Into the stripper

[alkalilake]

After seeing all the talent by Melanie on her elder mask and her latest suit, I was looking at my Predator bust by Howard Senft and motivated to tear it down and start it over. He's finding a home in a 5 gallon bucket of Simple green to strip him of the wretched old paint. My first paint of a 1/1 Predator and I just could'nt live with it any more. Anybody else get like this when looking at old stuff they paint? He'll be way better next time around.

If I were you, I'd keep that mask as it is and start on a different one. The reason I say this is because I think it is important to see the evolution of your painting skills through your past projects. I tossed a bunch of my pre-70's artwork because I though it looked bad. I really regret doing that.

Although, I suppose as long as you have nice photos and records from your paint job, it would be okay to white-wash the canvas.

Good luck on the project!!

We can rebuild him, we have the technology. Better than he was before. Better. Stronger. Faster.

Artwork from the pre 70s? Good lord man I wasn't even born till 1980 Sorry Dave I had to it was just to hard to resist!

I agree tho on the save it and repaint another. It looks really good as is but use as a template for your next one!

Ya, Chris.

I had originally kept a lot of my art that I did when I was still in Kingergarden and Elemetary school. But then I tossed a lot of it when I got to Junior High age. AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!!
