 HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT I DID!!!!!!!!! ;D yup! i do it! the "TOMB RAIDER" is finished. well, i got some detailing to do. but, for all intents and purposes, i'm finished!  have to get some clear plastic to replace the kit glass, it being a glue bomb, it was ruined.  i put a brown wash on the coffin.  lookin' down on the inside.   not bad lookin' at all.  nope i was wrong.........  that is "BAD LOOKIN'!!!!"  dude means business!   i will be pin striping this with gold.  still need to put the glass in the sides.   sweet!  lATER dUDES

THAT IS KOOL!!!!!............has all the perfect elements.....hearse, coffin, big motor, and of course a skeleton!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D.................Fred
ps--if by chance you do detail the skeleton (if he isn't already glued to his seat). Just spray paint him flat black and then lightly drybrush him with some white. all the recessed areas will remain black (joints, eyes,etc)

Nice use of these kits for a really kool kitbash. I agree, your skeleton is lifeless. (?) LOL. He seriously needs to have a wash of black to bring out his finer qualities, he's just too bleached out! You can make some horrific bulging eyes from straight pin heads too if you want some gore quality, and hair shaved off your nearest stuffed animal is great for sparcely decorating that skull and hiding seam lines!  The overall matte black finish worked well, and if you do pinline it in gold it should look outstanding! I think I may have some window glass for this if you want it? Let me know! I'll look tonight to see! Here's a similar idea I did a few years ago:  |
