Hellooooo!!

Long time ago since my last post.

Today I want to post you something crazy... a big project that I had in mind for several years, but I was never able to do. Until now.

So I began to create a bust of a Space Marine at 1:10 scale (approximately), using a PVC figure as a base. For the head I needed something special... so I used an Action Man!

After I prepared the materials, I documented me to recreate a space marine power armor. To do this I had to modeling the chest with putty and added supplements (metal pegasus wings, wires ...). For shoulder pads I used plastic accessories of a famous coffee company ...

After the composition and scaling work, comes the paint. I tried to capture the concept of a rough space marine with his facial wounds.

I hope you like this bust. I'm very proud of it!!

Be happy!!!

Uh, wow! That is amazing. I second the redness around the cybernetic implants, looks nasty and painful. I kinda like the numbers on the shoulder pads, seems more military and adds interest to the model.

You should be very proud of this.

The head is my favourite bit without a doubt but the numbers on the shoulder pads don't look right and the insignia seems a little small.

That looks AWESOME...the head at the end doesn't even look close to the action man head at the start...well done!

I actually quite like the numbers, they look like stamped serials on the shoulder pads.
