Nutcracker Update

AFS Build Update

Again the basic color has been laid down and some slight camo added.

AFS MkII update

The basic color has been laid down. I also made larger shoulder armor using fake toenails and some bolt details I'll be changing the tone through filters and weathering

Size comparison

Just FYI, the "martian" is advertised as 1/18 scale, but looks darn close to acceptable 1/20 scale. Here's some side by side with the new Brickworks pilot kit and some suits. Just fill the holes in the head where the antennae go and you have a pilot. Cheaper at $20 that the Brickworks figures got AND you have a spacecraft!

My Favorite martian build

Just got this kit from Pegasus, it's  really cool. It has a fantastic sculpt of Ray Walston- the "martian" the space craft took 5 minutes,... 5 MINUTES seriously to build. The paint on the Martian is just some rough basecoating.

Basic paint color has been started.
I am not sure if this will be a single color suit
or if it will be a camo scheme.

SAFS - 2

SAFS

Started another suit, the SAFS. I want to build this straight from the box basically. I am adding small details where the hoses attach, but that is about it.

AFS build - a few more

AFS Build July 2011

added a few modifications to the AFS build. I'm thinking long range scout. 

Please ignore the state it's in. I will clean up the dust and fuzz!
