Photostory time!

Well done, Kat.
I have finally reshot the first chapter of Strike 5.
Here is the prologue: http://storyleague.weebly.com/interviews.html
And here is the first chapter in comic form: http://storyleague.weebly.com/chapter-1.html

Motorcycles

So, since no one in my family got me any 1/6 stuff for New Year's, I figured I'd do it myself.
I got these:

Left to right: Iron Legends Orange County Choppers, Iron Legends Arlen Ness, NewRay RoadRider Indian and New Ray Honda.

They are all bloody amazing and are exactly what the characters needed. So, I gave them to my bike-riding crew.

Jaimie got the first one. She wanted a sports bike, so that's what she got.

Andrew had to have the Indian. Just look at him.

Shane got the Arlen Ness. His older brother was a motorcycle enthusiast and passed this on to Shane when he died a few years back. Shane takes amazing care of it.

The Orange County went to Pepper. It's the smallest bike, and due to her articulation being less then I'd like, it's the only one she can ride. It fits her though.

Mama Shi

Still working on Elm Guard (which Shen Li is a part of), I made Mama Shi.

She is an earth elemental.

She started out as a Triad Alpha body with a South African barbie head. 

 

As you can see, the body and the face did not match colors, so I body blushed until they did. 

There were still things wrong. Her neck had to be sanded down and she didn't have enough of a voodoo look to her, so I rerooted her in wool dreadlocks.

Li Shen

Phew, I've been busy.
I've been playing and customizing a lot, but I just never seem to take pictures and write about it.

Here is a bit from last month.
Working on the characters for one of my photostories, I made up Shen Li. He is a water elemental, who grew up in a monastery in the Blue Mountains.

He is a Volks tan body & head, painted and rooted by yours truly. God, do I hate painting. I can't do it :(

Fantasy project: Kaia

So, while working on my fantasy challenge entry, I learned quite a few things.Like molding hair and flocking.

This is technically not the first step, since the lips are already repainted on her.

Took out all the hair. Pain in the butt, it's all glued on the inside.

I'd never be able to do tutorials, forgot to take pictures of molding hair and painting it. Here her hair is already flocked on top of modeling paste and paint.

Eyes repainted to suit her character.

Fantasy project: boots.

Here we go.
Making shoes process.

Side pieces.

Front and sides glued together.

Added laces and heels.

Back is sewed up.

Painted the sides and the heels.

Added the top piece with the kunai sheaths and knives. 

I finished my entry for the fantasy challenge.
I learned how to do molded hair, flocking and even certain repainting.
I can now make leather boots for MH from Scratch.
I made kunai knives out of sculpey.

I wanna kill myself.

I have two weeks till the challenge is over.
WHY AM I CONSIDERING DOING ANOTHER PROJECT?!

Anyways. Pictures and details will follow.
