    @nazroth had a guide just taking a Coca-Cola bottle, cutting pieces of it, painting that then gluing it to the hacker's hand, this seems like a more elaborated version of the same thing, looks like a basic clear support shape, then carefully cut shapes of colored plastic glued on top of it. Nazroth's more advanced guide using a bit of brass mesh is here, i feel like you could combine the two (use the brass mesh as the support part, then glue the rectangles and shapes on it)
    I understand why it fell from favor but damn, i do wish people put holos in all their hackers, it's way too cool :sunglasses:

    I cut up some pieces of old blister packages and on those I glued pieces of colour filter foils I got as a gift from a friend who worked as a lighting technician in a theatre.

    I just realized that with Uhahu I finished the whole aftermath box!
    So naturally here's all of them together :hugging_face:

    I guess you'll enjoy all of them, even the siocast Ishinomori :D
    They're perfect to just go wild with paint schemes and techniques.

    That said I recently fulfilled a sidequest:

    I painted this Amazon warrioress as a gift for a friend and again used predominantly my Zorn pallette colours, and the alcohol based gold paint from vallejo for the first time. Another fun experience!

    Very cool, and a beautiful model. Where is she from?

    Thanks guys! :grinning:
    Yes, she's from Freebooter's Fate. I guess she came in a Special Edition Kickstarter Collectors box, that's why I was only able to find her background once but then forgot it and also where I found the info :sweat_smile:

    Found her whereabouts!
    She's part of a freebooter's fate chess set, her name is Teoyotica (nahuatl: spirituality) and acts as the Alliance Bishop on the chess board!

    An how did you like the alcohol-based metallics? How did they handle?

    Quite good, they flow way easier over the model so there is a need to be cautious. But at least the gold covers the surface better than the golds I still own. Unfortunately the alcohol based paint doesn't mix well with the normal, water based, paints as I found out whilst trying to mix it with silver (something I could've had anticipated but forgot exactly in that moment of mixing) :sweat_smile:

    Do you remember by finished Aftermath Gang? Well, just about a week ago I had the spontaneous idea to come back from my summer break by building them kind of a home, or a whatever comes close to that... :sweat_smile:
    Thus I took my hot wire cutter and made a little piece to display them:

    Thanks, man! The fence was really a hassle to glue on the frame skewers.


    On another account:

    Thanks to customeeple I'm now the proud owner of cybermask silhouettes for Uhahu (Aftermath) and my custom built Prowler Killerhacker!

    Also I got one made for my Al Hawwa Killerhacker (yes, I decided to get that despite StarCo's very probable disapperance in N5)
