Sorry I took so long to respond.
Digits, Kruzr, and Kathy, I thank you greatly for the compliments.
Kruzr, a vinyl model is just that, a pre-formed, multi-piece model made from a vinyl material. There is always a bunch of flash on the pieces, so they have to be heated up a little and trimmed, then glued together, primed, and then painted with whatever one chooses to use. I like Liquitex acrylic paints, they are easy to thin and combine to make any color I need. They also adapt well to different techniques, such as airbrushing, dry-brushing, and color washes. Then everything has to be clear-coated to keep the paint from chipping off.
Vinyl models are able to retain a pretty decent amount of detail and are easily modified to make whatever you want from them, though, since this was my first one, I didn’t change anything on it except for the paint scheme for the Green Goblin, and a little creative engineering on his flying vehicle to make it retain its shape, as well as support his weight and hold him semi-vertical(think coat-hanger support). I made his outfit a little darker than what it’s always been depicted in the comic books because I thought it made him appear more sinister.
I have a bunch more vinyl, plastic, and mostly resin model kits that will probably never be completed, because I would rather just sculpt my own now from scratch, instead of re-working other artists’ work, that is, when I have the time to do physical artwork. Too busy trying to find work lately. I’ll post one of mine sometime soon.
Thnks again, Gang!
