| Hoth Stormtrooper 4-up Hardcopy Paint Master (668-004) | |
| This 4-up represents one of the five poses of the Hoth Stirmtrooper
included in the Hoth Generator Attack playset. The micro figures were each sculpted at a 4:1
ratio, which makes prototypes for them large in size and very nice for display purposes.
The prototype shown above is cast in a green urethane, referred to as
dynacast, and is entirely hanpainted,
placing it in the catagory of
paintmaster. This 4-up was created using a
silicone mold
made directly from the original wax sculpt. This piece nicely compliments the unpainted 4-up seen
here.
This paint master surfaced from a find which was brokered by The Earth a few years ago. It included an impressive number of Micro Collection and 3 3/4" action figure hardcopies. |
