My Latest..Welcome to the Freakshow!!

[Joe Hudson]

Here is my latest figure. It was inspired for my love of Batman and Knight Models came out with such a cool comic joker I just had to have a go at it! The figure and the HaHa!'s are stock and everything else is scratch built. I had originally started sculpting my own HaHa!'s but found these and said these look cool!

I took this to this past Atlanta show and was very surprised and pleased to have won a gold and Best Superhero/Villain award.

Everything was painted with my usual Vallejo's acrylics.

Thanks for looking,

Joe

Thanks guys! I thought I had posted this but must have forgotten so here's how I built it.

Here are some pictures of the backdrop. I sculpted it using both Sculpey and AVES. The leg of Harlequin was sculpted with all AVES.

For the backdrop I used a piece of styrene to sculpt it on. Well, here's a lesson to be learned. First Sculpey has to be baked and thus the styrene will melt/warp. Next, Sculpey will shrink and last it's very brittle. So when I went to glue it, it cracked and was hard to sand and correct so I WILL never use it again!! I was using it because it gave me more time to work with but I would have been better off with just doing smaller sections with the AVES.

Beautiful work man! Brilliant job!

I especially like Harly's leg; you made it very shapely. Well done. I could have sworn you snagged it from a kit.
