Next project(Finished- pics added)
My next proect is the spotter for my sniper. I began with the BBI Freedom Force 82nd AB figure. The chest was reduced using the methods in "SPEC Figures". The head was given a base coat of flesh tone acryllic, and finished with oils.

He's all done-----

Nicely done! Where can I find more of the info about "Spec Figures"? Is that a magazine? Definately keep us up to date on your progress. I checked out your site and was highly impressed with your work. My focus is modern figures as well, and I definately like the work you've done.

Joel, The book I'm referring to is "SPEC Figures- 1/6 styling manual". It is almost entirely in Japanese. There are some English parts, mainly the lists of gear used in the figures. Here's the URL for the "SPEC Figures" site- SPEC figures
I got the book from Amazon.com in Japan for about $31 and it took about a week to get here. The order info is down near the bottom of the page under the English info.

Rangr 504, you really missed out. Sam drove down from Austin for the Sunday Meet. He brought 7 or 8 outstanding customized figures for the S&T section of the meeting, took pictures of the Tank Obstacle course, and brought his son Jacob along, too. Sam is now our newest local member.

Darn I wish I could have been there. I went out of town for a job interview that ended up keeping me over the weekend. Sure wish I could have been there.

OUTSTANDING! He's just as good as his fellow sniper. I'm truly sorry that I missed the meeting and the opportunity to welcome you and your son to our lil family. Unfortunately, I had a job interview out of town that carried over into the weekend. I hope you both had a great time and enjoyed yourselves. I look forward to meeting you in the future. Thank you again for the pics and can't wait to see more of your work!!

Joel
