Description
This is the 1/6 scale Predator figure from Dark Horse.
The
figure is presented in cold-cast porcelain. This material is
smoother than standard resin and, amazingly, the entire figure is
cast in one piece with no seams or imperfections whatsoever. Of
course, this high quality comes at a corresponding price!
The
figure was painted using the Testor Aztek A470 airbrush and mainly
acrylic paints. However, the armoured parts were painted with gold
enamel before being oversprayed with an acrylic mix of
blackish-brown; then rubbed back until a burnished metal appearance
was achieved.
Although Chris usually paints exclusively using the
airbrush, this time he finished the diamond-shaped mesh using a
fine-tipped permanent black marker.
All the
remaining details, such as the mottled fur and spots in the
Predator's mouth, were applied with the Testor Aztek A470 airbrush.
