Rheul Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 These look great sha_ckwave! I am jealous of the bin. Where did you get it? My current project is Firestar but I am still stuck on finding a skin tone paint for the chest. I also revised my Namorita with parts from a Tinkerbell. Thoughts on the paint? Just use any flesh colored acrylic paint. You my need to lighten it a bit to get the correct tone. Just be sure to prime the area with white first so the color will be true and smooth.

Tetton517 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I finally bought another New Mutants set so I could have a Doug to complete the team. I ended up using Suspended Captain America's face and think its a pretty good resemblance. Anyone else who's made a Doug, what gave did you use? I'm just curious if there's another I can use because I kinda love that Cap figure and would like to display him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroic Slacker Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 IMO the Captain America Reborn face works perfectly for Cypher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Personally, I think he looks a little too old there. I recommend the XMFC Havok head and hair (which also works if you're making a Geoffry Barathian custom). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Katz Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Good call on Geoffry haha I used first class Angel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroic Slacker Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The whole reason I don't display that Havok is because he reminds me too much of Geoffry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Joffrey. I just grabbed an extra Warlock and carefully removed the techno off Doug's face. Pardon all the dust. Victoria Hand & Flash Thompson Ghost Sharon Carter & Quake Bishop's neckerchief & Dazzler's cigarette (I need another Susan hand before I paint this one) Madison Jeffries Pixie Ann Weying I liked the original Thanos head better Same with Doctor Strange Banshee Boliver Trask X-Factor (ignore Scott & Jean) Fantastic Four Black Widow I & II and Hawkeye Trickshot Cage & Jewel Siryn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetton517 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Those are some great figures. I guess I'll track down another Magik and Warlock. I need another female body for powered down Amara anyway. I have no clue where I saw the recipe for her on here. Anyone remember? This is a pricey team to complete powered down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroic Slacker Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Love that Victoria Hand and Pixie! DST was pretty smart when it came to the New Mutants, multiple looks for multiple sales, and a complete team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 That Pixie looks really good! Where did you find that piece for Bishop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) Thanks, guys. MM, it was from Raza from the Hostile Takeover boxed set from Iron Man 1. I just cut it out, painted it, and it fits perfectly over the tampo'd version! Pixie was just too perfect not to do. First Appearance Jean (but Magik's crotch for the red belt) with FA Angel's wing harness, Theatre Ghost's wings, Betsy Braddock's face, Jewel's hair.

emperorshotz Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 And Ghost? That's my favorite of your QC's-- almost perfect! What's the recipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that piece already existed when they came out with that Bishop figure?! That's a little disappointing. Yours looks a lot better than the painted one we got. That Pixie recipe seems simple enough. I might give it a shot if I can track down the pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freaqualizer Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 And Ghost? That's my favorite of your QC's-- almost perfect! What's the recipe? Looks like Anti Venom without the powerhouse piece, Crossbones harness piece and AntMan 2 head. Looks awesome, please let me know if I'm wrong.

TENIME_art Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) Nope, that's it! And they didn't technically have a neckerchief. It was part of the sculpting of Raza's coat. I had to cut it out of the coat. It laughingly miffs me when other people don't include recipes, so I feel bad for not doing so myself.

CortherX Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 the Siryn custom is so perfect. i immediately had to make her a cape, though. just used yellow highliter and black sharpie on a piece of glossy paper (a page a day calendar). she's perfect.

TENIME_art Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Thanks! Supposedly, if you remove the white paint from Photon's cape, it's translucent yellow. I only have the one, though, and she's incredibly hard to find extras of for just that one part. Quite a few people here have gone that route for Siryn & Banshee customs. Let's see a pic of yours!

Zexion_Armando Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 My attempt to make a current Emma Frost. What would help, I guess, is some way of drawing on the paint texture on Wesker/80's Storm's arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
