The Dreamer - WIP

Got a couple of WIP pictures of the The Dreamer, my crew Master. He's the little boy dreaming up all the madness in the crew!

 

Need to finish off the base and tidy things up a bit.

Painting Teddy.... Nearly There!

Ok, said I'd post more progress pictures of Teddy. He's nearly done, just a few last bits to do but I think it's very clear what the intention is with it all now at least

 

 Yes, "NOM" seemed the obvious choice with the blocks!

Painting Teddy

Been thinking a lot about how I'm going to paint Teddy. Had a few ideas. The first one I had was the 'obvious' choice of like a Care Bear. And in particular, Grumpy Bear.

He already seems nearly grumpy enough to turn into a psycho killing machine... but, a giant blue bear, whilst hillarious would be a bit of an eye sore...

Last week I discussed with a friend about making a teddy bear for the base so I've decided that his base is going to have a prone bear that he's savaged. This led me down the train of thought of Forever Friends for the irony but the bears for that are just plain boring and then I thought of the Tatty Bears. They're always on cards and stuff, I know my last few valentines cards from the Mrs have had the Tatty Bears on, so it just seemed right that such an image of sentiment be debased into a manically grinning, gore-smeared bear.... I also really like the contrast of the bright red with the greys and pale blue so seeing as Teddy has a heart shaped belly...

So I've started making a bear for the base out of green stuff and have made a couple of patches for Teddy too just to make him look a little more beat up. He's all ready to paint now so should be WIP pictures soon!
