RAID

My final Customcon 22 tutorial; RAID.

I started with a Punisher figure and cut away some details.
I made some alterations to a cerebro helmet.I used Sculpey for details and to finish the helmet.A little primer provides a good preview.Then I accessorize and give a final paint job.

Dr Faustus

Here's a quick look at how Faustus was made:

I started with a Manute figure (from Sin City)
I needed to make him shorter so I cut down his waist and legs.I used boiled sculpey to alter his face and for the suit details. I also needed to fix his legs.I realized that his arms looked too long so I shortened them too.
First a white primer coat.
I added a monocle and cigarette holder and then painted. Pin stripes are a nightmare.

Here's a few more how-to progress pics of Sin.

I boiled sculpey onto the figure for the extra clothing details.

I followed that up with a white base coat before the final paint application.


From there I scratch built the gun belt from twist tie and epoxy putty...

Customcon 22


Well I'm pleased to announce my figures are up on day 1 of Customcon 22!
Marvel Legends 2-Packs: Enemies of the State is my first attempt at customizing (mostly) Marvel Legends figures and it was a lot of fun.
I'll share some of the before and after photos of the figures in my next post.
