Connor O'Bain's customs

connor_obain · 08-24-2017, 04:27 AM

Hola Chaps and Chappettes!
Its Been a while but I am kickstarting my creative side in the hopes that I can finish off some of the many (many) customs TMNT customs i have on the go.

and this time instead of spamming up the forum with multiple threads I am just going to have one thread of which i will be updating with new customs and new photos of old customs as i have a new photo set up.

Most of these customs will be for sale unless otherwise stated so if you are interested shoot me a PM.

Anyway! First up is my latest custom Krang in his android body!

Krang is made from a Hero Mashers Juggernaught body/Colossus head with sculpted details. Krang himself is full sculpted but non removable. He stands 7.5 inches tall and has 10 points of articulation.

As always comments/thoughts/criticisms welcome.

Nice Work! Great to see you back too. Since you used a mashers are you going to have any alternate arms/hands?

Cheers, It's good to be back.

I actually have plans to make a version two very soon with alternative hands and a light up feature but i need to finish a some of my back catalog first

You need a piece of cellophane to complete it.

I'm just getting started custom painting figures, what type of paint do you use? I got acrylic matte and it came out horribly...so I need to get the right kind.

Optimus Primer · 08-25-2017, 06:11 PM

EPIC Krang, Connor! Unique base, too!

I use Citadels and Vallejos. I get them at my comic shop, but they're available online, too.

Its getting to the point that I only seem to be posting annually but i hope to remedy that with a good few customs. In the meantime a wee peek of whats coming next

*Leo656* · 02-20-2019, 04:08 AM

Very cool stuff.

I've recently started dabbling in Customs but haven't completed any projects yet. I like to take a look at what people are doing, and it's very inspiring.

Your ideas are outside the box and you execute them well. Nice work.

I’m looking forward to seeing this one. Vid vicious to my knowledge has never had a custom made of him.

*oldmanwinters* · 02-20-2019, 07:38 AM

Yeah, Vid Vicious!

rinascimento · 02-20-2019, 01:29 PM

As far as I can tell it might be the first buuuut I pretty much got him "finished" and then wasnt happy with a few bits soooo i've taken him apart to re do some stuff. so he might be a while longer.

For some reason he is one of the TMNT Villains that really stuck with me and I have been wanting to do a custom of him for a while

Thanks, just picked up another figure that i think will make a pretty cool base for another Krang.

TurtleManiac · 02-26-2019, 03:49 PM

They all look awesome! Vid Vicious looking good so far!

connor_obain · 03-14-2019, 10:20 AM

Thanks for the comments, Vid is on his way but in the meantime here's my take on the Origami Ninja

He's made from a Disney toybox Miles Morales Spiderman figure and there are more photos of him over at my Flickr page

Up next...... The foot Lieutenant

connor_obain · 03-17-2019, 03:06 PM

Please excuse the poor photos, didn't have my usual set up (and the difference is sooooo noticeable [/sarcasm])

But as i said earlier, here is my take on the rise of the turtles Foot Lieutenant

He is made from a Disney toybox Kylo Ren figure, the head and sword are completly scratch sculpted and he has a removable magnetic flame. there are more photos of him over on my flicker page if your interested

as always, thoughts comments and criticisms are welcome : )

next up Foot Brute (or vid vicious. both are near completion)

*TheCanadiandrome* · 03-02-2020, 04:09 PM

wow dude, i love your work

*frank_one* · 04-12-2021, 06:18 PM

TMNachoT · 04-18-2021, 11:29 AM

Nice customs!!

connor_obain · 09-21-2023, 10:55 AM

Can you belive its been over two years?!?

But I am back and with a custom that has sat 90% finished for about a year and a half, I present my secont attempt at Slash!

The base figure is a Disney toybox venom.

As always, thoughts/comments/critisims, bring em on

connor_obain · 10-05-2023, 12:50 PM

This fella had been sitting even longer than my previous Slash custome waiting to be finished. But here he is...the interglactic villain sometimes known as Bob....Bellybomb.

Body & arms: WWE Jim Neidhart
Legs: Marvel universe Colossus Juggernaught.
Head, hands, eyelids and belt: Scratch built
Lower jacket: sculpted sugru
Gun: Fodder

Bellybomb has 21 points of articulation and interchangable eyelids held in place with magnets. He also has an articulated mouth making use of the base figures ab-cruch.

as always thoughts/comments/critisims welcome
