[RW3]

1/6 scale resin kit picked up at Wonderfest. hroughout the piece I've added small "easter eggs" relating to scenes from the movie "Jaws". The entire piece was painted with Vallejo's. Cheers!

 

[Iron Mike]

Excellent! I know someone who will really dig this!

Sometimes that shark, he looks right into ya. Right into your eyes. Y'know the thing about a shark, he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's

Man I love the original Jaws. Very nice.

BLOODY nice painting,water and subject

 

[sharkman]

:woohoo:


Oh, that is AWESOME!!!!!

Amazing work on the shark and everything else! I think you've really captured the countershading on the shark nicely! Love the additions as well!

Still the only good shark movie out there, even after 44 years!

Very well done!

p.s. I'm leaving tomorrow to try and tag a few of these guys. Hope we have better luck than Quint did!

I have to ask 1 question though, the little jaw on front, is that a real jaw from a little Atlantic Sharpnose or something?

 

[iambrb]

Wow that is really great! I really like how u got the light/dark portions of Quint’s shirt! Defensively one of Robert Shaw’s better roles!

“You know the thing about a Clownfish, Chief. He's got silly eyes, cartoon eyes, like Roger Rabbit's eyes. When he comes in on ya, he don' seem to be livin'. Sometimes the Clownfish, He goes away. Sometimes He wouldn’t go away. He tells that same old, horrible, campy joke, an' nen, (sigh) your eyes roll back in yer head, an you hear that awful groanin' and barfin', an nen, (sigh) Mr Clownie, he swims off without a care, like Will Farrell on a Thursdie night, without any idea of what humor really is. I’ll never go to a Comedy Club again.” (Text from TLAR Model's 1/350 Orca kit)

I LOVE this model!! Welcome aboard, Sir! The handbill and Fatal Voyage book just put the froth on the Mug!!
OUT-FUNKING-STANDING!!

 

[Steve Ski]

The splashing/frothy water was polyfil (material for stuffed animals) coated with Envirotex.

 

[RW3]

The jaw on front of the base was purchased at one of our local "tourist traps" that sells a variety of those as well as shells and such.
