Continuing on with the Marvel Universe Classics theme with another favorite of mine - Ka-Zar; Lord of the Savage Land!
I always thought old Kevin Plunder had it made. He's got a Sabretooth Tiger for a best friend and lives in a land chock full of dinosaurs, prehistoric mammals and cavemen. Every once in a while he pals around with the X-Men, Spidey, Daredevil and then he hooked up with Shanna the She-Devil! Oh yeah, he's also a millionaire. What a life!
I tried a new paint line while working on Ka-Zar; Reaper Paints. They were suggested to me by my friend Ratboy - a customizer of great talent. My usual method of mixing up a tan flesh tone paint wasn't cutting it this time around. Ka-Zar has a lotta flesh to paint and by the time I would get halfway done the paint would start seperating and changing in tone. Very frustrating. Then I remembered the advice of Ratboy and looked up the Reaper site. How nice to find a plethora of flesh tones to choose from! I used Reaper Tanned Skintone and I think it's got a very nice, natural look to it. I'm looking forward to adding more Reaper paints when I need to replace other colors.

Cool. I think you're predicting the future when Mattel acquires Marvel license after the current agreement with DC runs out in about 5 years. Since there's that Disney connection they have..
