here's my April. I went with purple trim because the orange was clashing with her hair and besides, she wears purple in the new show.

looks great man though id take some puddy to that neckline of hers to make it look more natural, just me though. Like I said, looks great as is.

Hey, I'm making one of Slash too. Based on the "FoxBox" stlye Slash I drew. I went with a Basic Leonardo with a Raph head, and The old school Shredder's armor.( Provided it looks right) If that armor dosen't look quite the way I want it too, I'm gonna Try something else.

I once tried to make a turtle out of clay ((and failled, might I add))... and when I was little, I use to make my own action figures out of paper and cut them out, color them on bolth sides and glue little peices on the back so I could pick up their weapons... I think I still have them in my room somewhere. If I find them, I'll scan them and show you my craptacular art ((muhahaha, maybe craptacular, but I had fun with them all the same))

FireFly 05-04-2004 09:13 PM

Those look awesome! The only customizing I ever did with my TMNT action figures was back when I was little, I tried to reattach one of My Leonardos' fallen arm using a spring I found in a pen. The result was a Leonardo with a Go, go, gadget arm! lol!

BigApple3AM 05-16-2004 12:29 PM

That april o'neil reminds me of kelly from saved by the bell (real name Tiffani Thiessan or something like that)

That is Old school Shredder all the way...amazing.

Triceraton 05-17-2004 10:01 PM

I'm pretty sure that April is just another figure repainted, with the hair resculpted(because I've seen the original figure she's based on at the comic shop here).

But yeah, I like that Shredder. Makes me wish we could get an official comic based action figure series, with at least the 4 TMNT, Shredder, and a Foot Ninja.

you're completely right, the guy says it himself on the site

Brodie 05-18-2004 04:52 PM

I think the figure shes remade from is like CHastity or something from the Lady Death comics or something.

TheRATKING 06-22-2004 02:26 PM

cool i like it better then the regular paint job, then again i never liked the paint job of the fig :P

JaffleMan 06-22-2004 06:25 PM

Thanks a heap for posting that for me Skabbz. You can notice from this front pic, iv'e cut off that stupid snake on his leg. Also i managed to pick and hack at all those little animals on his back so that they were beyond recognition, made a pretty cool jagged rock effect but it was pretty sharp so i buffed it down a bit to look like the rest of the figure. The yellow scorpion on his shoulder didn't need to be deformed because once painted, you caouldn't see any scorpion resembelance in it at all.

I am still yet to make a proper weapon for him, was going to paint the gun he's holding black/grey but didn't want to ruin a good Traag accessory. Thinking of casting the weapon and producing it and black platic but still got to find more info on doing this.

Iv'e been buying every cheap traag I get so I can make more customs but unfortunbately i keep finding variations in the figs. Not one of those Traags in the background is the same.

Here's my repainted "Napoleon" figure. I used Genghis for the base (Obviously!) he seems to be cracking in some areas, maybe next time I should gloss it. I also made a "Movie Star Casey" with removable mask from the Wily Whit figure (the 3rd movie sucked anyway) and I'll post that later, after I clean it up a bit.

cqb101 07-07-2004 02:40 PM

Cool customs!
