I use Humbrol enamels,they're more akin to airfix modelling, but they work well. I always found that the citadel paints restricted poseability? The joints tend to chip with that paint, but then I never thinned mine. A radiator's a good place to dry enamel paint, pretty quickly you can add another coat if needed. I'm interested in your decal work too, I'd like to get your thought...

Here's another quick custom. Kryptonian Life Suit Superman.

Just in time for this weekend, here's my additions to the Corps! A few are based on comic Green Lanterns, the rest are my creations. Special mentions go to Sodam Yat(2nd row left) Stel(back row 2nd right) & Varix, now an Alpha Lantern(2nd row right) The other non-official GL's need names & back stories, but I havn't came up with them yet! See what you think?

Hi, cheers for your comments on my customs,I've long been a fan of your work. I notice you use Citadel paints? Do you not find they are too thick? I started out using them, but changed to Humbrol Enamel tins. I find you maybe need a few coats, but the end result is more crisp.Saying that,some of the Citadel colours are just right. Thanks again.Gary

Thanks a lot. It's always annoyed me how the Marvel minis don't use the bigger scale, so the Iron Monger just needed the right coat of paint. I'm an FF fan & had a spare Deathstroke head, so he went from there. Thanks a lot, compliments from a master! You've inspired some of mine, so thank you. The Kryptonians came about while reading "World of New Krypton" as the costumes in it were similar to the X-Force Wolverine, so they did themselves really. The extra parts is just my stamp on them. Iron Monger was there, waiting to come out, he just needed a shove!

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Some easier than others. I've got a few more to post in this thread, see what you think of those?:biggrin: Thanks! Kristoff just popped into my head after reading FF. I'm workin on a 90's version, just waiting on the figure I need for parts(although I could post a photo using what I've got,see what you think?) Here's a few more of my customs. Thanks for all the feedback, see what you make of these. Some DC's again(only do obscure Marvel characters) This lot: 90's Kristoff Vernard.

I took your advice & rephotographed my customs & posted them in the custom thread. Hopefully they're an improvement. Thanks for your input, it's greatly appreciated.

Ha! Thanks. Just taking the advice I got earlier(hopefully) I wish I'd posted these sooner, never had the guts. I'm glad of the feedback though. Cheers for looking.

Tried to listen to advice from Bob Harris, so I've reposted the customs I've done in the past year. Mostly DC's, any queries,thoughts,let me know.
-
Thanks for the advice Bob, I'll get the hang of posting etc & photographs. As long as my rubbish photography doesn't detract from the minis. That was the reference I had for Rip, from the DC Encyclopedia. In continuity now he's a normal guy, but back in the 90's Dan Jurgens designed the Linear Men as time travellers, ravaged by multiple journeys through time, hence cyborg parts. The shoulders are Crimson Dynamo. The Red Norvell was a real labour of love for me, so thanks a lot!

Recently put up my first posts so feel free to give me feedback.

Not sure if I'm posting these the right way, but heres the last one I did. Hush Jason Todd: Multiple-Man,M.A.X Pilot,C3 Nightwing. Thanks a lot, I'm always impressed by your stuff, you're an inspiration! Please let me know your thoughts on my customs. Please make a Kang custom!!! :tongue: Ha! AA always say no plans for Kang, I don't know if I'd do him justice! Cheers! We're not all bad! Let me know your thoughts please, I'd appreciate feedback.:biggrin:

I'm Gary, all the way from Bonnie Dundee! I'm new to this forum malarky! I'm planning on posting the minis I've customised in the last year. Feel free to comment & whatever, but try not to be too critical! Like I said, this is new to me so be nice or show me something better! Generally, I try to do DC minimates, as each time I've done a Marvel character, they come out officially. I don't have the know-how or technical means to got down the digital printout route, so I have to get the figures closest to the look I'm after then add a little bit of work. They're not perfect, but I don't finish one until I'm happy with it & most of the customs I've done have had multiple revisions. All being well, I'll post this, then the photos, with a bit about how I came up with each. Thanks!
