Re Stickered Escape Armour

Post by The Kraken Wakes »

Quick pic to show one of my newly restickered Escape Armours with custom Red Laser. Also wanted to test out the pasting table I turned into two dio areas, its not quite finished yet but think it looks pretty good so far...

Still need to get a sky background for the sandpit so you cant see the bannister - can anyone advise where I can get one from?

Great work what head is that? He looks like the actor who played Dracula in Van Helsing.

The mailaway version rather than the ROC one I take it? It looks good with his hair tied back.

Very cool indeed. I'm loving what Cobra stickers is getting up to these days.

Also, I agree, that custom is superb.

Top stuff Matt, does the helmet fit at all?
As for the backround, how about a large sheet of balsa with some blue tissue paper covering it?

Very nice mate well done. As for the sky background what about getting a wallpaper sample from a diy shop? Its always free to take a piece to look at, at home :.
