boyd Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Love that Madame Masque. So simple and clean. Love how you did the face. Quote
jcastick Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Nice, clean customs fwoosh! Great job! Quote
fwoosheyman Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Since we got the Mayor I figured it's time for him to have some company. I always liked Cody's Final Fight design so this was a pleasure to make. First class Havok head and hair, repainted jean legs, Ryu gauntlets and sneakers from the new Back to the Future set. I also redid Haggar since I can't stand the bulky torso piece. The chest strap is made from pieces of Sinister's cape. Edited October 30, 2011 by fwoosheyman Quote
Psyguy Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Cody looks great! It would be rude not to make Guy now. And maybe Maki...? Quote
Bob Harris Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Very nice Madame Mask and Samson! Cody looks cool, too. What paint do you use? I really like the colors on you customs. Very smooth, very clear, very bright. Really good job! Quote
fwoosheyman Posted October 30, 2011 Author Posted October 30, 2011 I mainly use Citadel paints from Games Workshop. They apply very smoothly. I also use some Apple Barrel from Walmart. They don't apply as smooth as the Ciatdel but they have some brighter colors not available from Citadel. Quote
Mystery Man Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) Madame Masque, Doc Samson and Lady Hydra look fantastic, fella! Very nice job on three figures I'd love to have! Edited October 31, 2011 by Mystery Man Quote
fwoosheyman Posted January 14, 2012 Author Posted January 14, 2012 (edited) It's been awhile since I posted, so I'm late to Odinfest. I used most of the usual parts on Odin except for the 1st Apperance Thor cape and MvC Stealth Iron Man arms/legs. Next up is Lara Croft from Tomb Raider. I modeled it after the more recent designs and not the classic look. Final one for today is the Super Adaptoid. It was inspired by some of the customs I've seen here and the Bowen bust. The wings are made from Photon's cape which I cut in half and took some of the curl out of by heating it up and reshaping it. Dark Hawkeye mask provided some pre-painted eyes and there's a quiver of arrows on the back from the Old Man Hawkeye minimate. Edited January 14, 2012 by fwoosheyman Quote
MiniFiend UK Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 Great usw of the cape for the wings. Super Adaptoid is a cool character and glad to seeing so many great customs. Quote
buttheadsmate Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 The Super-Adaptoid is amongst my TOP 10 Wants ......that's a beautiful version . Quote
boyd Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Gorgeous Odin and Super-Adaptoid. The gold/red/blue combo on Odin is particularly striking. And I may have to borrow your Super-Adaptoid recipe in the future - just need to see if I have the extra parts... Quote
dj87 Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 great bunch of mates there. I too would very much like a Super Adaptoid, and the chap wouldn't require any new parts after all. Lara is instantly recognisable, and Obin is rather majestic Quote
youbastards Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 I think I need to tweak my Odin after seeing yours, it looks great! How did you attach the modified Photon cape to Adaptoid, glue? Quote
fwoosheyman Posted January 16, 2012 Author Posted January 16, 2012 I think I need to tweak my Odin after seeing yours, it looks great! How did you attach the modified Photon cape to Adaptoid, glue? Just standard super glue from walmart. Quote
TENIME_art Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Lara Croft recipe, please? :biggrin: Quote
fwoosheyman Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 (edited) Lara Croft Recipe: Head: Batwoman Hair: Number Six Gina from BSG Torso: Number Six Gina from BSG Belt: X-Men First Class Havok (comes w Xavier and Magneto as well) Legs & Arms: Random flesh colored with paint to match the other parts Guns: Dante (painted) Backpack: Peter Parker First, credit to Bob Harris for the idea of using Cloak's cape and hood for The Hood, it works perfectly. No idea where the torso is from it was in my parts bin. I just painted the jacket on it. Added a few more parts from the bin and I was done. I was hesitant to make The Hood given his high profile in the comics, it seemed like a logical release for DST. So I'm sure he'll be shown at Toy Fair. Edited January 17, 2012 by fwoosheyman Quote
fwoosheyman Posted April 14, 2012 Author Posted April 14, 2012 (edited) Been awhile. First up is Headsman. Inspired by all the customs I've seen here. X3 juggernaut, menace skirt and Ratchet harness repainted. I trimmed/repainted Klank which attaches to the harness and made him into the backpack. Trimmed and repainted Mogg's ax and glued one of Apocalypse's arm tubes to it. Next up is Hammerhead. JJJ body, repainted Rhodes hairpiece and the Tommygun is from Brickwarriors. Last one is Hitman. Repainted JJJ tie, arms are from a Tony Stark minimate and the rest are random repainted pieces. Edited April 14, 2012 by fwoosheyman Quote
Punisher Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 That's an incredible Headsman! The other two look great as well. Quote
boyd Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Really, really nice Headsman - love your parts choices. I may have to borrow that recipe if you don't mind? Quote
TENIME_art Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 They all look factory (my biggest compliment)! My only suggestion is that Hitman looks too angry. In my experience, he's never really shown too much emotion. Quote
fwoosheyman Posted April 16, 2012 Author Posted April 16, 2012 Really, really nice Headsman - love your parts choices. I may have to borrow that recipe if you don't mind? nope I don't mind. I borrowed ideas from other Headsman customs. Quote
fwoosheyman Posted April 22, 2012 Author Posted April 22, 2012 It's Little Mac from Nintendo's Punch Out series. Some Rocky parts repainted, torso from a BSG figure, head is Marty from the latest boxset and the hair is a repainted random hairpiece from the parts bucket. Superboy is just a quick custom I've been meaning to do for awhile. Battle Damaged Superman torso repainted, Chris Redfield arms repainted, pants/shoes from latest BTTF boxset, head from the parts bucket and a repainted Tony Stark hairpiece. C Viper is just a repaint since I prefer her all black costume to the blue one that DST made. Quote
fwoosheyman Posted December 15, 2012 Author Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) Been a long time since I posted here. Just two quick customs I recently completed. First is Heroic Age Hawkeye. Mostly a mix of Fear Itself and Dark Hawkeye parts. A Peter Venkman head with the top trimmed off some so the mask went down further. Dark Hawkeye's quiver was removed from the original piece and glued to the back in order to reduce the bulkiness. Phoenix Force Cyclops is just the chest piece and all the red on the figure repainted to match. Citadel Blood Red was the paint I used. I also changed out the fireballs with ones that better matched the Phoenix stand. Edited December 15, 2012 by fwoosheyman Quote
