Hey everyone, today I have a figure that should have been posted a whiiiile ago... A recreated old articulation ODST!
This guy was a commission for @priced_limited, wanted a faithful recreation of one of the old articulation odsts for new art. And I have to say this was a pretty fun figure to make.
Despite how badly worn mine is, I was able to get the camo patterns pretty much spot on thanks to references from others, special thanks to @motionsdomain for the references! Old art ODST’s definitely aren’t the most complicated of figures to paint, but parts can still be tricky like the camo. Especially when you have to paint lighter colors on top of black, that’s never that fun. Anyways… I also used the beautiful ODST helmet made by @ls3d_printing! Always a blast painting them, the details are so crisp. I don’t really have much else to say besides that thousand suns blue sucks and I finally figured out photos I think. I was able to make a truly black background which I like thanks to tonedawg paints help. Completely random but I’m watching demarcations space marine review while making this post lol. Wait does anyone actually read through these shpeals? Either way thanks for checking out the figure!
