Snow White. Update

Sooo I got it done in the 12hrs. Technically I did it over a few days because I had to keep working on the video for the week in between. But 12hrs to print and paint. It’s actually crazy. One thing though is that the fast resin is so brittle. Like for real super duper brittle. And there was a compromise between quality and speed in many places. Like where I press my thumb into the skin tone on the arm. And the layer lines etc. I could’ve put more time into prep and had it done over a lon...

Venom complete.

Here is my first venom I’ve ever made. He’s not really one of my favorite characters but since I have a spidey collection it made sense to make a venom one day and I waited for the right one and zez was an obvious choice.

This video goes live tommorow and it’s the first time I’ve hidden my work in progress from the public until upload so let’s hope this video goes nuts 🥜

Also I will work on a video for patreon only in the next couple days.

Ps your mom says ...

Snow White speed paint.

Soo it is totally possible to print and paint a 1/4scale statue in 12 hours. Yep that includes print time and prep as well as recording cos you know I recorded that!! I just have to do her face and hair which is not going to take more than 30 -40 mins. I may live stream the ending tomorrow but don’t hold your breath hahaha. So far, 5hrs to print and 5 and a half hours on paint.

And yes I did get distracted and didn’t take my final photos of venom today. But I’ll get on that ASAP...

Venom day 3

I completed venom today. I’ll upload the wips here for now and take some photos tomorrow when I work on the edit.

Hope you like, I added leds to the capsule and changed the green to red. This could possibly be carnage leaking, I also strengthened the red OSL on the body and decided to make him shiny.

I may still add slobber but I’m still contemplating this.

Ps this gas station also has no milk I’m trying another,

Your dad.

Venom update.

I’m not sure if daily is going to irritate people. Let me know if it does. But as promised here is your exclusive look at the wips of venom from zez studios.

I have decided to go with a comic influence, much like the rest of my work and I made blue venom. But to contrast that blue I changed the green goo to red. Now it could possibly be carnage leaking from the capsule thing, the carnage bit was hicontrast’s idea but not the red colour. He only thought of that because I mentioned r...

WIP ⚠️ venom

Hey my dudes!!! So I am testing again on socials and this week I’m not going to post the wips on my stories. Instead I’ll dump them here for a change and you guys will get to see the WIP process before anyone else. And I’ll watch to see how this affects the channel. Hope you guys like it and please leave your thoughts in the comments.

First look at complete hulk

Here’s the photos I’m gonna send to zez for promo. I figured I’ll post them to you guys first before anyone else on the internet gets to see them. Also I will be trying to make a simple “ish” video about leds for patreon, perhaps next week as this last week and this week have been pure crazy. I made hulk in 5 days that’s support print prep paint and video made. All because the convention on Saturday lost me a day of work and the model was down to the wire for being completed in ti...

Fire 🔥 painting

So I listened when everyone asked for their share of what they wanted to see with the magik statue. And one or two people asked about the fire painting. So I made that an extended video too.

Quarter scale print and paint in less than 12hrs?

I’m 5 hours into what could possibly be the silliest thing I have done for a while and I may regret my life choices. I have decided that in order to appease the YouTube algorithm I have to do the classic “ I did this time extensive job in less time than it takes to have a poo” video.

Anycubic sent me the m5s pro to have a little play with and that’s what got me over the first hurdle. Because as we know this statue printed on one machine is easily a day at best since it was 3 p...

Live stream

Hey dudes so I am going to be hitting the live button later on. I had to order some more paint I need for this models and they only going to deliver it around 3 (typical) so live stream is pushed back to 4pm for now. I realise not many people got to see the last post and so that does make me worry that many will miss the stream. Not sure what else to do as I wanted to stream for the patreons only, I will figure this out.


See ya later

Updated eye technique and extended face painting video

As I promised here is the extension of the video on YouTube.

Quite possibly the most comprehensive video I will do on face painting and it’s coming to patreon..!

I promised I would try to offer more to the patreons and I am going to deliver.

Firstly I’ve made a 37 min video on painting magiks face. (Extra videos are available from didnt f@£k off tier and up). In this video I will explain as much as I can in that video. Some things you may like to hear, there is no sped up footage in this video. I zoom in, I hide nothing, I cut parts where I’m just looking at it but I kept every single brush stroke in for you to see how I do it. Oh and did...

Magik.

Here’s how my print turned out. I printed her base in clear and the sword and flames. Will try to light these up too.

Last video of January

I will be making magik from Ca 3d studios for the last video of January and I wanted to ask you guys if there was anything you would like me to make a patreon only video, what I mean is a video that is still part of the usual process but instead of the faster YouTube style video I can spread out just that technique or tip for a fair explanation of the thing that’s happening.

I have some stuff to announce over the next couple days and I’m sure you guys are gonna love it.

Updates.

Hey guys it’s me,

I am finally slowly getting round to making the studio shop look more like a nerd space and less like my store room. It’s cost so much haha and I am not really good at spending money wisely, especially when it comes to making ridiculous toys! Speaking of which I have a primaris atv currently being built into an rc machine but that is waaaaay down the list of things to do!!


I figured I would try more harder to keep you guys updated a little ahead o...

I am busy painting storm from ca 3d studios for this weeks video. See the not so dangerous way in which I hung her cape. Also screw capes hahaha had some small issues with the print on this my m3 max is giving me some z axis banding or lines or whatever you wannna call them. Looks like I need to clean up my rails and grease them fresh sometime soon.

Super secret behind the scenes post.

Hey guys sorry for my abscence over here recently. With the shop opening and videos etc I’ve been up to my eyeballs in madness. But I’m slowly getting through the bulk of my work.

I’ll share some more info when I get a bit further with the concept but here’s little sneaky peak.
