Breast cancer Brawl: ESkarre finished.

Well, here she is, ready to go off to the tourney. I am fairly pleased with how she turned out, though I felt I rushed her a bit at the end because I'm a terrible procrastinator. I think when I buy one for myself, I may go with an almost exact color scheme.(minus the pink hair) I'm glad I got asked to paint her for a good cause, and hope to do more in the future.

Breast Cancer Donation WIP...

Well here is the latest installment of the fig. Scotty suggested doing green, yellow and red for the beads but I decided to incorporate that into the dress as well. I wasn't sure how it would turn out but so far it looks good. Now I just have to tie everything else in. I decided to do pink fingernails for to signify the Breast Cancer theme. Not really fond of the armor breast plate but it will have to do. I might give the blade a tint of pink too. Still thinking about that one. Another suggestion from Scotty was to darken the edges where the wrist cloth made contact with the skin. Once I did that with a dark blue it made the wrist cloth really pop.

Tekwar and Total Recall 2070

Tekwar and Total Recall 2070 are two shows I've wanted to see for years ( I've seen the Tekwar movies but not the TV series ) and today they arrived in my mailbox and I'm really looking forward to seeing them.

Sucker Punch

I finally got to see Sucker Punch yesterday on Blu-ray, I watched the extended version and not the theatrical release and I really enjoyed it, I can see why people wouldn't like the movie but it was pretty much exactly what I expected it to be right down to the so-called twist at the end ( they were hinting at it early on in the film ).

This was a fun little movie and one I'll be sure to watch again.

Grim's Boobie Brawl Contribution

Along with my fellow Geeks here in the garage, I was also asked to paint a fig for our local Boobie Brawl Tourney to support Breast Cancer Awareness. I was given eHaley. Such a cooooool fig. As I don't play Cygnar it is a nice change of pace to paint one of the boys.....errrr girls in blue. As I started this project, the biggest problem for me was figuring out which area I should implement the one stipulation for painting the fig... "somethings gotta be pink" After consulting a buddy and staring at the fig for awhile... this is what I came up with.

Progress so far: Pinks- Completed. Blues- almost finished... need to tighten up some of the transitions from shade to highlight. Whites- only base coated. Most of the black will end up being metallic.

Thanks for takin a peek, and follow us... you won't regret it.

Godzilla Vs Megalon

I know that they are not to every one's taste but I enjoy Godzilla movies and while I don't own all of them I do have a lot of them, last night I watched Godzilla vs Megalon for the first time ( that I can recall ) and it was just terrible, easily one of the worst movies I've seen in ages, in fact Godzilla was only in it for around 20 minutes, this felt more like an attempt to launch a spin-off movie series.

This one was pretty disappointing but hopefully the next one will be a return to form.

WIP: Breast Cancer Brawl Donation

So, along with John, I was also asked to paint a fig for our local Breast Cancer awareness tournament. I ended up getting handed E-Skarre to paint, and I have to say that I am mightily impressed with how nice of a figure this is. Real fun to paint so far, I'm going to have to get one for my Cryx army now for sure.
Here's is what I've gotten done on her so far.
