Hi to all,
Hopefully I have been able to post some pic' s (under guidance from Phantom! Top Man!!!).

As you can see, it is a variation on the 'Black cat' figure from legend & it is painted in oils. This is my second female figure after getting back into Modelling after a sabbatical of 30 years. (Due to the son & his Warhammer). The first figure is 'Need for speed' which I also built for my Motorcycle models & when I retreave this figure from my storage box, I will post some more Pic's. Please feel free to pass any comments as I would value some feedback. (Constructive critism is preferred!!!)

damn, that blows the socks off of mine mate !

I'm having a devil of a time painting those stringy parts on the rear of her suit as well as along the sides. Even though i am just experimenting with my new aibrush i sealed the flesh tones with clear Matt varnish and it seems to have taken away alot of the shading differences :-(

i sure hope i can get some of it back with the oil wash i plan too use at the end.

Hi

Its Ian the mad jock in the kilt from Friendship Models.

As you know I really liked this figure when you showed her to me at South Shields? Northern Model Show.

I am hoping that Legend will be releasing a couple of ex coree / new Female Figures called Harley Girl and Cow girl. I am still trying to find photos of these on the net, as Chan doesnt have any of the original art work left. Plus it tends to be pretty crap.

I am hoping that I may have a built up and primed model available for show at the UK IPMS Nats.

If Possible I would love to borrow your figure for my trade display stand I am going to have the display models under glass thisyear.

I have also manage to get the OSo figure kits in you recommended, I am still trying to figure out a price, the F1 drivers should be over £20.00 for 1/12th scale I will be taking them to Telford with me if you are still interested in them.

Cheers

Ian

Hi Fazer,

You could always use the pic of Need for Speed from your album on MotorcycleModelling

Hi Ian,
No problem with using my figure on you display stand at the show. I will also bring my 'need for speed' figure both will be complete with bikes!

Hi Katman, thanks for the suggestion, I am (hoping) to complete a R1 custom bike for the 'need for speed' figure & will take some more photo's then.
Regards
Fazer
