Those paint tubes! I can feel them in my mind!
What a cool concept!
Colossus seems very well done, even though you mentioned he is not fully painted. Definitely get the metal effect from him.
As always, a super sophisticated shoot!

Incredibly detailed and beautifully posed, as always. Awesome 'models', gorgeous work, and the 'paintings' themselves are masterpieces!

Thank you so much!!! So glad you joined the party here! Both the sketches and paintings were such a fun experiment, where I took photos, and redid them in photoshop. The paintings were printed on regular paper and transferred with modge-podge to canvas. Particularly proud of the effect on the 1/2 finished one. So glad you dig it!

I was going to say...that partially finished painting is an especially awesome touch! Really like the other paintings that he's done other characters' portraits too! And of course, I love the whole thing. Whenever I see your work it always takes my breath away a little, because not only is it beautiful, but I can also immediately tell just how much time and effort and sheer creativity must have gone into it. And especially even more now that I know better firsthand how much time even just one figure can take... seeing full dioramas is all the more impressive.

Thank you, and that means a lot to hear. I always worry that I just work so slowly. I struggle to get project time in at night during the week, and I know I put a lot of pressure on myself to get a lot done on weekends. But there are people that seem to just knock out huge and complex builds in no time, and just can't imagine how they do it. So it's really reassuring hearing you say how time consuming a single figure can be, and oh so nice to hear that the time that went into it paid off. It's also another great thing about this community, getting to share work with people who have a good sense of what goes in to a build.

Aww, you are welcome! And I completely feel your pain. Time -- and energy -- to work on projects is very limited for me as well. In my case, weekends are super busy, so I tend to only be able to work on stuff for a couple of hours in the afternoon, about 3-4 days each week at most. But it's a similar frustration... sometimes the progress is painfully slow. I don't have a ton of work space either, which makes it harder to work on multiple things at once. Then you add lack of finances and health issues, and sometimes progress simply gets held up because I have to wait 'til next month' to proceed, or I'm just too exhausted to do anything at all and don't want to risk working on something when I'm not at my best. Even a 'simple' kitbash tends to take me forever... though perhaps that is also the perfectionist in me, lol. ;p
I also completely agree on how refreshing it is to be around others who understand what goes into these things. In the past, I've had family members look at a figure and say 'so did you make that entire thing?' and when I try to explain that, er, no I didn't actually sculpt the head/build the entire body/or 'make' it from scratch, it's like they then get really dismissive and say 'oh, so you just painted it then'. And I'm just like...welp, nevermind. -_-

ReverendSpooky wrote:I totally get you. It is a really hard hobby sometimes to balance with real life obligations. And it definitely sounds like you've got a few thing making yours an uphill battle. All the more respect for sticking with it and making it work. And I totally hear you on just being exhausted, and not having the energy to give a project the attention it deserves. Thankfully sometimes I just WANT to work on something so bad it gets me through. When I can't wait to get home from work and get back at it, even if just for a bit. That's always the best part.

That IS indeed a great feeling, when you get on a roll like that and in the 'zone'.... that momentum often overrides all the other above issues, and you just keep working til somehow it's miraculously done. Other than on 1/6 projects, the only other time I've experienced that kind of weirdly euphoric creative state was this one summer when I wrote a novel length fanfic almost without stopping. Practically slept and dreamed it, even. I guess that is what people mean when they say let the muse take over... :')
ETA: Speaking of muses, one of my favourite things about this whole series of photos is how you have Psylocke wrapping herself up in that shawl after the session is finished. It gives a beautiful sense of vulnerability to the character and an intimacy to the scene. I personally find the image of her standing there in nothing but her stockings, heels, and that shawl to be at once so much sexier and also more realistic than if she'd just been stark naked. After all, a studio in an old building with high ceilings like that would probably be kinda cold. ;D VERY well done.
