HAPPY ALIEN DAY!!! smile emoticon Hope everyone has a chance to celebrate in their own way! For me it feels like everyday is Alien day in one form or another. LOL!
Sculpt/Build progress on the Narcissus Shuttle/Stowaway - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale. Completed the build of the sleeping stowaway, the next step is to fill the gaps. If you think assembling a hand made, articulated figure is difficult, try assembling a static posed figure in a sleeping/resting position and make it look convincing. It takes a heat gun, temperature and time...and timing is everything. Mess up, right back to casting replacement parts to the point where I just took a day and cast parts exclusively so I wouldn't be delayed again.
The shell of the Narcissus wall panel continues to progress. Looks rough right now but for it being only a structural build without detailing it's acceptable. The figure will be removable from the back of the diorama if need be. I also completed the dome portion of the tower build for the shuttle.
The image of the Alien is my 300th work in progress shot since I began sculpting the beast. It's been a heck of a run and I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel with the Big Chap...but the crew isn't complete and my ALIENS project is only beginning so the work continues.
More to come! #alien #alienday #narcissus #shuttle #nostromo #aliens #stowaway #sculpture #diorama
