I am impressed.

Thanks Ryan! Still have yours?

What did you use for that base coat? Looks almost white...

[color=\"blue\"]Almond[/color]

How about the top yellow? I\'m really interested in hearing what colour choice you picked for that one.
[color=\"blue\"]the top yellow was achieved by using my oils, and a nice soft cloth, (initially)
colours being raw umber with a hint of burnt umber, and then more ultramarine blue for the dirtier marks.[/color]

You sanded it to get all the details, right? Did you also sand the entire surface before you added paint?
[color=\"blue\"]No, and no. No sanding involved at all, the detail was all created with a cloth and brush, and the undercoat made sure the base almond adhered nicely.[/color]

Did you use a dremel on the holes? They look very clean and well-done.
[color=\"blue\"]Yep I dremeled my little heart heart religiously sticking to a good pic of Mr Warlocks lovely screen usd.[/color]

I love the yellow you used as the top coat. Looks great. Same for the blood. I\'d scratch it up a little more if it were me, but it\'s fantastic as-is. I was wondering when someone would start converting these things. You did it justice, that\'s for sure. Certainly not a wasted effort. And don\'t think I don\'t spot that "reference" you used for it. Best. Reference. Ever. =)
[color=\"blue\"]I didnt use a top coat, when the oils dry and cure they tend to stay on there.[/color]
