Nicely done Ulf, I particularly like Darth Vader...

Will this make the misspelled version collectable Ulf???

Both look great Ulf, and a really nice gift for your friend. I like both film franchises, but have to agree with Steve and lean towards Darth Vader as well. I really like the face and hands on Saruman. Flesh tones is a learning project I am setting for myself.

Thank you very much, mates!
Steve, what do you mean with "collectable"? Something like misprinted stamps for the philatelists?! 🙂

What a combination. The evil (Saruman) and the dark Lord (the real good guy in the Star Wars Universe). I like the right one. He looks great.

Hi Ulf. Yeah! If a manufacturer corrects a mistake, then sends the corrected ones out as orders come in for restocking. The ones not corrected become instant rarer collectors items and command a higher price.
But if it was corrected by you during the build then no, not a collectors item...
But a bloody nice build none-the-less... and priceless in our eyes😢

Ah, I see! Well I have lasered a revised label and however I am afraid I have thrown away the old one. Crap! That's like burning a poundnote! 🙁
Thank you, Arne and Christian! It seems like Darth's fan club has more members... 🙂

Thank you guys! Nice video, Choppa. 👍
A figure from the movie "Starship Troopers" would be a nice idea! No matter what Sarah Brightman sang... 😉

Ulf, you can find a lot of figures from Starship Troopers. If you want, I can show you a few photos of insects. ;-D

Hallo Ulf, mussten die beiden Figuren bemalt werden? Wenn Ja, welche Farben hast Du für Vader genommen?

Hallo Arne, natürlich mussten sie bemalt werden - sonst hätte ich ja keinen Anlass, sie hier einzustellen. 😉 Verwendet habe ich diverse Schwarz- und Dunklegrau-Töne von Vallejo Model Color, also wasserbasierte Acrylfarben. Da wo's nötig war, habe ich mit Model Color Seidenmatt- und Glanzlack den Glanzgrad eingestellt, aufgetragen per Airbrush. Ist das so weit ausreichend oder möchtest Du die Farbtöne wissen?

Hi Ulf, nein reicht vollkommen, danke. Ich habe von Andrea das Bemalset für schwarze Kleidung, damit kann ich etwas anfangen. Ich habe einen Vader in 70mm von Knight Models.

Album info
Dear mates,
here are some more well known movie characters.
Both are Star Toys hollow cast kits in 1:6.
I made them as birthday present for a close friend of mine who runs a fantastic home cinema in his cellar.
Have fun!
P.S.: The misspelled "wizzard" on Saruman's label has been corrected meanwhile!
