Punisher Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Damn, bud, that's super cool! I really like his art style, and I knew it would translate well into a figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 Very nice Death Dealer Nervous. Those are some very nice parts. What was the recipie? I see Ares' boots, but other than that, the rest looks new. Customized parts? Hey Thanks guys, glad you like him. I was wondering if the paintjob was too "weathered" looking, and maybe go back and do a cleaner classic paintjob. Here is an unpainted look. -I used wasp's helmet, heavily modified with miliput. also the horns are miliput -The belt and loin cloth were sculpted, and little jewels were put in. -The axe was a mashup of ares' axe blade, a brown lego pole all smushed and scrathed up, and a cylon knife edge for the bottom -ares' boots -straps are miliput -cape is from a knight figure (I think from chronicles of narnia) -shoulder armor is from brickforge.com shoulder pauldrons diiferent from the ones in the picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyd Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Great job - a strong custom to come back to the boards with. Fantastic work with sculpting pieces. Personally, I like the weathering and metallic effects on the figure. It rare to see that much paint detail on a Minimate, and really helps him stand out.

Bob Harris Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Unfortunatelly I'm not familiar with Frazetta's stuff, but the details on that creepy guy are brilliant! Well done. That's how they might have sold more Lord of the Rings mates! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how they might have sold more Lord of the Rings mates! hey thanks everyone for the compliments! I had a lot of fun making this dude, and more frazzetta mates are in the works....hoipefully be done before next year Hey Bob, here is a death dealer gallery, and there are more galleries on the main page....the conan stuff is great! Death Dealer paintings I don't live too far from his museum, and got to see these suckers up close, and they are amazing in person. Thanks Boyd, I wanted to go buckwild with the painting on this. But... when I was done, I just hoped it wouldn't be mistaken for being too messy looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 Hey Gang, me again, with a custom of some sorts. a custom base anyway. This is a little stand for our little travelling buddy Frodo. It is made from an old mega bloks piece for the base, and some official, and custom made lego parts for flair. maybe this will get me back on track with customs again, I have had so many setbacks andreal world junk going on, and it is back and forth on whether or not I can even continue collecting, let alone customizing.I know, blah, blah, blah..... here is the picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBT! Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Nice work Josh, I've been pondering how to setup a few displays myself and this gives me some ideas. T. p.s. You do realise your Frodo has the wrong hair piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous Rex Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Wow, it has been awhile for a nervous update, I never thought i'd drop to the 6th page In the middle of doing some major stuff, I stopped to play around with some new mates, and parts. to my surprise, a pretty cool (IMO) quick custom started to develop. I'm calling this guy "The Crusader". Hope you enjoy :biggrin: This is 100% part swaps, with the only addition being the gold cross decal I've had laying around for ages. on another note, I have a handful of finished customs, and another handful that just need paint, and a third handful, or footfull, of stuff i just started working on with sculpting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous Rex Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hey , thanks Luke. I almost didn't put the decal on so it would be a true quick custom, but I think it finishes it on quite nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Wow, he looks really nice. Is he entirely an Arthur/ Movie Thor mash up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) Wow, he looks really nice. Is he entirely an Arthur/ Movie Thor mash up? Halfway there... Also the legs and torso from the new m v c stealth iron man , with the torso turned backwards. Head is from a halo dude, sword from LOTR and cross is from the palz line Glad you dig it! forgot the gloves are random black gloves, i forgot who they were from Edited August 22, 2011 by Nervous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyd Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Really nice Crusader. It looks so complete that it's hard to believe that he's made up of existing parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Nice! Where'd the sword come from? Thanks guys, I didn't know who arthur was, but I knew I wanted his armor, helmet, and shield Hey myte , I think the sword is from some LOTR mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hey Gang! I got a few quick customs, and a few kinda quick customs I'd like to show, before I fall into the third page again. I am also glad that my basic one custom a year trend is stopping pretty fast, as I have a whole bunch of stuff coming in the next weeks....but not all at once (more on that later) First is Hawkman, I have had this done since I got my second Angel mate, so its been laying around for some time, just didnt think it was worth posting by itself. I made little tabs that fit into the wings, and his back, so they can go on and off like the other ones. Next is Thor. until I get the new cape setup from the new Thor mates, this is my thrown together Thor I have been using in my (very small) display. Just bits of different Thor parts , and maybe a different face, not sure. Next is just a pic of some easy part swapping... It is kind of a "What if...?" I'm calling them the "Fear Foundation" more to come, as I make some new ones up.:tongue: Next, is another crusader custom. This one uses the gold Arthur armor, I painted in black, and went over with some "rub'n'nbuff" for the worn armor look. some random black legs, I believe a calico jack face, and some guy named Doom let me borrow his shirt. Cape is from movie loki i think. last, but not least is something I just did a few days ago. Head, and legs from ALICE, the arms from the MvC girl, the waistcloth from my parts box, lol, and the rest isn't too tough to figure out. As soon as I saw the ALICE legs, it made me want to make an Amy Brown (I think thats her name) inspired faerie. I'm calling her "Punk Faerie" well, I hope you enjoy, much more to come very, very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
