Since it's becoming less expensive to purchase motors perhaps you could get one (or 2) for each removable board.

Just a thought.

Yes, it could be solution. I ordered 4 motors for almost nothing (10euros), so I'll try it I believe...

Default almost finished

Hi,

I almost finished the painting of my linemen. I painted the gloves, the pants stripes and made the chinstraps and helmet details.

Now, I have to do the helmets logos and stripes, jersey shoulder numbers and stripes, and it will be finished.

I will not detail the shoes and stuff like that, I bet on the mass effect to make the team good looking. I just can't take hours and hours to make the same details I did on my #66 center figure...irrealistic if I want to play this team in the next months.


I particulary like the numers #62 and #68. The #68 because I believe he looks like Woody Arelson more seriously because his face is expressive, and the #62 for his attitude ("you'll not pass, believe me" ) and skin colour effects.

to be continued...

thank you


Here's the last stages for tonight. I made the jersey and helmet stripes. I bought new brushes, the job was a LOT easier than on the first figure I've done. I obtained the same result for 4 figures in the time I spent on the first one


Sorry for the pics quality, I need to charge my camera battery I was not able to make other pics.



Tomorrow morning, I'll finish them I hope (helmet logos and shoulder numbers...tuff job). Tomorrow afternoon, I play


If I 've got some time, I'll start the last O squad customs sunday.

Hi,

I finished the figures this evening, after my game. I made the glossy varnish for the helmets, and tonight I posed the matte varnish coat on the figs themselves, now everything 's drying (see the pics).

Tomorrow, I'll pose the masks and the turf flock. Perhaps I'll pose the masks this night, if I'm not too tired

Thank you !

Unfortunatly, 80% of the face disapears under the mask...typically a modellist problem (like in model railroad, the men how details trains interiors wich nobody will see )



here 's the almost final result (even if the pic is quite satured because of the light), with facemasks and varnish. Tomorrow, I'll make the base details, and final daylight pics.
