Bob Harris Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 That Giant Man is outstanding. The facial expression is perfect. DST couldn't do a better job. Although I'm not a big fan of the character this is one of my favorite customs of yours so far. Amazing job! And a question: In lack of knowledge on Resident Evil, the guy on the right in the background: Where does the holster come from and did you just glue it on (I guess Movie Logan's) vest?

Rad Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I already commented on these on your FB Luke, but it deserves saying twice. The Doctor Who customs are just incredible. You've made one slight error with Davros though. His left arm is useless and always tucked by his side. I can send you a pic if needed. It's still a fantastic custom. I'm looking forward to seeing how you made the chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct that it is Movie Logan's vest. The holster was on a belt that I had in my parts bin. I'm not sure which minimate the belt came from. Anyone else know?

Yeah, I wasn't sure what to do about that arm. There is a little bit of room directly in front of Davros's torso where the forearm could sit, but minimates aren't articulated enough for me to do that. Maybe I should add a mid-bicep swivel joint?

karamazov80 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Did Customizer ever describe his secret to the Minimate swivel-arm figures he made, Luke? We didn't get an answer here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could alway measure the distance from shoulder to chair base and just remove that section of the arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I rarely have complaints about your customs, and I'm not the most avid gamer, but didn't Barry have a beard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 I rarely have complaints about your customs, and I'm not the most avid gamer, but didn't Barry have a beard? From the pictures I could find, he has more of a thick stubble, so I just added that to the decal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Simply amazing. Hasbro should take note of how cool this looks and give DST a call (and a contract). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Simply amazing. Hasbro should take note of how cool this looks and give DST a call (and a contract). Sadly, they're more likely to call with cease and desist order. Darn fine work though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 And would the beautiful custom be available in the decals section? or am I going to have to beg and plead and then fight to be able to buy it off of you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINI_MYTE Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Sweet Jesus! That's one hell of a good lookin' Baroness Luke! Although I'm not a fan of that particular minimate hairpiece, it SO works with your custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinchicken Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 That is incredible! I am a huge G.I. Joe fan and would love to be able to get ahold of some decals for that Baroness or any other Joes and Cobras. *hint hint* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 A little of everything! The Hood Inspired by Bob Harris's excellent custom. The only thing I changed was using decals for the face and chest. Zodiac Courtroom Peter body with a decal for the head. The chain around his neck is from an old necklace. Blue Devil Sculped horns and beard, modified New X-Men Cyclops chest piece, modified Ocean Master weapon, Bucky boots, decals for face and chest.

MiniFiend UK Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Great work as always. I'm surprised no official figure of The Hood as yet seen as it can be done well as proven by Bob and yourself with existing minimate parts. So it wouldn't cost on new sculpts etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I sent a PM to Luke some while ago which basically said that I would no longer be commenting in this thread because I had run out of superlatives ........nothing much has changed ......just breathtaking!
