Also, a new paint style? Ive been wanting to take my painting to 'the next level', and ive hit a wall. This latest figure is WIP of my first attempt at using James Wappel's 'Shaded Basecoat' technique. I like the results, but I need some more practice.

The Dark Knight
The Caped Crusader. Batman.
Sadly, my pictures didnt turn out that well - the bright lights I use totally washed out the dark greys I used to highlight Bruce Wayne. Oh well - this one looks spectacular in person. You will have to come to my house to see it!

Heroes In A Half Shell
I was onboard with the TMNT long before they became a 'kiddie movie'. I loved the comics back in the late 80s, when it was mostly black and white, they killed, and they all wore red bandanas (before they had to dumb it down with the different colors for the kids). These were challenging models - difficult colors for me, and lots and lots of detail on each figure.
