Masking... tedious work.
The body is done except for the utility belt and the two head sculpts. The base will get a tiny touch up and then sealed tomorrow.









Need to detail the utility belt...


Almost forgot, Wolverine is primed and ready for paint:

Would it be possible to identify the types of shelving throughout this room? Some great ideas here and I'm looking for creative solutions!

The glass ones are IKEA Detolf.
The tall bookcases are IKEA Billy.
The larger cubes are IKEA Besta.
The rectangular cubes are by Closetmaid.

Hope this helps!

The body and base are done and all that's left is the two head sculpts:

Super helpful. New collector here, so forgive the naive questions. I have a few PF statues coming that are between 13-17 inchse in depth. Everybody keeps recommending billy bookcases, but those appear to be only 11 inches deep. What am I not factoring in?

Sounds like you aren't factoring in other people's stupidity and misinformation. LOL it's tough to wade thru the crapola.

Billy's are for smaller statues like 1/6 scale due to that 11" depth. Besta is recommended for PFs. Check my pics, smaller scale in the Billy's, larger ones in the Bestas.

You're on the right path, keep investigating and good luck. Ask away.

Head sculpts in progress. I work from the inside out, so first I shoot the eyes with an off white and then do the mouths... then seal it, mask it and apply the base flesh tone. Tomorrow I'll do the shading and blending, seal it, let it cure overnight and then mask it off and paint the masks black.

Faces done. I'll let it sit overnight so I can mask it, then tomorrow I'll try to set a record for 4 of the smallest pieces of silly putty ever when I mask off the eyes.
