boyd Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 The annual festival of customs called CustomCon is running this week, and today they posted my entry. It's a group of Minimate customs from a comic that I loved - X-Statix. Go check them out if you'd like. X-Statix Minimates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 They look great!! I love how you captured the artist's individual style. I am glad someone from MMV was able to enter this CustomCon! I usually enter, but I have been too busy these last few months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reideen1313 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Those are fantastic Boyd!! I love Allred's work and am amazed by how accurately you were able to capture his style. Beautiful work!!

BannersID Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I'm also a big fan of Allred and I must say you did a spot on job of conveying his style, nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpool Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Gotta be honest, never gave a damn bout X-Statix. That being said, those are amazing! I love Dead Girl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Customizer Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 They all look well done (very) but the hands on DOOP the cameraman really draw the eyes to the figure. Little extra's like that make a custom stand out IMO. What did you use for the hands on that figure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 Thanks for all the compliments, guys! I originaly wasn't going to do the whole group, just Dead Girl and maybe U-Go Girl. But when I figured out how to do Doop, I knew I was going to have to make the team. I blame customizing OCD. I am glad someone from MMV was able to enter this CustomCon! I usually enter, but I have been too busy these last few months. I hear you - I started working on these this spring for the Summer Custom Con. Glad I made the Fall one at least. They all look well done (very) but the hands on DOOP the cameraman really draw the eyes to the figure. Little extra's like that make a custom stand out IMO. What did you use for the hands on that figure? Doop's fingers were made from MagicSculpt. I let them dry a little to get semi-solid, then attached to ordinary Minimate hands with more MagicSculpt, followed by sanding and smoothing. I broke a few of them until I got them right.
