Oh....my......gawd. :)This guy is not only an amazing artist, but he's a super nice gent as well. Offered to look at my 1/6th scale project and give me pointers if I was interested.
His work has an attention to detail and style that just melts my brain when I look at it. A friend said, Check this guy out. It will either inspire you greatly or will make you stop trying altogether! heheeheh I'm inspired for sure.
Check out the work here: (More samples below)

He's bashing some items that are big ticket items as well. $200+ dollar figures and $300+ vehicles. Part of me was shocked at the use of these figures, but seeing the results, it makes sense that this guy has no fear about the ruining of a figure - he's Master status for sure.
The weathering and detail is something I aspire to. I've taken a few passes at this to date, but nothing that comes close to these items. I'm not bashing myself for it - I just need more experience and practice. It's grand to see what could be. I'm eager to jump in and give it a go myself. ((And, happy that I didn't sell all my 1/6th scale figures in my last toy sell off! hehehehe
I think I might give a villain a go, then I'll jump back into my hover cycle project. I think think I'll go as rusted as Snow goes, but I'll definitely make things look worn.
