Now… can you guess what the most time consuming part was? You got it!! I was dreading having to paint this guy from the moment I started. I knew there was a certain pattern to the spots and I tried to mimic that as best I could, so I painstakingly added each individual dot.
Head: McFarlane NBA Headcast
Body: Wire Armature
Hands: SF Remy
Feet: Resin cast blanks
Sculpt: Used Super Sculpey and Aves Apoxie
Pretty straight forward process. I started with the wire armature and added aluminum foil to help map out torso dimensions. I then began sculpting away.

The outrageous collars are made from blister packaging (cut to shape). For his microphone-staff I used this plastic straw I found in one of my miscellaneous bins. I have a bunch of them from somewhere (I don’t know) but it was a perfect fit. I simply sculpted the microphone end. And Ruby also comes with that pesky ‘Fire’ stone, made from sculpey and aves.
