Avalanche
Well once again, I thought this guy was going to be a piece of cake. Well then I went and screwed that pooch and decided to use a new chrome paint that ended up giving a great finish but was a total pain in the ass to get right!
Avalanche is made from a Marvel Universe Omega Red head and hands, and a Hercules body, arms and legs. Every bit of armor was sculpted and sanded, then sanded some more, then sanded a little bit more to give an ultra smooth finish. Which leads me to the pain in the ass part. While the chrome paint went on easy enough (airbrush), any tiny blemish, bump or scratch shows up like a zit on prom night. I lost count on how many times I painted him up, found ugly spot, sanded it down, and repainted. But in the end I think it was worth it! And now I know, and knowing is 8.7% of the battle. I'm pretty sure that's how that saying goes.
Thank you for looking and if you have any questions, hit me up in the comments below!
