Thanks guys! I'm liking the way the Pipbuck came out in the end. Looking forward to painting on more detail for it.

Just redid the head for the new body and started on the hair, but staring that thing has driven my brain to near melting status. So, the next update will come tomorrow. got the day off so should be able to get a lot done.

Thanks again guys, your all awesome!

Well that's Blackjack pretty much done and dusted, now to start work on Glory! I think the wing draped over Blackjack will be the hardest thing to do with this one. Hope I can pull it off, but only one way to find out!

And here this link for the up to date figure http://mcmesser.deviantart.com/gallery/32456184

Blackjack's looking much better now, great job. Are you going to make them one solid piece or separable?

Thank you!

They will be separate, but able to put over each other to make one. Like my Velvet and Calamity, but a bit bigger.

I was going to start work on Glory but no, my evil cat decided to jump up onto my table and knock over and nearly stand on Blackjack. I've never moved my cat so fast to save it. Even got a few more cat scratches from it. But I'm now doing a little repair job, fixing the horn, reattaching the head and tail and other things. So I think Glory will have to wait till a couple of day's, should be able to do some work on her maybe Friday but Saturday is free, so will get her started then.

Don't have a picture up yet, but I just got finished with the repair and she is fine. Now with a slightly thicker horn. Will post up some pictures some time soon.

Oh and the cat's fine, been punished and now no longer allowed in my room when I'm working on these figures. My arm on the other hand now has a few cuts where the cat dug her claws into my arm... Ouch.

Okay people, I need some advice here. What do you think I should do for Blakcjack's body? Options are 1) leave her "nekkid" with just her white coat showing 2) do her in a Stable jumpsuit, 3) her armoured security barding or 4) some kind of undershirt like thing.

I'm not too sure at the moment, hence the question. So tell me what you fine fine people think!

Well, it's supposed to be a relaxed pose, right? In that case, any accessories or outfits would distract from it in my opinion.

My only concern was all that white, but I was forgetting that she would have glory's wing draped over her so that would take away from a lot of the white. Something to think about at least.

Thanks guys.
