When I was a kid, E.T. was more a myth to me than an actual movie. It took years to finally see it while everybody else was already talking about it. I remember how impressed I was by that little creature, altough that scene with the agents coming to the house in those hazmat suits …
Today‘s miniature is Dana Barrett/Sigourney Weaver from Ghostbusters as possessed by Zuul. The miniature is again from Crooked Dice and there‘s not much to say about the excellent quality. I‘m fine with my paintjob although the face didn‘t turn out as I wish it to be, but at least I can see progress. I thinned …
To be honest, I don‘t really like „Scarface“. Of course I enjoyed finally watching that famous movie the first time, but it never got me hooked. In maybe 15 years I only saw it once again last year and was kinda bored. Yes, it‘s from 1983, maybe it‘s the pacing. On the other hand it …
The Tumbler really is an iconic movie car, isn’t it? When I watched Batman Begins for the first time I instantly fell in love with this new Batmobile. Altough I liked all the Batmobiles from the previous movies as well (and they had a completely different style), this one was a new take on what …
Today I painted the good, old, cat-loving ALF. The miniature is an old miniature from Four A, I think, but belongs now to L72 Miniatures. I enjoyed painting that somehow different model. Not much to say about it as it was a rather quick paintjob – oh, and almost no cleaning was necessary in the …
Next Ghostbusters based model is Slimer. The miniature is again from Crooked Dice and comes with the set of the ‘Paranormal Exterminators’. It actually doesn’t come with a base, so I chose to take a flight-base from GW. Finding a suitable flight-base was harder than I expected. Painting the “ugly little spud” as Ray called …
I went on with painting a miniature from Nolan’s Dark Knight-trilogy: Scarecrow. I acutally liked the way he portraied Jonathan Crane aka Scarecrow as a brilliant psychologist who went mad and threatens Batman but is not really the villain of the movie.The miniature is of course one of Knight Models old Batman miniatures and is …
Ever since I watched Batman The Animated Series as a kid I’ve been a big fan of the Dark Knight. While I was too young for Burton’s Batman movies when they’ve been released, Batman Forever was the first Batman movie that I saw. Even as a kid it felt somehow strange to me altough I …
The Ghostbusters are definitely a thing from my childhood which never let go of me. When I happened to stumble across the “Paranormal Exterminators 1” by Crooked Dice, it happened to me. Crooked Dice distributes a lot of characters, which are based on the movies of the 70s and 80s. All (?) without license, therefore …
