Heinous Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I actually think the serious face from the animated cap America looks good on agent venom. Just needs not so nicely parted hair that he comes with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) Hey team. I have hated every Scarlet Witch Minimate that has come out. I have been thinking of how to modify her into one that I like but that lead me on google searches that reminded me how much I loved the Crossing Costumes. I have no painting skills and never understood how stickers work. Anyone have any suggestions for a quick kit bash to get closer to this: Here is my take on the this image of the Scarlet Witch. I used Electra's arms, Falcon's legs with some alteration to the tops of each, a black hip piece, Electra's belt, Belinda's torso, not sure who's head but I think it is Phoenix/Jean Gray's hair and then two green energy blasts.

Zak Katz Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I thought you used the original Rulk's legs at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinceCuseCuse Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 So I'm looking to make a Udon Taskmaster. I'm using Casey Jones pieces for the base, but it's not complete yet. Anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 As a general rule, I don't buy pre-2008ish Minimates since the style is so different. I did manage to get a Nitro today since there's probably a zero percent chance of an update. He fits right in but that hairpiece has gotta go. Can anybody recommend a modern equivalent? I thought of one of the Thor pieces but I need the hair to hang over in the front too. Checked database but it only lists separate accessory hairpieces so I know I'm probably overlooking something. I will be painting it so it doesn't matter what color it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Wanted a slightly more classic Falcon, so I combined some parts from the wave 54 version and Falcon Cap (plus a few other assorted pieces) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyCrypts Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) Been putting together this as a little project for a few weeks. A multi level, kinda modular hall of armour for minimate releases of armors based on comics. I built a prototype of the two styles with pieces I had in hand and based on the SY hall of armour releases. I counted 25 minimates, armors that have been released multiple time (wave25, classic heroic age, bestof1) with slight variations in colour, (stealth ones are counted as separate armours) or brand new versions of the same armour (the 5 extremis armours). I picked my personal favourite of each armour as the one to be displayed. I also decided to include space for 5 other armours that I want displayed. (War machine 1+2, Iron Spider, rescue and iron patriot) This will leave 1 larger pod for any future release and a couple of normal pods for future releases like 2099 etc it can easily be expanded out or up with the right pieces. Will be spending the money in the near future to stock pile all the pieces to actually build it in the real world. Hope to have the hall of armour and a lab/workshop area built to display as many iron man minimates as possible.

Mystery Man Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Wanted a slightly more classic Falcon, so I combined some parts from the wave 54 version and Falcon Cap (plus a few other assorted pieces) Looks good for being from released parts only. Makes me long for a classic Kirby Falcon even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 It'll be a while before I can post pictures, but with finally finding a second Animated Starlord I've completed my Kitty Pryde, Star Lady custom. Laura Croft head and hair TWD Wave 5 Maggie chest block Movie Star-Lord Rocket Boots all the rest of the parts are from Animated Star-Lord I took your recipe and tweaked it a little for what I had on hand. I used a Lara Croft's head and hair, but I used Kobol Six's chest block, Animated Star-Lord's arms, jacket, hip & legs and I skipped the rocket boots because I like the look I had. Thank you for the recipe. I just did not have an extra Maggie Green to use her chest block and I felt the rocket boots did not really go well with animated Star-Lord's legs. But I would love to see your completed custom once you can share. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowlar Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I'm hoping I'll be able to post some pics on Friday along with War Mutant, Battle Beast Rat, and Cap-Wolf WIP. I've got the pictures ready it's just a matter of getting to an access point for my Windows 10 computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
