Hello,
I am farely new to modeling, howevever I love it, but I am ready to step my models up a level.
Right now I am working on a 1/8 scale Incredible Hulk figure from Polar Lights. I am using Mr Surfacer 1000 and superglue to fill in seems... then sand it down with a few different sand grits to get it really smooth.
The question I have is what is the best way to fill in seems and smooth the seem lines in the detailed parts of the model without losing detail... like the seem running through his hair... and the seems at the end of the fingertips, and also in areas like arm pits and such where it is hard to get the file to sand. I am trying to achieve a figure that will have no seems at all, and look like one piece.
Any help / tips would be appreciated.
one other question... Also, I am going to make a custom base / diorama for him to be standing on instead of the one that came with him... my question is.. is model railroad grass / dirt / water materials put on foam board.... the standard railroad modeling stuff.... going to look good and natural enough for my hulk to be standing on?
