You've inspired me to do some more old-fashioned scratchbuilding, Astra... and to repaint my awful DST Alfred. Here's a before-and-after:

Welcome to the Batcave, Alfred.

If you can just walk into a shop in Dresden and get scanned, why doesn't DST have access to such technology? Your figure is the only one in that diorama that looks like a human being:

Oooooh, nice! Always happy to inspire others. I love your eyebrows, very naturally fuzzy looking. Did you do something to the eyes as well? They look different. I really don't know what they were thinking in giving him this harsh brown-grey cut. From far away it looks like a military buzz. Here is mine from close-up:

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! That is awesome! You HAVE to send that to Sean on Twitter. Seriously. He'll love it!
He often likes and sometimes even comments on my pics. Here are the two recent ones:

A Butler's work is never done: https://twitter.com/seanpertwee/stat...84055357685760

Genius: https://twitter.com/seanpertwee/stat...78265949900800

What scale is that Turtles playset actually? You make me still eye it with all your wonderful pictures but I hesitate as I think the original Turtles figures are smaller? How do Alfred and Batman work in the tunnels?

That's my bad photographing skills I'm afraid. I had trouble with the lighting with this set. With daylight from the window the shadows were too harsh and the faces washed out, but with closed curtains the automatic focussing in the darkness difficult (unless you refer to real figures you also own?)

And as for my own figure, on close inspection it would not look as good. The face is printed very blurry, very difficult to get a good focussed picture. The surface is rough not smooth. The glasses also were way too thick, I made my own from thin wire. Plus making these figures is quite expensive, 150-200 Euros per figure depending on extras.

PS: Looking at your blog I just realized that your Tekering name has been developed the same way like my Astra name ;)

LOL I love my new nickname!
Yeah, Big Boss man will be Bad Gotham Cop in my pictures. I'd like to give him the right badges and colors but I don't know where to find good reference pics.

Aw, that's a nice story, thank you

Thank you ;) I made these two years ago already. I love the raggedy Doctor as a drunk man! That figure fits so well!

Mulder has arrived but now he is waiting for Scully.

Just three men with hats drinking beer.
This is a thing for barbecues that has salt, pepper, mustard and ketchup bottles in it. My brother gave it to me.

Lol Monte. Your bravery in playing with little plastic men in public is commendable.

And please stop posting pics of that sweet Ultra Magnus. I’m trying to pay off my credit here!

Monte Williams 09-26-2018 05:57 AM

Thanks, Thor!

Bruce and Alfred enjoy the last day of Summer at the beach of Gotham. These pictures were taken at the banks of the river Elbe in Dresden.
