Man, the colors on the boots really stands out and looking like a TRUE PROFESSIONAL would do. Olds ... you are so multi-talented ...

Thanks everyone :) I use various materials. I do use Aves Fixit Sculpt on some items, and I also use styrene strips and sheets for other details. The "S" shield is cut from a thin styrene sheet that I formed to the chest with a heat gun.

Great idea on the styrene!! Where do you get that stuff, Menards, Home Depot?

Also, is that Fix-It better than Apoxie?

You can get styrene at most hobby stores. FixIt is also made from Aves and it's also an apoxie.

Oh and here is a little more progress on Hardcase.

I sure love the paint that you used in your customs ... very bright and very shiny and that's what I liked about your work here ... Olds!!!
