Storm Rider guy - finished

I know that I haven't been updating my blog as often as I used to, but my work is keeping me away (weird, all over schedule).  Every second I get, I spend on working on my kits.  The updating the blog is a little bit behind.

Anyway, I finished my Storm Rider guy (the big one :D ).  It was a challenge to pin him, since the parts are so  heavy and the cape kept over balancing the whole kit   >.<
I was very happy when he was stable (without gluing the cape in) and all painted.  Of course after that I had to photograph him and that's another challenge :D

I hope you like him.

This is one of my favorite pics of him.  Love the moodiness of him :D

Just in case if anybody wonders, I did not glue the cape or his head in.  I already had to find a very very very big box to fit him in :D
This guy really demands some attention when he is in the room.

Have some updates on the big guy from Storm Riders.
I had him prepped for some time now, but didn't get a chance to paint him.  Well now I did :D

Projects updates

Ones again, I didn't update my blog for a very long time.  Between my infection in my teeth coming back (my jaw was swollen again), the side effects of my medication and work trip, I barely have any time to do anything.
Sorry to everyone who is following this :D  I will try harder to keep you updated.

Even with a shortage of time and energy, I did finished up some stuff.

Lately I've been working on finishing up my Crystal Elf kit. 
She's been on hold for a while, but I got a "go" from a client and now its time for her to be painted.
Most of the work was done long time ago (I am not even sure how long), so now I am just in the process of painting her.

Skin tone (I added some more shading after this photo)

 Her very cool wings :D

 I just love painting Dark Elf's face.  The sculpt is so gorgeous that it almost paints itself.

And a quick test fit.
I just have couple more details to paint and she is done.

Another project on my table right now is a Bayonetta kit (the 1/4 scale). 

That girl is huge  O_O

My hands a very itchy right now to start working on her (she is taking a purple bath right now :D).  But to just give you ideas, here is some preview

Of course she is making a great company for my Storm Rider :D

So now I just have to pray that my infection will pass and I don't have to take some even stronger medicine.  I am very sick of having constant taste of bitter medicine in my mouth. 
I just want to go and play with my new projects :D

Storm Riders finished

I loved working on this guys.
1st - they are actually guy kits :D
2nd - they are plastic, which I never worked with before
and 3rd - it was just fun

I hope you like them too

by the way, their heads are about a size of my nail   O_o  
it was very "fun" to paint their eyes

No updates for a week, and now I am overflowing with stuff :D

Started to paint my Storm Rider guys.
Tried to match the colors as close as possible to the reference.

Had a lot of fun with the base (love painting water on clear plastic)

I love this purple, maybe I should use it more often :D

This is what I have today. Two lonely guys without heads :D

I've been working on Storm Rider guys.
Glued the parts together and primed them. There is not that much clean up on plastic kits, so painting starts very soon :D

The hair of one guy and the head of the other are made from a rubber like material. Its all squishy :D

The cape is the only piece that gave me any problems. I had to glue the very thin main part to the plastic/clear collar part.

Another commission project (two projects actually :D )
This guys are from Storm Riders anime. Both of them are plastic kits, about 1/8 scale. The cool thing is that they are cast in clear plastic.

First guy.

The second guy.
