Gothic Horror Sackheaded Killer Scarecrow
Here is my first sackhead of four. I haven't painted the other three yet, but this one was great fun to do and I am looking forward to it. Unlike most of the painters on this site, I don't enjoy painting groups of figures. I almost have to do one at a time to finish them. This figure, like my Security Trooper in Bio-suit (ID 19087) is from Westwind Productions. I like these alot, but integral bases have never done much for me. I cut away the portions of this one that over hung the GW round base I mounted it to and then used Durham's water putty to level it off. Durhams is alot like plaster but harder and more brittle. It's very light weight as well so I cannot recommend it for filling bases to stabilize them. As I mention in the commentary for my Security Trooper, price wise the figures from Westwood are a real bargain. I bought mine through Newwave and paid $5.40 US. I got them as part of a 30 piece lot so the shipping was fairly well offset. The price for the individual figure is less than two dollars. That made me very happy. I appriciate reasonably priced high quality figures. :) These are the first two figures I have posted in over a year of visiting this site and I hope that you like them. Your comments are welcome and appriciated.
