Monica this is my favourite of all your recent horror figures they have all been great in my eyes but for me this as something that eclipses all your previous ones I love it well done keep up the awesome work cheers John

 

[Bunkerbarge]

Really nice job there Monica. The textures on the creature work really well and you've done a great job on the setting and vegetation but the bit that stands out is the lovely job on the skin tones of the female figure.

 

[dubster72]

Definitely a brilliant job Moni! How you blend the colours using acrylics is superb, & the detail you get is amazing.


A couple of B/W shots would look like scenes from the film

 

[Tibbs]

Love looking at your builds..... You have a great eye for detail... Top class as usual

 

[batcode]

nice work, looks great

 

[John Rixon]

Great work! That hand painted top really does work better than a decal, so much more organic and an impression of the real thing, which is, after all, what we are trying to create!

 

[papa 695]

Awesome work Monica. Just like John say's there is something about this build that stands out from the rest


Just awesome

 

[0ne48thtel]

Another great build Moni can't add anything to what has already been said above.

 

[eddiesolo]

That is amazing work Moni, totally amazing! Only thing I could add to enhance it is to add some two-part cleat epoxy to the creatures eyes, or some gloss varnish this will give a sheen to them.

Great job, particularly on the female humans' skin tones.

 

[grumpa]

[monica]

again lad you over whelm me with such great comments, :D


make me feel all warm and fuzzy,i do real appreciate such nice words and dose real mean so much to me,


makes me so happy that you all do enjoy my work so much,


he was a fun build,


you know John/Ian i do feel the same way with this one,some about it that is far difference from the others,


maybe the use of color and not just grays/blacks, and it has life,unlike the others,o_O


so glad that you like the top,John,and i did not think i could pull that one off,and im so glad it turned out well,

That is amazing work Moni, totally amazing! Only thing I could add to enhance it is to add some two-part cleat epoxy to the creatures eyes, or some gloss varnish this will give a sheen to them.

I did add a coat of vallejo gloss to his eyes,maybe a coat or 2 more mite do the trick,?


also i have herd about glass finish for eyes,but unable to track some down or know what there using ?


would be interesting to know what,:rolleyes:
