Custom Titanus Action Figure - Final Sculpt Pics now on page 2
 

Titanus was a character that didn't last to long in the red sky seasons of the old cartoon but I still like how he looks and have always wanted a figure of him along with many other this is just the first in many figures I plan to make.
If you have no idea who Titanus is you can read more about him HERE, HERE, & HERE
Also here are some images of Titanus From the show Thanks to Spitfire for the images.

Firslty I'd like to give a bit of information on what I'm sculpting on top of to make Titanus I'm using a Dark Ages Spawn Ogre figure he's pretty large and when a turtle is standing next to him it's a pretty good height for a figure of Titanus who is a really large character.

Oh now here are some images of Titanus This is just the start of him I've been working on him all night non-stop I ran out of Sculpy so I will go get some more and I should be baking and then painting him later tonight.
But for now I hope you enjoy what I've done thus far.

Like it says this is the final sculpt of the character more images are on the second page showing how large he is next to other characters in the tmnt action figure lines.
I will be posting painted photos soon as I have it finished!
Thanks again to everyone this has been a blast.

You make your own figures? That is quite impressive. Even though those pictures aren't the finished product, I can tell it is quality work.

Hey thanks so much I apricate the comment it's nice to see 30 people looked at this thread and no one said anything but you.:roll:

Dude, this is frickin' sweet! I've never heard of the character before, but what you've done here is just amazing! Wish I could do that...

Thanks I really apricate it. :) I'm trying to finish him up so I can start on my next ones.

Dude! That is freakin' hard core! A lot of people complain that Playmates doesn't make such and such a character, but you're the first person I've ever seen do something about it.

I'm guessing you've made your own custom figures before? Have any other pics of your work?

Very very... impressive to say the least, my friend. :)

Thanks so much I have a bunch of others planed out allready but Titanus is first here. I plan to Make Darius Dunn, Crazy Mutated Nepolean, Mung, And 2 Versions of Lord Dregg, Mr. Ogg, Zach the 5th turtle, Bezerko, And some others as well from the old toon that I've always wanted toys of.
And thanks I apricate that because while like you said allot of people complain about stuff I either get to the bottom of things or just do them.

wow I think someone needs their own toy line! Very very nice!

looks great...I think you could make alot on ebay selling custom figs.. Next you should make the greatest figure-neglected TMNT villain ever... the Globfather.

You know like I told you on aim it's my dream to have my own toy line.
thanks man! It's hard to part with them though but if anyone wants to pay me to make some one for them I'd be more than happy to.
And trust me he's on my list he's a pretty crazy character. Most of the Red Sky characters are first on my list. It's a shame so many of the old toon characters didn't get action figure treatment.

Love the pock marks. And the way those spikes just look natrual. And he's huge with out being totally fat. I'd pay top dollar for that.

Mostly because you'd make me, but still.

Put,

Very nice work. May I make a suggestion? I commend you for your work, but I was not sure if this was a suggestion thread to comment on the work so you may improve it. My only suggestion is the shoulder pads. I think they should be smaller and closer to the arms. What do you think?

Now, here's a question. How long does it take to master this technique?

I saved a Technodrome model I made out of clay in highschool, and it came out pretty crappy back then. I'd love to take another shot at it..

Also, do you know if this store, http://www.sculpey.com/ is good to order from?

Wow, great job and thanks for sharing the photos. I love his blemished face and individual teeth!

Looks great so far. I can't wait to see it finished. I'm glad you are getting people more into customizing TMNT. I have been wanting to get back into it for some time now and you have inspired me. I can't wait to start my figures for the custom contest. If you need any help with customizing contests or prizes or anything let me know. This is something I really want to see more of in the future and I want to help in anyway I can.

Thanks!
Thanks so much and nah I wouldn't charge people that much just my time, the supplies, etc.
Thanks and yeah I actully agree with you the only reason I didn't do that is because they look odd smaller, I have them placed in the spot they are so the arms are still able to be moved.
I plan to sculpt on his legs the same way so that he will still be articulated after being baked.
Do you have any suggestions for baking him? Slash told me to use a blow dryer but I'm not sure how well that works I usually pop them in the oven for a bit but it doesn't always go so well.
Um well I'm not sure but I used to sculpt allot with clays and sculpey as a teen and haven't done it in years this is my first time going back at it in some time I'd have to say I've gotten allot better but perhaps thats because I'm 27 now and not 18 like when I did my other ones I'm allot more focused now.
I've never orderd from that online store but Sculpey is what I use.
Thanks so much I've still got allot to add to him I had to stop because I ran out of Sculpey and had to have a tooth pulled yesterday EEPP! I'm starting to get better now though.
And his teeth are a little something I like to use called tooth picks hehehe.
Hey thanks I can't wait to see him finished as well because that means I move on to the next classic character.
Thanks and I'm glad I could inspire some one :)

I will agree with everyone else in saying this is a very cool figure.

When you make figures are they posable at all or do you just pick a pose you will want and make him out to be in that position?

Also do you make weapons when you customize the guys as well? I'm not sure if this guy had any weapons but for others.

Am eagerly looking forward to seeing the completed pictures.

I know I told you how awesome this was on AIM but seriously man this is some stellar work.

Wow, that's some amazing customizing. I hope you enter 2 entries in the custom contest, I'd love to see as much work from you as I can. Great stuff.

The fig is looking amazing man! Great job so far! :)

thanks everyone I'll have picks of the final pre-painted sculpt he's baking right now.

Wow that's awesome looking! I can't wait to see it painted.

Dude, you got some skill...very nice job

thanks guys I'm painting him right now. :)

I'm loving the Titanus but I have to say, that Usagi is sweet! Did you make that one as well?

Oh, wow. The attention to detail on his face is staggering! Such an awesome job. I'm really looking forward to seeing this painted!

Thanks and no Like I said He's a real toy look for the Dark Horse Usagi figure on ebay he even came with his lil green lizard buddy.
Thanks so much you know it's odd I seem to be better with faces than anything else. The body was very hard becauce I had to keep holding him as I did other thing to it I need to get a turn table for when I'm sculpting things like this.
Thank you He's almost finished!

-->> O Guh ..

he's looking georgeous !!.. >v<

thanks tokka after allot of things stopping me he's finally almost friggin done..his paint job has been so annoying.

Finally Finished you can check out the finished images over at my blog

Awesome work ;)

Thank you :)

Vaughan, I know we've had our differences, but I must say that this is pretty awesome work. Are you planning to enter him in Patraw's contest, since you technically hadn't finished him before the contest was announced? Or are you going to do something completely different altogether? I think you should also make Murphy aware of this-- it deserves some sort of higher recognition, if only a mention on his blog.

While I'm willing to praise this custom, I will say that it's not perfect-- but all things considered, it is pretty awesome. Well done.

Well I'm not perfect so I do the best that I can.
It was a bit difficult working with such a large character and trying to not mess ne part up while sculpting the other.
Anyway I've made Murph aware of it and he said it was nice.
Ryan Brown left a comment though and is excited about the other things I plan to do.
But thanks man and it's cool I'm over it I guess...this entire site gets to me some times so I've just backed off a bit and skip things I know will get me fired up.
About the contest no I don't think I will after how I was treated last time after working so hard...I think it's part of what kept me from getting this done for so long.
Just Keep an eye on my blog I'll have more customs soon and things from my sketch book related to TMNT.

He is fantastic bro. YOu always impress me with your art no matter which medium you choose.

Nice. How posable is he?
