Nice! It's awesome to see these Nick TMNT customs. The repaint work I've seen so far just goes to show how good these figures can be, given the right attention.

The Purple Dragon 07-08-2012 07:06 AM

good work. i like it. hope some repaint of the turtles come soon i cant wait to do some repaint my self.we have good times to come with the new turtles and new customs and i love the new figures the only down hill is that only the turtles does get proper articulation but i love the sculpt to now. keep them coming

ersico 07-08-2012 07:17 AM

thanks yall.
i intended on getting 2 kraangs and one don
only to paint on the one kraang but now. im kinda hooked and need all of the toys :) i might add just some details to Don, hes pretty Badass right out of the box. maybe just some detail on the weopons and some washes on the bandages and skin :)

Patraw 07-09-2012 10:43 AM

Outstanding paintwork, the darker color scheme really brings the character to life!

Very good job! Love it

ersico 07-10-2012 07:59 AM

arkangel 07-10-2012 08:02 AM

Love the details you added to the weapons...

ersico 07-16-2012 02:02 PM

thanks, subtle but effective :)

scar1321 07-16-2012 04:40 PM

I can't stop looking at the re-paint Turtles! I want mine to look like that!

zkarlette 07-16-2012 04:42 PM

Great customs ersico!paint does do wonders.:)

Newton Gimmick 07-16-2012 09:11 PM

I really hope Playmates releases another Kraang with the translucent blue body shells that seem to be in the show. It's clear their figure was made off of early promo art. You did a nice job of replicating it as best as possible, but the figure really needs a new sculpt entirely.

Some translucent blue plastic and articulation would be a good start, Playmates!

Scud 07-17-2012 06:31 AM

Sweet work!
Thanks for the before and after shots.

I'd also like it if he were in the chest area instead of the stomach, which also seems to be the way he will be in the show. I also would like if the tentacles could be hidden while in the exosuit

ersico 07-17-2012 11:47 AM

its easy to stuff the tentacles behind and inside of the brain while in the suit to hide them

See this I did not know, he is one of the only character's from the new toys I don't own yet and every picture has him with his tentacles proudly on display. Thanks for letting me know as this one of the reasons I hadn't yet purchased him

ersico 07-17-2012 01:05 PM

my pleasure, when i get hom,e ill take my kraang and fold him up and snap some pics...
oh and he isnt a solid ball, his underside is concave. almost made so it could be a semi-facehugger
:)

More great repaints

Danakin 07-26-2012 12:52 AM

These are all awesome! Did you add elbow/knee articulation to the newer exosuit or did you just straighten the limbs? Love your Turtle repaints too.

ersico 07-26-2012 05:31 AM

:teek: Metalhead is sick. Awesome job dude.

ersico 10-19-2012 08:30 AM

thanks so very much :)

Veedubguy83 10-19-2012 08:32 AM

Lovin' all your repaints... Metalhead looks awesome! Also, if you don't mind me asking, what method did you use to add articulation to the Kraang figure?

ersico 10-19-2012 08:44 AM

thanks :)
im using some small revoltech joints :) got them off ebay

Zulithe 10-19-2012 11:51 AM

big fan... wish i had that metalhead repaint :) actually i wish i had all of them!

love the copper-toned shell, great choice

ersico 10-19-2012 11:58 AM

thanks so much!
everything can be had :)
im not sure what prices are for customs here so i would need some help with that as i do glyos and other customs for commission
but these can be had :)


also. i should note, the thighs, where the ball joint is has some paint rub. not sure if thats normal or easily avoided... to me thats the only issue but since its all dark, not very noticable unless you look for it.

TheCanadiandrome 10-20-2012 09:35 PM

Metalhead rocks man! i bow before u
