View Full Version : My turn for the Mummy
Here's my spin. I want to thank Tony who gave me some good assembly and painting hints from his article in AFM when he built the Janus kit (which is my next build). Also a thanks to Fritz at headless hearseman for a superb nameplate.
MonsterModelMan 07-06-2009, 02:13 PM Really nice work....love the colors and shading you did on this one MJB!:thumbsup:Very clean and nice! Well done!

Ignatz 07-06-2009, 02:19 PM Very nice build! I love the detailing on the sarcophagus. The cobra and the nameplate look GREAT! Is this a warm up for the Janus kit? Lucky dog. That's on my grail list still! :thumbsup:
Nice job! I love the cobra; it looks very realistic. And good work on the sarcophagus and mummy. :thumbsup:
Sean
MMM - thanks :)
Ignatz, yes, I thought this would be a perfect lead in to my Janus kit.
Sean, I think what makes the cobra look good is that I used a Polytranspar Wet Look Laquer that I bought from one of the online taxidermy supply houses. I first used it on my Creature kit and thought it looked so well that I'm very happy that I remembered I had it when it came time to seal the cobra.

hedorah59 07-07-2009, 01:33 PM Excellent work! Great choice of colors for sure. The nameplate really adds a nice touch to the kit :cool:
Rob, I used Freak Flex Rose Red for his skin, dulcote, some blue, red, green, and purple pastels on the face (I'm still learning how to apply pastels), dulcote, then lightly misted over with a wash of FF Banchee Shadowed Grey and FF Bleached Bone Tan. That gave the flesh area an effect of being covered with a light layer of dust.
