I wanted to give you all a quick update on the project, before I enter the Poppasleep for the evening. I’ve replenished my supply of Green Stuff (epoxy modelling gunk), and begun work on some of the big guns. I’ll post more pictures later, but for now, feast your eyes on the beginnings of the star of the show, the Tick. First came a nerve-wracking session separating Guido’s head from his body with a VERY sharp Xacto knife. Then came the part I feared the most, sculpting the new head. I toyed with the idea of altering an existing head, but the Tick has a very distinctive melon, and there weren’t any out there that came close enough. I’m no sculptor, but I figured the Tick’s head had a simple enough shape that I could manage to do a respectable job. The antennae are a job for another day, but so far I think Big Blue is shaping up nicely. As always, your comments are welcome.
