The tag is actually F U in the Star Wars language

A couple little things I was able to paint last night.

First a “zombie” wolf I started years ago and just finally primed and painted.

And Castle Grayskull

This was just a fun little paint job.

It’s the mini castle. Not really in scale with anything. Came with a weird proportioned He Man figure

i thought it was, but it just looks so good! spec said they look toy scale for barbies. you should seal it and put it in a terrarium with a spider or scorpion.

One more racer. This one with the driver. I don’t have a name for either so I’m open to suggestions.

Again, lots to do still. I want to add more firepower to the vehicle. The driver is pretty much set other than a name and color scheme.

Since the car is an old Spidey vehicle and has spiders as rims I’m leaning towards a spider name, but like I said I’m open to suggestions.

He looks a lot like "Frankenstein" from the Death Race movies to me.

That wolf and Castle Grayskull are well done. Those minor reddish and dark details are washes, right?

Yeah on the castle stone I used a wash of Agrax Earthshade.

A few figures tonight. Nothing crazy, just some figures I made using the fodder I have lying around.

First is an Instagator. These are survivors that live on the fringes of the race circuit. They “find” supplies along the race route and take joy in trying to kill the racers.

The next two are a couple of ninjas. Pretty straight forward.

The last in a punk. A kid living in the wastes trying to survive.

cool use of the heatshrink for a mask! what did you use to shrink it? looks like i could be shrunk a bit more for a tighter/better fit. it might just be thicker heatshrink though.

I used a lighter. It really is shrunk as good as it can for this head. I tried shrinking it more before pics and it wasn't going anywhere.

i bet you have thicker heatshrink. some i have is super thin, it was the cheapest ebay set. it still looks good, if a lighter won't shrink it more than it is done shrinking! i thought maybe you used hot water, or a hair dryer. both of those won't get it hot as good old fire.

I think it also might be the picture, in hand you can easily make out the nose, mouth, and chin. Whereas in this pic it looks flat

i wonder if water slide decals stick to heatshrink? i've never used them, but a white print pattern might sell heatshrink as a bandanna. i know it paints well.
