kaipo Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 whats ur savin recipe??? looks awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Thx, just Savin's head on Mr Church. The only thing different is the jacket, which is from Coulson. I had to give it a coat of black paint to match the arm/leg color. Couldn't remember if Savin wore a tie at Stark Industries, but I like it better without. Also, not sure what color pants Rhodey wore, if anyone knows, please post. There are a few others I am working on, but pix from the movie are too few online at the moment...

Onyx_6 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 How much of Rhodey and Pepper required paint? Read: what are their recipes Great customs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Thanks guys! Rhodey was a complete repaint from neck to waist, including the arms, I had to try and color match his skin tone as best I could. I made decals for his chest and sleeves. Pants and shoes were from my part bin, maybe from '24'? Pepper's chest started as one of the Femme Fatales (Little Red?), but I had to add a lot of paint detali as the chest block only had a tampo on the front. Same with her legs. Head is a Sarah Connor, I think. Hair was originally a black hairpiece, I mixed colors until I got something I thought worked as a 'strawberry blonde'.

Nervous Rex Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hey YB, I'm really digging that Rhodey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thanks bud! Here are the decals if anyone wants to use them. The green paint I used was Citadel Goblin Green, so I tried to color match the decal green to that as best as I could. The skin tone is matched to Rhodey's head from Iron Patriot.

youbastards Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thanks monkeycrumb. I think I may head to Barnes and Noble after work and see if the "Art of Iron Man 3" book has the specifics I need for the customs. So far, the best source of info has been the Upper Deck cards on eBay that contain a piece of the costume. From those, I found that Savin needs a gold/black striped tie.

Rock Steady Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I think the Ghostbuster's NYC Mayor has the perfect tie for Savin, even has the kinda open collar/loose tie combo that I believe Savin was rocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Great custom, YB. Now you just need a Man-Thing to go with her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Thanks! Here he is! This is an old one, from 2010. I think the Ghostbuster's NYC Mayor has the perfect tie for Savin, even has the kinda open collar/loose tie combo that I believe Savin was rocking. Yeah, the style is right, but the tie color is off. I may work on a decal this weekend based on that design though, thanks for pointing it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
