Haha...too kind, but I'm still on a long road to where those ACBA guys are. Love to learn from them, however.

It's a great figure for custom work, at that head looks so much like the 80s Hama Scarlett to me - it was an easy pick.

Wow..thanks! High praise! She was one of the reasons I made my backlit 'cottonball wall', along with Gadriel from the Mythic Legions:

See this is why it is great to see these projects. I never in million year would have thought the backdrop was backlit cotton balls. Incredible. I'm probably just jaded by all the CGI magic we have nowadays. Sometimes the old ways are great.

Totally agree! Sometimes the practical backdrops just have that tangible quality you can't get from digital (or at least not unless you're a real ninja with the software and technique).
Here is a behind the scenes look at the set up:
It's just a cardboard frame with clear packing tape stretched across it. about 4 bags of jumbo cottonballs that have been teased out a bit are just stuck to the tape. Some secondary layers of cottonballs have been built up by spraying the first layer with spray adhesive, then layering on the second round of cottoballs. Once done, you just backlight the wall with any spotlights or floods you like for effect. Hope it helps and others perhaps give it a try themselves...it's a cheap, effective way to get some really fun scenes!
