The Kurgan's a bit OTT, methinks;

What else would you expect from Mr. Krabs/Sgt. Zim/Rawhide/Surtur?

There was a time when as students we would get drunk on a Friday night and watch Highlander.  I know it so well that Mrs z won't watch it with me as I recite the dialogue.  With bad impressions.

That's me with Wrath of Khan.  And having the La-La Land Records 2 disk release of the complete soundtrack certainly doesn't help Mrs Scooter as I quote along with music. :wacko:

Won't be finished this weekend, as I'm working, & I have to find some very fine chain to finish one bit off, which I'll do on Monday.

The beard & moustache were made with Apoxy Sculpt, the braids are made of plaited string & the ties below his knees are made from small strips of alcohol cleaning wipe.

Thanks, Phill! :bow:


The last two images show up various flaws in my painting technique(s) BUT, as he's only 75mm (3") tall & no-one is ever going to see him that close-up, I don't care! ;D

F**kin A mate.  :thumbsup:

When you said "large figure" I was thinking around 1/6 scale.  This is what, about 1/25?
 :bow:
Considering the size it's awesome.

Fred, 75mm = 1/24, apparently.
