Painting Selenites

In the movie there is a Selenite called the Grand Lunar who is in charge.  He has a bigger head.  So I decided to cut the head off of a praying mantis and another one from a larger cricket and use them as the basis for a Grand Lunar and a Lessor Lunar.
I wanted a sticker glue so I got some of this E6000 premium.
It seemed to work better in a big glop on the soft plastic figures and based.
Here everyone is on their base ready for painting.
I did not prime them because I am using spray lacquer and it seems better without it. 
I paint one side.
Then flip them and do the other side.
In this case standing up.  Note the Grand Lunar with the big antennas and the impressive staff.  And the Lessor Lunar with the thick antennas and almost as nice staff.  Red figure has the praying mantis head and the black has the other bigger cricket head.
