Post Daily Customs- Day # 2 A Visitor from Outer Space
Well, yesterday's figure went over fairly well. Here's todays:

The Visitor. First time painting a Space Barbarian, or whatever they're called. I really didn't know how this was going to come out. I decided to try for a bit of a 1950's "Teenagers From Outer Space" look to the body.
I think the simple look to it is a good contrast to the head under the helmet, which I wanted to look very colorful and vibrant. It's a shame that the Barbarian head is usually hidden, because its really an awesome sculpt.


Thanks for looking. Comments and feedback are always welcome.

Phil

The helmet & suit do have the "classic" look, but +1 on keeping the helmet off. The face is too rad to stay hidden.

I feel like the suit could be punched up just a bit, but I LOVE the head. Nice one!
