Brandon Jacobs?
Well, I am giving it a try anyway...
First batch of FF.com figures ever and what am I doing...chopping some of them up! I think I have him in a decent position...and have applied the early paint... A lot of work still ahead...but those stripes on the pants turned out pretty good I think (I painted them on)... I need to figure my camera out (3.1 mega pixel)...I am struggling to get a nice detail pic... Anyway...here are a few early pics... |

Hey, you nailed the gray on the Giants pants! That ain't no easy thang to do! What color and what brand o' paint did you use on those Giants pants? I need to get that!
Thanks in advance for your reply. |

Thanks...
and the paint is actually a mix...
I am doing a Giants team (before I decided to give Jacobs a try) and on those guys I was using Modelmaster Acryl "Light Grey" (flat). With Jacobs, I added a touch of flat black to darken it a little. I like the result and may recoat my other Giants with the same mixture. Last edited by SteelerFan1967 : 02-15-2008 at 11:27 AM. |

I Am A Die-hard Giants Fan And The Paint Job Is Outstanding....did You Say That You Painted The Pant Stripes....if So They Look Just Like The Stripes From A Decal Sheet That Is An Awesome Pose...i Wish The Real Brandon Jacobs Ran That Low....he Would Really Be Efeective Then....nice Pose And A Great Looking Figure

Jacobs update...
Everything so far is paint...will probably print and apply numbers tomorrow...
The first and last pix are after I cleaned up the gloves a little and painted the base... Still need to clean-up the pants stripes a little and do a little bit of shoe work...will probably leave the helmet logo off for now... Last edited by SteelerFan1967 : 02-17-2008 at 01:31 AM. |

Jacobs Done!
Ditched the painted shoulder stripes for decals...painted ones were too wide...
Included the helmet logo... Touched up a few things and added a little detail to the shoes... Overall, I think he looks good...it was a lot of work but he turned out better than I expected... Last edited by SteelerFan1967 : 02-18-2008 at 02:11 AM. |
