Puppet Master I'm working on. This is mostly at the point of just needing a paint job. I do need better control bars (had to look up the name for those) as the ones I made are a little flimsy. The black string on them should be replaced with black wire. Need a better table for him, also. Beyond that I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along.
Felt like doing a scrappy robot design based on junkrat
I'm like 70% done with the figure, I'm just missing the tire some caution lines stickers and I need to paint the head, minigun and foot.
Hope you're liking it so far.
Recipe is a bit long but if you ask I'll tell you the "ingredients".
Working on a custom built MCU-style Beta Ray Bill! Used the Love and Thunder Thor body to start, plus obviously parts from the Endgame wave Bill and the shoulder fur from the M’Baku BaF. I’ll be adding a fabric cape once it arrives in the mail and more color soon - just wanted to start with black and a metallic base for the armor. Not sure which Stormbreaker I’ll be using so considering both.
Also included a couple pictures of my other comic Bill I added a cape and more details to, with some other customs of mine. Not an expert, also colorblind so advice is welcome lol. Thank you!
Sinister 66 update
16 on the shelf and he has 6 still in plastic prisons
I found this in an antique shop in Pawtucket Rhode Island. Does anyone know who made it or where it comes from?
Just wanted to share these custom heads I made for my Marvel Legends Brand New Day Hulk. Been wanting a 2012 Avengers Hulk and this new Hulk body is perfect for it, I had to make these.
What do you guys think? Painting is not my forte but I think these came out pretty decent.
Hi guys, i just bought Mcfarlane Superboy Prime and currently im trying to find alternate fist hands that would fit for him since he only got open/flight hands only. Any suggestions?
So I was wondering, do y'all think it'd be a good base for a Custom Symbiote Spiderman? If so, how should I go about it?
Sculpted a bit more and painted a little to see how Spidey was looking. Gonna do a few more areas but think he’s looking much better. First pose is more or less how I intended to display him. Any feedback is appreciated!
Well...he's finally done. You'd think using Rattrap was easy, but Pikachu has a massive noggin that has absolutely nowhere to go so...as usual, I stuck with partsforming.
I'll be closing out this wave with Ridley from Metroid next! Then on to wave 07!
Wanting to put together a custom 1/12 Dexter, and I feel like paying someone to paint the head sculpt would be better than spending the time and money to do it myself. Anyone here interested, or does anyone have any recommendations?
After being my first ever attempt at a custom, here are my latest customs for motoko, I gave them a little bit of varied outfits in line with some in GITS in different medias and eras, I'm still improving my painting skills for the heads, Hopi I can get better soon, since I love Motoko. Any suggestions would be amazing!
I know he doesn’t wear a trench coat, but looks cool
My 3rd custom figure is complete! The paint was harder than I anticipated, but i am happy with how his head and overall look is 🙏 i hope you enjoy
Since I missed out on the made to order Apocalypse, I needed an Apocalypse with absolute presence to stand next to my Diamond Select Colossus. The standard X-Men '97 was too small, and the Select version was way too slim.
The Fix: Combined a completely repainted Diamond Select torso with the beefier X-Men '97 Retro arms and head. I bulked up the boots with custom foam, lengthened the blaster barrels, and widened the drill collar to fit his heavier frame.
The Jackpot: The slim Select arms fit perfectly onto the leftover Legends torso, so I walked away with two fully playable variants instead of a pile of scrap fodder! Swipe to see the surgery breakdown.
Got the alternate head and didn't know what to do with the other body, sooooo I experimented.
The original figure has really fun exaggerated proportions that sell the character of Catwoman, but I think I've managed to make it look like there is an actual human woman inside the costume with the battle damaged version. I didn't shrink her much though. I trimmed the ankles, wrists and drilled out the upper diaphragm ball socket which allowed the corset to sit further down on the diaper piece.
Anyway I love both figures and both looks. My only complaint is the new battle damaged Catwoman has a tackiness to the paint that makes the joints stick and leaves my fingers feeling tacky when I handle it. Not sure what they did different between the two as they look like the same paint jobs but it's very obvious in-hand.
