  1. Thank you! It was a kit that I had to both assemble and paint. I learned a ton. Previously I had only put together model planes and helicopters. Here is a link to my journal while I was building it Conan Statue Journal
  2. I've been posting pics on the statue and journal pages. Thought I would share here and give this page a well deserved bump. This is a statue I just completed from the Moebius model kit.
  3. Thank you guys! I took some better pics last night now that it is more dry
  4. Thank you! New journal and being able to upload pics was pretty cool. I'm going to enter the statue in my county fair in a couple weeks. Fingers crossed I get a ribbon. That will be first time entering something.
  5. Thanks bro! Yeah the eyes were a pain. I ended up using a metal stitch remover to gently put little dots of paint along with a tiny brush
  6. I just finished my Conan 1 statue kit. I'm very happy with how it turned out. If anyone is interested please check out my journal. Thank you. Pics below before and after clear coat.
  7. All finished. Necklace was a pain getting through the holes again. Added the clear coat that is still drying. I'll take some better pics once it dries all the way. Thanks for everyone checking out my journal. It was a cool project and I learned a ton.
  8. I changed the eyes again Decided on them looking straight at you instead of up. My daughter likes to help me when I'm doing projects :-) Added the brass to Conan
  9. Thanks dudes! I'm almost done. With any luck I'll have it finish tonight and clear coat it. I'll post some more pics after work.
  10. You guys mean a convention like this in SD but running concurrently with SDCC? SDCOMICFEST
  11. Sorry to hear about not being able to add a USS Flagg I look forward to seeing the pics of the room. Perhaps there is space for a Cobra Terrordome
  12. I found a $5 old silver note in the back of one of the books I bought in a collection
  13. Almost there. Pieces held together pretty solid with all the added wires and pegs on the feet. I'll probably seal Conan's feet after I do the final paint. I left the brass color for last. That stuff feels like it never dries, so I want to keep handiling to a minimum...... I'm probably going to change the eyes so they aren't looking up
  14. I was so happy when I deleted mine. It was constantly freezing my computer
  15. Best thing about the CGC board upgrade is being able to load photos directly. I love not using photo bucket anymore
  16. Finished the sandals last night. Here's a pic before the touch ups
  17. Changed his eyes from dark blue to baby blue. Took forever
  18. I was feeling motivated today. I finished Conans face and hair
  19. Slow day at work today. Watched a bunch of you tube videos about dry brushing. Conan's shading turned out pretty good. I tried just doing highlights on the girl but the white paint was kind of sticky. I might have to start using acrylic or something
