That Brock is amazing dude, Push molds are my favorite tools! The tattoos are incredible for that scale aswell.

That Brock is pretty awesome. I think you did a superb job on the painting...especially with it being such a small scale. I do, however, find the painting on the eyes a bit off for some reason.
Shamrock looks awesome aswell. Your painting is clean and smooth.
Great job with both.

very nice job gonzo...i love it. you pulled it off well..i can't tell if it is the pictures or what but it looks like he is cross eyed or maybe like the pupils are too big. but other than that it looks great. putting all that detail on such a small figure must have been hard. great job though..
..and the shamrock looks amazing..it is very simple but it is executed so nicely. I love the painting on the shoes and the skintone looks great..there is some primer showing on the side inbetween the torso..but that is fine..good job.

Not really a fan of the Lesnar, reminds me of a round five figure and im not the biggest fan. The painting is really well done and so is the sculpt. I have no problems with Brock and your customising just dilike the style. Ken is brilliant. The knee pads and boots a make a simple figure, amazing. Really really nice work on Shamrock. Hopefully we might get a classic Shamrock in the UFC line like that. Well done.  Nice work. |

Nice work Gonzo, I really like that you tried something different with that Brock sculpt, it's neat.
Shamrock turned out nice as well, I really like the detail in the boots and the way you did the knee pads.
Keep up the good work.

great job gonzo they both look pretty damn good
the sculpting on brock looks good but brocks a little bit more fat than muscle and from the back his neck looks almost unexistant painitng looks good also but its kinda weird if i critisize a figure that is meant to be unreal
shamrock looks pretty simple (even though u put more work into this than other customizers on this board) nonetheless it is pulled off effectively
-----------------EDIT-----------------
i am interested in hearing or seeing how these push molds work

Ok, for those wanting to know about the push mold thing... here goes.  I took sculpey mold maker, made an impression in the mold with the front half of brock's head. I then baked the mold, and made several sculpey molds and one casted mold using epoxy resin. Far left of the pic is a sculpey mold where I sculpted the back half of the head on. 2nd head is the original bend ems head used for the mold impression. The 3rd head is just the front half of Brock's head from sculpey. The far right is an epoxy resin casting of the front half of brock's head. I will have to sculpt the back half of the heads, which to me is no problem. I used over half the box just trying to perfect the mold process. The 2nd half was used making a good Brock Bend Em's head mold, and a pretty good usable set of feet. I also made a crappy mold of the RA Brock head. I will be getting some more of the push mold stuff and make another mold of the RA head. Once I make the RA head I can enlarge it a bit and make it work better on a DA. This process is no where near as good as Warsman's molding and casting process, but works for my abilities and needs. |

That's really cool Gonzo, I dont know why I didn't ask you about this more before but it's interesting to see. I'm going to give it a shot some time.
