TBT! Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Great stuff as always Antacost & Welcome back! I know how you feel about the pic of Ultron, It's always tricky to show metallic effects in photo's esp on something that small. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 Thanks guys. It feels good to be making figures again... I don't feel like such a slacker if I'm making "art"... Back today with four new figures that took me way too long to finish... They're all in the DC section in this sinister shade of yellow. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.

antacost Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 I've got a new figure today. It's on the first page in this spirited shade of blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Love the floating tie. Are the jacket, collar, and tie all one piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 Thanks Shamrock. The tie and collar are a seperate piece that goes over the neckpost and is held down by the jacket... I like the way it turned out. I didn't want to just paint on a tie, and this worked out nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 Hello everyone. Finished just in time for the Indie-Mate contest, I have my entry... Clownface from Jason Pearson's Body Bags. As always, he's in the first post, and in this bloody shade of red... There are tons of pictures of the WIP in my Flickr account, if you're interested: http://www.flickr.com/photos/59231446@N00/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombieboyfiend Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Dude! Clownface is awesome but I have one question. How the heck did you make a zipper that small? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jatta Pake Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Major thread necro, but Slythe's return got me wondering about other members who used to customize. antacost was a prolific minimates customizer back in the day. Anyone heard from him lately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are other members who have drifted away overtime (understandabe as with any hobby) and it would be nice to have a "where are they now" thread. Certainly as with talented customizers such as antacost, newer members and customizers may find inspiration in the work. about 6 weeks ago i p.m. him about his custom cloud and blade minimates and if he still had the decals,nicely he told me he had lost them with a hard drive crash i was bummed but the was the first and last time i chatted with him.I would love to se some more customs off him he is a damb good artist Glad to know eclipse! It's amazing how close to the production versions many of antacost's customs turned out to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minijeff Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I know I have some great pieces from antacost and would love to see what he is up to these days Jeff of the Miniacs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombieboyfiend Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I heard he is down in his basement looking like Howard Hughes cooking up the biggest thing to hit minimates since c3 feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Dang. A guy goes away for a couple of years, and now I'm Howard Hughes... Pretty close, actually. Down in the basement working on something... Pretty sure it's not the biggest thing since the C3 foot though... I get on here maybe once a month or so. Really burnt out on Minimates when the started doing all of the movie stuff. Don't get me wrong. I still love the little blocks. I've even started rebuying some here and there. Definately not as many as I used to. Just the one's that strike my fancy.. I haven't done a whole lot of custom Minimates for awhile. Burnt out. I've been working on a set of figures for myself for the last year and a half. Pretty slow going... Although, I was "talked into" making some new figures for one of our members. Still working on them, I promise. I've got a kid now, and he takes alot out of me. My late night customizing sessions usually end up with me asleep in the chair at my work table. I will have an update "soon"? Hopefully... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Great to see you're still amongst the living Antacost! I for one, have really missed seeing your custom work. Much like yourself, I find it hard to find time to customize these days. I can't wait to see what you've got cooking up your sleeve for your next custom. Welcome back sir!

Glad to see pop back in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
