Another couple of birthday present figures

Mathias Carl
Live sind die Figuren ein echter Hammer 👍
Sind beide wirklich klasse geworden.

Nicely done Ulf, I particularly like Darth Vader...

QUOTE>>> P.S.: The misspelled "wizzard" on Saruman's label has been corrected meanwhile! <<<END QUOTE

Will this make the misspelled version collectable Ulf???

Alan Rush
Both look great Ulf, and a really nice gift for your friend. I like both film franchises, but have to agree with Steve and lean towards Darth Vader as well. I really like the face and hands on Saruman. Flesh tones is a learning project I am setting for myself.

Ulf Petersen
Thank you very much, mates!
Steve, what do you mean with "collectable"? Something like misprinted stamps for the philatelists?! 🙂

Christian Meyerhoff
May the dark side be with you Ulf!
Outstanding!

Arne Greve
What a combination. The evil (Saruman) and the dark Lord (the real good guy in the Star Wars Universe). I like the right one. He looks great.

Hi Ulf. Yeah! If a manufacturer corrects a mistake, then sends the corrected ones out as orders come in for restocking. The ones not corrected become instant rarer collectors items and command a higher price.
But if it was corrected by you during the build then no, not a collectors item...
But a bloody nice build none-the-less... and priceless in our eyes😢

Ulf Petersen
Ah, I see! Well I have lasered a revised label and however I am afraid I have thrown away the old one. Crap! That's like burning a poundnote! 🙁
Thank you, Arne and Christian! It seems like Darth's fan club has more members... 🙂

Choppa Nutta
Doesn't matter really Ulf as they are a gift anyway 🙂
plus they look good !! 🙂

Choppa Nutta
lol are those not aspects of geekdom ? 😄
I too look forward to episode 7 🙂
Now, who's your daddy ? 😄

Choppa Nutta
reminds me of a song 🙂

Choppa Nutta
bot the song I was thinking of... although it does have the word ship in the title and one of the lyrics uses the word trooper 😄

Ulf Petersen
Thank you guys! Nice video, Choppa. 👍
A figure from the movie "Starship Troopers" would be a nice idea! No matter what Sarah Brightman sang... 😉

Arne Greve
Ulf, you can find a lot of figures from Starship Troopers. If you want, I can show you a few photos of insects. ;-D

Ulf Petersen
Oh yeah!!!👍

Arne Greve
I guess, at home, I have an old kit from Heller of an lady bug. :-D

Bojan Bogdanovic
Great work. Especially Vader. The Force is strong with this one.😉

Ulf Petersen
Thank you Bojan!🙂

Arne Greve
Hallo Ulf, mussten die beiden Figuren bemalt werden? Wenn Ja, welche Farben hast Du für Vader genommen?

Ulf Petersen
Hallo Arne, natürlich mussten sie bemalt werden - sonst hätte ich ja keinen Anlass, sie hier einzustellen. 😉 Verwendet habe ich diverse Schwarz- und Dunklegrau-Töne von Vallejo Model Color, also wasserbasierte Acrylfarben. Da wo's nötig war, habe ich mit Model Color Seidenmatt- und Glanzlack den Glanzgrad eingestellt, aufgetragen per Airbrush. Ist das so weit ausreichend oder möchtest Du die Farbtöne wissen?

Arne Greve
Hi Ulf, nein reicht vollkommen, danke. Ich habe von Andrea das Bemalset für schwarze Kleidung, damit kann ich etwas anfangen. Ich habe einen Vader in 70mm von Knight Models.
