Nervous Rex Posted December 30, 2006 Author Share Posted December 30, 2006 Ok, this was a completely random and spur of the moment custom...using my old Angel custom, with the new sentry head, I saw the new superhero squad? Angel/Colossus 2-pack, and , well, uh, this just had to be done.(I was never happy with the pocket hero Hawkman wings for him) hope you like I'd like these for "Wings of Redemption Spawn" too, and a "Redeemer" I did the old boil and pop method to get them off, then just drilled through the back of the body using a 5/32 bit, and the peg slid right in.

"It was so easy, a caveman could do it!" it really only took a few minutes, from the time I popped him out of the pot of water, and let him cool off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing.JL Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Innovative as always Nervous, Awesome awesome Angel with the new wings.

I don't think that you'd have to sharpen them at all. The wings already have a nice angular sculpt on them. Slap some silver paint on 'em and go!

TBT! Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hey Nervous, Were the wings glued and did boiling loosen the glue? Min seem glued on and dont look like they will budge. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 First off, everyone steal away! It is really a fairy easy process. if you want I can post some pics of how they look when they come off, and the hole i put in his back to connect them. Hey Timbo, yeah they were glued on, and the boiling loosened up the glue. I used a butter knine to get in to dig it out. The only thing I'd say is to make sure you get them back into shape(or the shape you want them in) before they cool, because they get very bendy. I opted to keep them straight, but I might try to curl them in a bit the next time. I agree with antacost, they are already pretty sharp looking, and some silver paint might be all you need.

Nervous Rex Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share Posted January 23, 2007 Hey guys/gals- Well I finally have had some time to do a bunch of customs(looking for a new job), so in the spirit of last week's reveals, I want to do the same this week. I have a few updated characters, as well as some new faces, so I will start the week off with an old favorite of mine: hope you like, enjoy! :biggrin: tomorrow.....An old friend!
