jboogie Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Sorry mates..been real busy with work, the holidays and a newborn these past couple of months.But I did manage to finish one for the New Year. Uatu The Watcher I was inpired by Boyd's and Lukes version of him and pretty much copied the same recipe with the 3" head and the 2.5" body.I used a skirt and cape from a LOTR Boromir.His cape was also combined with Mephistos for the flared look and the high collar.There was some apoxie scult, dremeling and a lot of sanding to make the pieces blend together.Decals were made for the face, chest and skirt.I can't hand paint worth a crap so I mainly use Tamiya spray paint for coloring. Cheers mates and Happy New Years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj87 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 really nice work, it is a shame we'll never get a properly proportioned Uatu, unless you chose to make one, like you did... of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban Saboteur Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 First of all, the Forge custom is really good mate, any chance you could share with us the recipe for him? It doesn't look like he'll be released as an official Mate any time soon. Any request on who to do next? I'd go with whatever your heart is interested in at the moment, it seems like you have a great talent for producing customs of figures/characters not yet released. I scanned through the X-Men characters yesterday, out of the 3 not made you've already done Forge. The other two were Banshee & Longshot. I'd like to see you do Baron Von Strucker, kinda like the ML version but obviously shrunken down to Minimate scale. Finally, very well done on your customs, I can only hope that when i eventually make a start on mine that if they look anything close to the same kind of quality i'll be pleased.

Unless that is the recipe for him and the character 'cable' was a typo? Please let me know, as I recently posted the Forge custom on facebook to show my friend and i'd really like to make this character at some point. Thanks for your time.

jboogie Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Kang The Conqueror is made from a painted minimate with decals for face, body and skirt and a clear decal for the legs.Modified Helmet is from a doombot. Bought a new Epson printer but the colors don't look as good and don't stick on the paper as well as my old Canon.So he's probably in for a redo.

dj87 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I see what you mean about the printer, but I do love the decals you made up boogie, especially the details on the face. cool Kang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
