kpnuts Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 It's moving on really fast. Great stuff, I saw some of those in pound land my missus thought I was going a bit funny when I bought them, told her I could see them being useful in my modelling, still not sure she believes me.

lanesteele240 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Nice ira. I needs flashing lights and guns. Lots of guns
Ira Posted July 22, 2015 Author Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) GROOT! I made a base for the Police Jet Ball. I started with a round wooden base from the Crafts Store and added a plastic tube in the center to hold the steel wire to support the Jet Ball. I glued bits of plastic around the tube and then cover the base with "Dirt" & "Grass" from the Hobby Shop.The action figure is Groot from the "Guardians of the Galaxy" movie. After I got Groot in position I filled the body joints with "Formula 560" White Glue. After the glue dried I painted over the joints and weathered Groot with "The Detailer". A couple of coats of Testors Dullcote finishes him off. More Coming... Edited July 22, 2015 by Ira
