For a brief moment, I considered making him anatomically correct, but then decided to make him modestly androgynous. I really had quite a few logistical problems making this work, and he's not perfect, but in the end I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. The feet, legs, and arse, as well as the lower hands, were dirtied up with a mixture of red, brown, and black to emulate the infertile red soil of Barsoom's dying surface. As a final touch, I mixed metallic gold and copper and did a very light drybrush over much of the skin. I then drybrushed a mixture of white, flesh, and a dab of metallic copper. I then applied a layer of red, flesh, and metallic copper mixed together (with a dab of white) to give a fleshy, pinkish undercoat. After I primed, the first coat was metallic black and brown. I think he looks okay, though, even if the neck is pretty limited in how high it allows the chin to look. I didn't really have adequate fodder to add an ab crunch, and to be honest I was also too lazy to attempt such a major change this late in the game. Rather than try to save the articulation, which was pretty much useless, I decided to sculpt over it and give the torso more of a natural flow. I also took the suggestion that the mid ab joint on the lower Hulk torso could use to be altered. So, I built up the musculature to be bulkier than the upper set of arms. It was suggested to me on the Fwoosh that the forearms on the lower set of arms could be more developed, since the lower set of hands would probably be used in much the same way as a gorilla would use them.
#Barsoom white ape series
As you know, this custom is composed of two ML Series 1 Hulks, and about a thousand pounds of epoxy putty. I had Thursday and Friday off from work this week, so I decided to put them to good use. John Carter hits theaters March 9th, 2012.First off, I want to thank everyone for the feedback in the Slab. In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands. The film tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet, including Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe) and the captivating Princess Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). “John Carter” is based on a classic novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, whose highly imaginative adventures served as inspiration for many filmmakers, both past and present. There is another trailer completed and coming soon, but for now check out the first tease below.īased of Edgar Rice Burroughs‘ work, the action adventure stars Taylor Kitsch, Lynn Collins, Samantha Morton, Mark Strong, Ciaran Hinds, Dominic West, James Purefoy, Daryl Sabara, Polly Walker, Bryan Cranston, Thomas Hayden Church and Willem Dafoe.įrom Academy Award(R)-winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton comes “John Carter”–a sweeping action-adventure set on the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars). He won’t reveal how Carter will escape, but the huge creature that has a great sense of smell can’t see, so there is some advantage there. In the action scene, Stanton describes that Kitsch is imprisoned and needs to escape while being chained up and being chased by this massie white ape. They are beginning to unveil this alien world though, and we have our first look at a monster via Entertainment Weekly, which can be seen above.
But I was excited for his scope and was glad that Disney seemed to be hiding many of the surprises for the feature film. We saw the first trailer for Pixar director Andrew Stanton‘s first live-action adventure, John Carter, debut to mixed response. I wonder how Taylor Kitsch will get out of this one.
