Yeah right? Sometimes it's easy but with these characters...not so much!


Allrighty then, i've got the wheels under control now...


...And i'm MUCH happier with the body this time around. It's not perfect...but it's gettin there!

[Futurabat]

I've never thought of it before,but this just popped into my head for the bar glasses...check out the clear jewelry beads in a craft store,find the style and shape you want and drill them out,voila!!

ALBERT! That's awesome man! Not to mention I should have thought of it before now! I'm always perusing the aisles of Crafts2000 when i'm there. (I get some odd looks from the women and children when i'm in the bead aisle too! ) Thank you so much for reminding me. I can even get some of the tiny ice white beads for the...well, you know...ice!

I will be back with more tomorrow. I'm taking the night off at the request of a fiance' who is determined to spend one night without smelling paint.

Dump her!!! LOl Just Kidding......... Congrats on the upcoming wedding,,

Okay I had a thought here. For the diehard fans of the show watching this thread I thought we'd play a little game as we go along. There has been mention of a live action movie possibly. So it got me to wondering, who could play the live counterparts to the main characters? Aisha Tyler has already said she would literally go into the octagon and fight anyone who tried to take Lana from her, and I personally can think of noone better suited to the role. However, some of the other characters are not so easy to replace. I thought it would be a fun go-along with this thread to see whom you all would chose. We'll limit it to the top ten characters and you don't have to come up with matches to all of them, just whoever you can. I've already spoken to Harry P. about this and he's okay with it. Just follow the regular board rules.

You would have to go with the actual voice actors to play the roles. These characters are so identified by their voices that any other voice would not be the same. For Malory, Lana, Cyril and Cheryl this wouldn't be a problem, as the voice actors pretty much resemble their drawn character. Amber Nash (Pam) "COULD" be made up to resemble Pam. And I'm not sure about Ray, Krieger, Barry or Woodhouse. Which leaves the biggest problem. H. Jon Benjamin looks nothing like Archer. I don't even think Hollywood Magic could turn a short, fat, bald guy, in to tall, dark and handsome.

Oh, btw.... the car looks great so far.

[Futurabat]

Thank you Garry, for the congrats and the compliment on the car. As for the movie...it's hollywood. I say get a Christian Bale type...or just get Christian Bale, and dub in Benjamin's voice.

Looking good

Again I want to thank you for the suggestion. I won't be doing much for a couple days. My hands are killing me and i've been helping direct a friend through a major kit conversion, but I did get to the craft store. I bought a bag of small clear beads, which when placed on a chrome tray and coated with future should look just like ice. Then theres the beaded bracelet I got for 75 cents! the smaller beads will be the Tumblers and all I need now is to come up with the carafe. I have a wickedly clever idea for that! Here's a shot with the wheels too for an idea of scale. Stay tuned.

That 2 liter was actually in thier dollhouse section. There are a couple more of them and I can grab one or two if you want. I'll pm you the price. It's somewhere between 1/25th and 1/16th scale.

bryan

[Futurabat]

Mark- One of the best things about Archer is you can jump in anywhere. There are a couple multi parters, but you don't have to see all of them in order to get it.

Bryan- Yes! And i'm getting jealous!

[bryan_m]
