How 'bout that?
Didn't even realize the damage! I made this figure about 10 years ago, before I learned to do any sculpting, (decent) sanding, etc.
It's also painted with acrylics paints. I now use spray paint to get the "base color" of a figure down, which minimizes chipping. I still use acrylics, but mostly for painting details. Sometimes if working with the rubbery plastics of the NS figures, too. The dark green base color for this figure was an acrylic mix that I doubt I could match again if I repaired the waist.
Damn. I may have to scrounge up a new batch of parts and make another run at this look. Maybe a comic pack head this time?
