Morning all,

broke wabbits ear off yet again and dropped Miss RPG resulting in broken wrist, loose RPG and as I later found, a broken neck!

primed last night but may need a little remedial work after the damage - here are the pics anyway


getting close to paint......

 

[Steve Jones]

A labour of love methinks :smiling: . A nice necklace or handkerchief around her neck will sort that crack out. Wonderful work sir

 

[Guest]

Wow. Si I still can't get over this , so used to your armour.:surprised:
Think Steve is right about the neck covering, may be a studded collar, very Goth like.

 

[Neil Merryweather]

That Wabbit looks EVIL

Simon,
This is looking good cant wait for the paint to go on.

 

[SimonT]

Steve/John - after four attempts at filling sanding priming her neck I finally got it to a point where I am happy so no need for the scarf :thumb2:

Neil - he certainly is

Scottie - read on

So, after doing the washing up and getting the washing machine going I dragged out the airbrush gear and made a start

They both got a base coat of vj shadows flesh - I dislike airbrushing vj paint but my Tamiya paint stock does not have such a good range of colours

Luckily for the most part they sprayed not too badly today

Next she got vj flesh base followed by highlights of vj flesh highlights

Steve asked me if I was going to paint Mr Wabbit in fluffy pink - so why not. It explains why he is always angry. Send in the fluffy wabbit first, no one will shoot him....

So he got a nice coating of vj old rose



Still a very long way to go but the rest will be by hairy stick

 

[Steve Jones]

LOL!!

 

[Guest]

Great stuff Simon - Lady and skwewy wabbit look eminently paintable.

 

[Fernando N]

Interesting duo Simon, neat work on the wabbit and the lady with all the adjustments and alterations:thumb2:.

Nice start on the paintwork too, the pink will certainly make him stand out:smiling:.

 

[Jim R]

Hi Simon
Glad wabbit's ear and her neck are mended. Looking good and I like Steve's pink idea. Good luck with the rest of the painting and don't drop it!!
Jim

 

[SimonT]

Thank you all and I shall try not to drop it again

Hope to do a little more tomorrow tonight

 

[Mini Me]

So Mr. Waskely Wabbit is now transformed into the Energizer Bunny with one stroke of the brush!
I feel warm and fuzzy all over. Great work Mr. T, you are more than holding your own with this pair. Cheers, Rick H.

 

[rtfoe]

Simon...for crying out loud get a holder...the poor bunny is getting some really bad ear ache. Looking good so far... :tears-of-joy: pink, he's gonna hate you.

Cheers,
Richard

 

[SimonT]

Rick - paint probably won't be great but at least I am having fun trying

Richard - probably drop the holder as well :rolling: I will have to be careful when I give him the assault rifle:smiling5:

Well I made a start - this is what three hours and a hairy stick resulted in



sorry about fuzzy pics - phone not proper camera


this looks terrible blown up - urgghhhh

 

[Steve Jones]

She is awesome. Fantastic work. However the rabbit has been smoking some serious s**t LOL

 

[Si Benson]

Have to agree with Mr Jones, she has scrubbed up nicely, Mr Wabbit definitely looks unhinged :upside:

 

[Guest]

Ooooh, nice!

 

[Jim R]

Hi Simon
She is coming on a treat. Agree that Dylan the Wabbit looks 'far out man'
Jim

 

[scottie3158]

Simon,
Looking good.

 

[Mini Me]

I'm with the others! She's the bomb and Mr. Wabbit is definitely whacked out! You may end up surprising yourself Mr. T. Please carry on. Rick H.
