Your Gonzo Replica Pictures

[antonydavanzo]

I used the same stuff that Terry used on his prototype to get that color. I hope I chose the right one cause it looks really good.

What I used was Delta Ceramcoat Acrylic Paint. The color I used is "Lisa Pink Rose Lisa Opaque". You can get it at any material shop or hobby shop. I got mine on sale for 98 cents! I also got some white for Animals teeth that I am planning on rebuilding later on.


When you pu it on, you might have to go over it again when the first layer dries. Due to the lip being material, it is best that you go over it again to get the full effect. I also thinned the paint a bit to give the color fading out towards the mouth to blend in a bit.

Amazing.......cheers for sharing this. The colour is spot on and i am glad ill be able to copy this! So how many times have you repositioned Gonzo MC? I bet you cant put him down

I don't remember how many time I repositioned his pupils. It is really hard to get them just right. I would change them, then go back later then change them again and again and so on. I had more of a hard time with the right pupil. The other one was just right and I went off of that one. But I think I finally got it dead on. What also made a differenace was cutting the fur around the eyelids and eyeballs. There was just too much and I know that MR factory did not do that much other than cut the fur and put it on. You kinda have to sculp it yourself to get the right look. I can say that I am finally done with him.


I will be working on Animal next, I am planning on changing his eyelid to where it will close all the way. That is going to be some BIG reconstruction. I also want to redo his teeth. I will be carving them out of foam and then hardening them in paint to keep them solid.

Wow.......are you tempted to make any into puppets?

Now when I look at my Muppets they seem like they are looking back! See what I mean?

No, I don't have a bunny, a chicken or any mosquitoes so stop asking! He he.

I would love to, but right now, I love being the Muppet doctor! LOL

I'm usually more of a lurker than a poster on these boards, but I finally got my Gonzo this week. Yes, the final solution with the nose is unfortunate, but he really looks great! I'm a satisfied custmoer, and have been very happy to add him alongside Kermit. (I don't have Animal yet, but this has made me want him even more).

Anyway, I thought I'd share some of the pictures I've taken of him so far. (I've really enjoyed seeing other people's pictures as I've been waiting on mine to arrive).

Here's Kermit helping Gonzo out of his box upon arrival (I admit I swiped the idea of taking a photo of him coming out of the box from others I've seen).

Sweet pics, drudo! I think the first one is my favorite!
One thing I think I'd like to do with mine is maybe move Gonzo's eyelids back ever so slightly.
