Looks great! Another great build up by you. Nice skin tones too.

monahan13

thanks guys!

yea i wanted to go with a actual GREEN color,, not so much the minty green color. i think the next kit i get im gonna do flesh tones with the purple bruisong look, just need to find another kit now!

The horizon or biliken Frankie would be a good choice if you can find them.

Truly great.  Inspires me to dig out my McVey and get busy.  What colors did you use for the skin tones?

hey gakenstein,

thanks alot!

Primed then did a light coat of off white, then a darker cream for shadows. then i added some mossy color green to the cream and went over the whole thing lightly, then i went in with mossy green plus a dash of red, for the shading, then pastels for detailed shading!

i think its a good recipe for a more green franky...more greener then like a minty green color. look forward to seeing you finished model!
