22. Happy International Women's Day!



Also, my parents' anniversary. My dad really gets to save on flowers. But I doubt that had anything to do with picking a date...

Aww, what a beautiful picture. Great choices all around, especially the heads! Nice to see such a hunk of a guy with such a sweet smile. And the way she looks at him... You matched their lines of sight beautifully, too! Well done!

Thank you, Diana, I'm glad you approve! I do try to switch up the heads I show a bit (you've seen her already, but not this hair version). And I do admit I took a few photos before getting the right pose and angle.

Somehow I missed your last two pics, Ian. Sorry about that. Love the fireplace scene. And I’m guessing when you’re folks picked the date for their wedding International Women’s Day didn’t exist. That’s a more modern thing because apparently there aren’t enough days where we’re expected to buy flowers and/or jewelry (thanks no doubt to Hallmark, florists and jewelers).

Thank you very much, Mark, I'm glad you liked them.
As for International Women's Day, apparently it goes back to the US in 1909 (looked it up). It was a Socialist party thing then and was accordingly promoted in countries under Communist rule. No candy or jewelry involved, as far as I know, although flowers were, often. My mom (who was an architect) relates that the top boss would make the rounds, greeting each female employee with a handshake and an unsolicited kiss. The employees were understandably very ambivalent about that "honor," but both employment status and totalitarian political dogma kept them from protesting. Quite ironic, really, considering the purpose of the thing. So when I congratulate her on both their anniversary and on this, it is with a lot of teasing irony (for the above, and the family suffering a lot from Communist authorities). But if we look past such paradoxes and political/rhetorical implications, I think the intentions were good, and quite forward looking over a hundred years ago.

I never thought that a photo involving Peacemaker can be described as "sweet"

Nice to see Ammo Arms ladies in the middle of celebration!

Thank you, they certainly enjoyed their celebration

@Ian and @Dal: nice pictures with positive vibes! In Berlin, Germany, International Women's Day is a public holiday!

But isn't it? I like John Cena, he has amazing comedic potential, and I think the makers of the series tapped into that.

Thank you, Oliver, I'm glad you liked them. Apparently it is in China too, but only for women!

I really like the pics at the fireplace!

And I had to think of this thread when I saw the Oscar images from last night. I just connect Cena now with Ian lol





As for the scond pic for women day, I think your female figure has the perfect stare/view for that photo It works

Thank you, glad you liked them, Simon. And LOL. I think I can probably recreate that Cena look... perhaps I need to recolor another body pale.

Have you seen the third-party Peacemaker/Cena head sculpts? They're supposed to supplement the Hot Toys release. Could be promising.

I'm not sure if they are the same, but I've pre-ordered one. Actually, it would be my 4th John Cena head sculpt, if and when it gets here.

Ok, I checked today, and the one I've preordered is by Present Studio or Present Toys rather than SooSoo, which is the one you're showing. Present Studio/Toys's is just a head. Looks pretty good on the prototype.

Yeah, I agree. Both sculpts look great!

Well... it's 17 March in Ireland, so...

23. Happy Saint Patrick's Day!



I knew better, but Conor insisted...

He looks to be having fun!

Haha, noice!! 

Now I'd really like to go outside, but I have to pack for my move on Thursday. 

(That is such a nice head!!)

I'm glad he insisted, it looks ridiculous but awesome

Or he is too tipsy to care.

Thanks, this one was from a military set (DAM's Russian Spetsnaz FSB Alpha Group Gunner) and not one of the specific Conor McGregor heads, though it is based on him.

Good luck with the move!

Thanks, I was going for ridiculous so I guess I succeeded!

23. Happy Easter!

Seeking to amaze his beloved with the biggest and sparkliest Easter egg ever, John incurred the wrath of a majestic bird of prey.

Who would have thought it would be the beginning of a beautiful friendship?

That's a huge egg
But looks like the newly found friendship is the biggest prize here.

Nice pic of Cena. Is that a custom sculpt?
