before replacing head, this keeps the head from looking like its on top of the pads. the apoxie should become part of the figure, smooth out the edges to blend in with the fig. it should look like part of the jersey. be patient hommie, learn from each fig.,master the properties of the apoxie ie:dry time, best way to apply, adhesion, weight u dont want to raise the center of gravity to high affects performance. your on the right track good luck hommie peace.MW

MW,

Thanks. I talked to Chris Fields and Frank Jacobs about using this stuff and even though they have been alot of help, it takes talent to make it look good. I have no artistic talent and it shows. I wanted to give it a try again. My first couple of attempts didnt go very good. Although these look alot better than the first. I am waiting for the entire Jenning collection to be available before I start decalling PRO teams.

Thanks John. Unfortunately, I tried running a few of these on bases and they just kinda toppled over. I think I am going to go back to the drawing board and start other projects I want to do. I will leave the customizing to you, Frank Jacobs, Mega Wattz and others. I need to work on my painting skills first then maybe try this again. Hopefully DeWayne will have his full line of players available by then.
