My Favorite Toy Challenge - s2-speedy
Okay im going to enter.
Funnily enough, i was clearing my loft / Attic out the other day and came accorss aload of old toys so have recently seen them and had a blast from the past. So im just saving my space and tempted to go with the ninja turtles...although not 100% sure yet. May change the toy yet...my sega mega drive was a favourite of mine, so was He-man, ghostbusters, mask, Manta Force...and aload more. But I think ill go with the turtles for now and maybe even the turtle van. Should be fun. Good Luck to all who enter. |

Cool, Looking forward to the competition, just like the old days.
Although I was around for the turtle toys, I was a bit too old for them myself. Although I preferred the Eastman & Laird comic version over the cartoon. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_o-v2tRqWXY...eter-print.jpg

Thanks Bullet, But I should be okay now. I collected a fair bit of reference in the week so might have enough. Ill let you know if I do later on though.
I've started the modelling now... began with the head. Pretty basic at the moe. |

Sandman - I aim to model the newer versions of the toys which were based more on the look of the comic turtles. I like the look of these alot better than the cartoon versions.
