“Indiana Jones”
« on: April 13, 2023, 01:11:25 AM »
All,
       I’ve been enjoying building up SciFi minis from Stargrave and Frostgrave plastics.  I recently picked up a sprue of gunfighters from Great Escape Games with an eye to make a sort of Firefly crew.  While I was working on them, I looked at one mini in particular and said hmmn to myself.  Well, after a head swap from a Copplestone gangster, a coiled rope and the right paint job, I find myself with a pretty darn good Indiana Jones stand in.

Thanks, I decided to go with the coiled rope rather than a haversack.  What do you think?

Nick, m'boy, shame and calumny be upon your head!  How dare you, sir!?  How dare you indeed?  You have referred to Indy's bullwhip as a coil of rope? Methinks it is high time you rewatch some of those movies!!!!  lol :o :D

Lovely work and your color choices are spot on for the painting.

Pity about the rope, though.  :(

Fifteens,
              Just pretend I said bullwhip.  Looks the same really.  :)

Just modified Indy, added a haversack and moved the bullwhip to the right side over the holster.

He looks good!  I just painted my Artizan Indy…had to add a whip to him too, but I’m liking the haversack.  Clever use of plastics here fella.

Sculpting a hat is not easy.  Looking forward to seeing a photo.
