Commander 75 Kirks And H1's Coming Soon... - Barzo 19 - 02-10-2008
Everyone, im gonna start pumping out some Commander 75 Kirks and H1's soon so i thought i might let everyone know in advance if anyone wants one. Im gonna try to make these have Hero paint and weathering so that everyone will get there money's worth. As some of u may know, the Commander 75 mold is owned by Mr. Andrew Donato at JITB. i have been buying several blanks from him in the past month and couldnt be happier!!!These pics are of the soon-to-be Commander 75 Kirk Hero. These r the early stages of it so trust me, i still have a ton on it so that it will be worth it. I ordered a few of these from Andrew and they arrived in a few weeks. NOTE: These will be as thin as the early run or last run Psycho's!!!!! I told Andrew this and he told me no problem, that it will always be arranged from now on when i order more blanks. These will all include hand laid camel hair and monster makers paints with a multilayered paintjob. On with the pics:<img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0826.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0827.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0828.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0830.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0831.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0832.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0825.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

As for the H1's. These pics im about to show may or may not shock some but i was tested different paints when the white paint started to crack and chip on me. It has been coming off easily though im getting the rest off later tonight. These will also feature hand laid camel hair and a multilayer paint and multilayer weather to assure accurate quality. This as well, is not finished yet, im still adding many different fleshtones until i get the right color. And yes, these will also feature a Hero paintjob as well...but im still testing the waters with this one...also, the slit on the back is screwed up so i'll probably be keeping this one as a flawed proto.....on with the pics:<img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0833.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0834.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0835.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0836.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0837.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0839.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f216/chimpabarzo/100_0840.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />

Looks cool...if I were you I would clean up the pimples on those pulls A LOT..go thru it a dremmel twice over to make sure you got it all. That ruins a myers mask for me
Commander 75 Kirks And H1's Coming Soon... - Barzo 19 - 02-10-2008
thanks bro, i will. i had to get a new dremmal the other day and havent had the chance to use it. i will tomarrow though. these will probably be around the $100 mark. i hate to see people have to save up so much for a great lookin mask. im gonna make these look as great ass possible for a cheap price too. but as for those pimples, i already went over them about once or twice. i think its the way im painting them. i dont have a great airbrush so im having to use sponge brushes and my fingers(lol, yea, i do).Chris

yeah the pimples are a bit much lol . and also it might just be me but i think the eyes are cut a tad too big . but other than that , i like how the paint is coming along . can't wait to see some finished pics mike,

yeah, the eyes may be a little bit bigger, which is why i said that i'll probably keep it as a flawed proto. as for the pimples on em, its just where the paint bunched up...in ALOT of places, but since im giving them a multilayer paint, i'll take all the pimples off and give it another layer or 2 and be extremely carefull since im usind my fingertips and sponge brushes. i will pay extra close attention....Chris

I stand corrected from Andys comment. But, I am still confused, you said you havn't used your dremel, but then stated you already went over the blanks twice and that was as good as it got? <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":unsure:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"unsure.gif\" /> Regardless, if you do these up right they could be pretty cool. Keep working on them; take your time and don't look for short cuts just to get to a finished product.

A nail clipper is good for getting big pimples

the "pimples" as they are being called, are from the paint. He's useing a paint brush, and when you brush on latex paint it does that. I'd switch to an airbrush if it's possible.
