That is the best looking Frank I've seen, and I'm counting Boris and Young Frakenstein. Mr. Green

Does Frank have throw teammate? Twisted Evil

I think he should! that's why he's training Laughing

The snotling is from BB range. I just cut the underpiece, then the leg and the foot fingers to stick on the hand. But that eats a bit of the index : /

The hardest part were the eyes and painting the hair. But i'm happy with the lining on the face. That gives him a more angry look.

For the colors, i wanted to have shiny color but with a passed out taste. I'm fed up of Undead only in dark or gey colours. But a friend of mine told me he was looking like Michael Jackson in Billie Jean! Laughing

Same danscing trick! Wink

Boris? Heresy or Karloff? Mr. Green

Louis: The more I look, the better he is, and he's just soooo far away from my painting style/technique...
Looking forward to a closer look and a chat, I'm sure I'm gonna learn something different...

Will you bring your zon's?!? ^^

I've made him for a clash against another painter. But they don't seem convinced :-/

The other question is: should i make him nails? they're not there but it seems good...?

Next on the list are my orcs, the new elves and my lizzards. Nearly nothing Wink

That kicks ass. Well done! Smile

Frankie is such a cool model too, I'm gonna have to hunt one down.

I told you i was doing a clash with another painter. The crowd decided that the other one was better... Confused

Here it is

So what do you think? I know the pic is bad and large. But i'm questionning myself now Rolling Eyes

@ Grasshopper: What do you mean? Wink

LouisX, yours is a lot more cartoonish, but is clearly the better paint job. He should have lost just for those silly crystals on the base. Rolling Eyes

Wow, I like several things about your model better(eyes, shoes, skin tone). I can't be sure what the judges were looking for, but you would have gotten my vote. The fingernails were the only area that I like the other better.

All that AND, at least you're giving a reason for that arm to be sticking out at 90 degrees. Smile

Tutenkharnage - Aug 12, 2003 - 11:45 AM

I think he's got you on the eyes (lack of pupils makes him look 'deader') and the fingernails. But that's it as far as I can see.

I think you should have painted him holding a guitar Smile

I agree on your idea but not totally Wink

Frank isn't a real undead (is he? :lo:) I think that giving him pupils gives him much more character.

But i agree it's about what people think of undeads. For them, they should be grim and grey with no color. I disagree with that. It's my point of view but they're BB players no ?!? Do you think thousands of people will go and see a team where all the players look the same?

Thanx all for your compliments Very Happy

i'm looking in your comments a way to improve that. But i must say i love the billie jean look! Laughing

Well for the full Billy Jean, you could shift his right hand a little more so he's actually grabbing himself. Mr. Green

Yes, and put some more zippers on the jacket.
