So like i said in the workstation, i've been wanting to give this guy a crack since i first joined the realm and noticed there was only 3 entries into the Bucky O'Hare category. I wanted to go away from my usual style and try something else. So I went for a cartoon style. It was quite nerve racking adding the black lines after doing all the layers of paint he needed. There are a few lines that went wrong but overall i'm pretty pleased with him. Here's the recipe.
RECIPE:
Base = DCUC Negative man, torso, arms and legs re-sculpted for that spacesuit look.
Head = Vintage Bucky O'Hare, ears shaved down and foam for the ear cuffs. It just sits over the head of a DCUC Dr.Midnite.
Collar = sculpted, stars are the mives old earrings.
Stars on epalletes = cut out from a fancy watch strap.
Epalettes and cloak = vintage Bucky, sculpt to blend.
Upper gloves = Vintage Bucky, sculpt to blend.
lower gloves = Sculpted.
Hands = ML Beta ray Bill.
Belt = Sculpted some random tube for the raised bits.
Lower legs = DCUC Firestorm, sculpted boots.
Feet = DCUC Firestorm, sculpted over with foam for the treads.
Gun = Unsure, maybe transformers.
Painted with the usual Games workshop paints, diluted and multiple coats. Sealed with superglue and Satin sealer.
Had a blast trying this new style and I do have plans to do a few more at some point. Thanks for looking and hope you like.
Amazing paint job! Amazing work, dude!
Bucky turned out a million times better than I had envisioned him from your WIP post.
Beautiful custom! Now I want one more than ever.
