Mike,

Is there a tint in the sculpting material? Or have you painted spidey? The colouration is very subtle and very classy.

Yes I tint it. The Hulk also had a green tinge.

[Vader]

Just perfect.

[JadeGiant]

Just perfect.

perfect indeed! Are you going to get one of the Vader?

Mike, did you use any reference art for this?

No I didnt use any ref..I know these characters like the back of my hand. The whole reason is to do my take.

[Kirk Durfey]

Beautiful! I think I like this even more than I like the Hulk - Which is a lot!

Who's next?

[boondocksaint]

very cool

[krec99]

any chance of a kit ?

[Superboy76]

wondering the same... kit?

[JadeGiant]

that is so cool Mike ... to capture these characters so perfectly without reference is amazing!

[bane]

Amazing , Not a Spidey fan but this a stunning piece of work .

[hulkpitt]

Grate movement, it has that classic look like the hulk and lots of expression, I like the mask being pulled on with the camera swinging from the forward motion, it's a joy to see. I hope he will be joining the hulk on my shelf, any chance we can see a shot of them together?

Really impressed with this one.

[albeeman]

fine FINE ART!

Brilliant!!

Cheers my dears.

RE Spider-man. Although it looks roughly executed and more of a sketch,a lot of reasoning goes into my pieces.

Spidey is wearing a leotard made up of seperate pieces. So we can see where his glove starts on his forearm. Beneath the glove we see the bulk of the web cartridges. The lenses are set under the black frame around the eyes,not flush.

I even took into consideration that the camera strap would be beefier,moe durable than a normal one due to Spideys actions.

Its hard to get a lot of drama because of that mask,so I decided to add a lot of movement and a glimpse of neck to show there really is a person under that none revealing mask.

I also 'tried' to give the mask a 'face', a character,a wicked looking,sarcastic kind of look to go with Spideys nervous humour.

Ok...back to real life..hmm...what about Supermans curl? Will Woverines hair be flat when he removes his cowl....

:) :banghead:

[TOM S.]

THIS HAS PROBABLY THE MOST FLUID SENSE OF MOTION I'VE EVER SEEN (IN A BUST NO LESS)! REALLY IMPRESSIVE MIKE!

[Jack's Username]

This is just beautiful work, Mike. What an awesome piece.
