LifeForce Headless Horseman- Sleepy Hollow COMPLETED

#1 Post by Liquid »

Just finished this today. Thanks to Mitchellmania for sending this monster of a kit to me. Alot of the close up shots of the face came up blurry but I will be taking more tommorrow because I did a veining pattern on the face with chalk pastels. This was an awesome kit and I was very pleased with the outcome! Thanks for looking!

Looks sweet!! Looking forward to seeing the face close-ups.

This is such a cool kit. I remember pestering poor Ant for this at Wonderfest.

Thanks for all the great comments guys! Here are some pics of the face a little closer. The veining pattern doesn't show up well on camera. I did the whole face other than the hair and basic skin tones in chalk pastels.

Great paint job J! Really fine details do seem to not photograph well. Had that problem more than once myself.
