Default Barry Sanders custom figure unpainted

I'm going to buy me a dremmel set now and start smoothing these cats out, it is a nice break in between tweaking bases to customize.

Default Norb, you're definitely on the right track

Norb,

I love Barry Sanders! I love to do him. On the Barry Sanders pose, the best one to use is the Menacing Enforcer. With him, you can create any Barry Sanders figure. This pose has a low center of gravity and easy to cut up. I am not trying to reign on your parade but I would just like to offer a few examples of where to start and the final product.

Default looking good norbert...

One tip i can give to you ... When heating up the figure to manipulate it...hold the figure close to the base of the flame closer to the lighter, then use a heat and pull away meathod...let it heat for a second then move the lighter away etc... this will greatly reduce the burning in the figure so you dont lose those details.. like fingers/
Hope that helps....if not...just tell me to shut up and i will go away

Default Good Work!!!

Norbert,

You've done a very fine job on illustrating what you did to create your figures. Really nice work! Is it harder to tweak a base for these figures? How long does it take to get them to run the way you want them to? Thanks for sharing.
