Hi,
I've recenlty updated my pictures of the Revenant, and Phantom titans I entered into the Epicomms contest a couple of years back. ?I'm much happier with the new pics.

Please take a look at:

If you have problesm, you can also check out the pictures directly at:

There is also my latest model (my L.E.D., battery powered fire prism) on the site, which I've entered in this years competition. ?

Any questions, and all feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
CF

Sigh - some people do brilliant work, with incredible paint jobs (the Phantom), stunning alterations (the Revenant cockpit) or models which is just amazing (lights on a Fire Prism!). Why do I only ever get to do the weird stuff? :p
Beautiful work, CF - is there a full Eldar army to go with these?  :cool:  :D  :D

LEDS are always good! :D  Neat conversions too, and the painting is excellent.

Can you provide any details about PVS putty?

Beautiful!

How long did it take for each model (conversions and painting)?  Just curious.

There will be a full army - it is assembled but not painted yet. ?There won't be any major conversions, and no more LEDs. ?Well, maybe one more... :;):

Can you provide any details about PVS putty?

Sure: PVS is poly vinyl siloxone (spelling?), a dental putty. ?It's the goop your dentist gets you to bite into when making a crown. ?It sets in 5 minutes, so you can make a bunch of molds and test them out quite quickly. ?However, it is expensive and not readilly available. ?RTV (room temperature vulcanizing) rubber is actually a better product for model making. ?RTV is cheaper, and easilly available from hobby shops.

Thanks,
CF

Beautiful!

For the Fire Prism, if I had to do it again from scratch it would probably take:
Drilling: 30 mins
Canopy and cockpit detail: 2-3 hours
Prism gun and electronics (including mold): 4-8 hours
Cockpit, engine and internal electronics: 2hours
Painting: (assuming your airbrush clogs all the time when doing the detail work) 4 hours?
Base: 4 hours?

So, say about 20 hours? ?It's very difficult to estimate. ?It took me much longer than this because I had to test lots of things (electronics, colors etc...).

I don't remember how long the phantom or revenant took, but they would take substantially less time than the fire prism.

Thanks,
CF
