I know that feeling... I still haven't resumed my Pilder project nor any of my other projects since these past couple years. I notice you're using two different colored resins. Let me guess: the white resin is the Casting Craft brand; and the dark beige resin is the Alumilite brand. Am I right? zozo-mag

Hey, I also forgot to compliment you on that Duke Gorgon there... it looks awesome. Can we have a closeup view of it? Or would you prefer us to wait until it's completed?

You'll need a very fine tipped brush for that one. The paint must also be thinned (not too much), or applied in Very THIN coats (two coats is enough) for an object THAT size.

Right said. Doing that kind of work aint no easy skate across the lake.
My lil tiny Koji pilot... I'll make a copy of it and work with the copy... I just Know I'll end up damaging the original pilot after all the time and effort I put into it. lol
Hey, speaking of Detail: doesn't Ankie have a chain on his sword? ;D

Yeap, it is best to always work with a copy. What sucks is when the "copy" turns out better than the original after you're done with it. ;D Yes, Ankouku has a chain attached to the scabbard. I'll add it once it is all painted. }D

I'm very impressed with the detail on Ankie's kilt and chest armor. I presume you used a statue-type Ankoku figure to replicate those two parts, right? The biceps and shoulders look like SOC Maz parts... ...there's no mistaking those biceps and shoulders. Joints: revoltech. Booooouyaaaaaa! zozo-mag

Awesome work! How tall is it would you say? Then have you considered metal sintering?

Thanks Y'All! Ufff, admin1, I surely would do it if I had the money. Unfortunately, I'm a little strapped for cash these days... }D
