Custom Shot Glasses!!! (f1shcustoms)

F1sh1000 · 01-13-2010, 08:06 PM

Alright, sticking with the shot glass theme here is everyones most played out super hero? Maybe Villian...Deadpool! I figured he was a nice 2nd character because he always has that un-orthadox look on his face/mask so he would be a pretty cool Shotty!

Also you'll notice the layout has been changed from the previous Kratos pic. Because these are round its hard to capture all the detail in one picture, alot of the pics look weird because you can most times only see partial detail in one shot, so I re did the layout to be 3 shots, one of each angle to help viewers better capture the image of the Shot glass. Offcourse its always easier to look at it person than it is on film, so hopefully this captures the glass better.

I posted an updated layout of Kratos as well, so thankyou as always for looking!

I think this is a great idea/concept, and you executed it very nicely! Could you elaborate on your process? You do REALLY slick work, man!

Thanks alot superquad, I really appreciate the compliments...you always comment on my new stuff and I appreciate it buddy.

For the shot glasses I really paint them like I would anything else. I get a shot glass, I prime it with "Fusion for plastic" which also works for glass, and the color I Prime it is white. I than go over it with Gamesworkshop paints about 2-3 times to give it a saturated thick color. Once I complete the painting I use Valspar Glossy to seal the paint and give it a nice glass look.

Hello! This is our first "set" of shot glasses and its none other than the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! I tryed to give each turtle its own individual look using soley the eyes. With Leo I tryed to give his eyes a meaner, ready to fight look. Donatello has a slightly calmer look to him since he was always the brain of the team lol. Mikey offcourse has the odd eyes which I hope got across his goofy nature & Raphael has the meanest eyes....offcourse! Hope you like them Matt!

*As a quick note, if your interested in the status of your order, I always post a "status list" on my profile page of this site, but you can always PM me too.

Some other shot glasses on the horizon include Ezio from "Assassins Creed 2", ODST & Recon Armors from Halo, and Ghost from Modern Warfare 2 amongst others!

Thanks for looking everyone!

Here is our next character to be "SHOT GLASSED" and its the first done by my partner in crime aka Brother. He had a little different take on this one, Useing the full face of "GHOST" from Modern Warfare 2 and adding headphones and a mic to the shot glass. Always love to hear your thoughts

You're very welcome on the comments! I really try to comment on most of the threads I see, especially if they're not getting the feedback I think they should be!

Thanks for the insight on your process! Are you using some masks when you do the detailing work? I'm just curious as to how you get the detailing so clean on these lil' guys

F1sh1000 · 01-20-2010, 09:11 AM

Well thankyou, I certaintly appreciate it!

Not to throw my cover but im kinda new to painting, What exactly is a mask? lol
