First thread on the new forum, nice.

I posted a WIP conversion of this model on the old forum, but after I started painting it I decided it wasn't the pose I was after. So I took it apart and tried again, and I'm a lot happier with it this time. So here is everyone's favourite Abs, converted and painted at last.

I might give her a few extra washes of purple and blue, because she looks very grey at the moment. Comments welcome as always.

She's uglier in person than in her pictures. :>

Nice job.

Freakish and ugly were certainly intended, so I take it as compliments. Cheers. :)

Yar!! That'd be the worst (and last) blind date ever. Nightmare Fuel anyone?
That's some very fine work.

Nice work on the head, how'd you do it? Green stuff it all, or just decapitate a shredder?

A Shredder head would have been cool, but far too big, so it's all sculpted. Here is a picture of how it looked before painting, and in the previous pose.

Wow! That's some serious awesomeness! What compound is the white stuff? or is that another type of green stuff?

Thanks! The white/pinkish stuff is flesh coloured Fimo, a german modelling putty that you oven harden. As most people who read my threads on the old forum probably know, I am a huge fan of it because it is light, cheap, pretty easy to sculpt with, and hardens after being in the oven for 10 minutes so you don't have to wait for hours and hours for it to harden like with green stuff. However, it's not great for fine detail, which is why I used green stuff over it like you can see in the photo.

Here's hoping someone else will reply to this thread still, I hate being the last poster to my own threads once they die... :)

That's the Terror of Everblight, all right. Well done.
