Mars Attacks! Martian diorama work in progress update: The Victim!

This poor bastard lies sprawled across the base of the Moebius model kit, having been blasted in half by the Martian warrior who steps over his still shocked body.

I love old school, graphic Mars Attacks, not the horrible Tim Burton movie, and I wanted the victim to reflect the horror of the original card series. The original sculpt I found to be too cartoon-like for my liking, so I used Apoxie sculpt to add more details like the peeled edges of skin, torn edges of the ripped suit as well to adding more spilled guts.

I painted this using enamel and spray paints. I then used a mixture of Tamiya translucent red and smoke to create the blood on the guts and the asphalt. This combination of paints is my favorite to use for blood effects. If looks so good and has a natural gloss to it which really helps capture the wet look. I then coated the wet parts with a gloss coat to make it pop even more.

Sculpey, acrylics, wooden block 2017

I had the idea of a fleshy, veiny, pimple-covered block of ‘soap’ as the antithesis of soap used for cleaning. I wanted something that would make you feel uncomfortable to rub on your body. I was really happy with how the veins turned out. They really look like they go deep into the piece.

This is really fun to bring to parties and leave in the bathroom. :)

Chibi Predator digital model kit by the amazing Willy Kao. Painted by me using enamel paints. 

I had a lot of fun painting this. The details and quality of this figure are truly amazing! It is solid resin giving it a nice, solid little heft. I used tamiya translucent red mixed with smoke to get the blood on the skull and blades. I am very happy with how it turned out. It even has a natural gloss to it, making it look like a nice wet, freshly skinned look.

Figure is available through Kao’s Etsy shop: Digitalmodelkit

I have been on a MAJOR Mars Attacks! kick lately and here’s why:

To beat the mid-winter doldrums I am working on the Mars Attacks martian warrior model kit from Moebius. I got it a few years back and finally dug it out to use with my new airbrush. I am customizing the kit because I didn’t like the original pose. I also added more guts on the unfortunate victim to make it look not so cartoony.  I am also going to change to position of the figure, the head and the arms and make him carrying a martian flag!

More pics soon!
