Anzo Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I am working on a commission to build two 54mm figures, Georges Clemenceau and Alexandre Dumas. These figures are from Mokarex. Mokarex has lots of 54mm historical figures. These subjects are great and unique, but I think their molds are not very well. . If do some amendments, they still are nice figures. Mokarex 54mm Georges Clemenceau. Mokarex 54mm Alexandre Dumas. The parting line of this figure was obvious. Needed to remove this line. Removed the parting line and ground the surface smooth. I also re-engraved all lines along each detail to make these details standing out. Besides re-engraved all lines, I also amended some details of the chair. In additional, the hair of this figure was kind of flat, I added Magic Sculpt to make the hair higher and curled. Airbrushed Gunze Mr. Surfacer 1200 on the figure. It would be easier to check defects. Ground and adjusted anywhere I wasn’t satisfied. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anzo Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 The figure was ready for painting. Client wanted to have a raised silver name. Therefore, I airbrushed the base with lacquer silver, then airbrushed water base grey to prepare a raised silver name. Also washed and dry-brushed the floor. In addition, airbrushed basic skin color on face and hands. Airbrushed, washed and dry-brushed the chair too. Painted the eyes with water base paints. Painted the face and hands by oil paints. Painted the boots. Painted the bag, shirt and vest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FluffyK Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Beautiful work, particularly the faces. I wish I could paint like that, but I have real trouble not slopping paint all over the place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
