Attack Of The Neutrinos (part 2 in 3 part series)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...etherLarge.pngWell this damn figure (Kala) and her little Pet the Grybyx have taken me forever to finish what with starting a job and trying to get them as perfect as I can so I don't have to hear to much of "I'd have done it this or that way" and then having the Grybyx's arm's break off and having to resculpt him.
I've also been working on a set of 4 custom TMNT for Spitfire, Finishing a painting for a client, and just started working a cd design for a local band. So there hasn't been much time for me to do my own projects and trust me there are allot of TMNT customs I've got lined up.
I was never happy with how Kala was painted and the things she came with, that's why I did this.
One of the hardest parts was trying to do the cartoonish black outlines around the figures as I had to keep going back over and repainting color parts as the paint would get on a little to much.
The other thing that made this so difficult was the fact that the shade of green that they used on Kala's outfit in the show isn't sold in stores so I had to mix quite a few shades together for that and some other things like the Grybyx's eyes.
I really tried as hard as I could though to get these things to look as close to the show, so I hope you enjoy them.

I think you have done a pretty good job with her :)

Great job with these, I like the Grybyx's paint a lot. Did you do him from a scratch, or is there something under that sculpting? Anyways, seems lot better than original figure :)

I don't remember the Grybyx at all, but he looks cool (kinda reminds me of Q*bert in some ways)--great job sculpting him regardless. Kala looks very good as well. The only criticism I have is that your black lines are still kind of thick/heavy-looking (not unlike McFarlane Toy's Simpsons work). Also, how about a couple of shots of Kala from the back and front without the critter in the way?

Looks awesome, really looking forward to the finished set!

Stellar job! I love how these two came out. Very rich colors and great tones.

FREAKIN AWESOME! Sell it to me! lol. Seriously keep up the great work.

good job on these customized. Ive always wanted to create some customes but never get around to it. this has given me some inspiration :D

while the kala is just a repaint, the grybyx actually looks pretty accurate, considering if it was made from scratch. honestly i never even noticed that the toon neutrinos were painted the wrong colors.

Great work my friend. Love the Grybyx, though I don't remember what he looks like.

i like it a lot. you fixed it up by a lot. i dont really like the colors she came with though, you made it look waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better.:D ha ha, it looks kind of like cakes my mom makes because of the paint.

grybyx! that's awesome.
is it stationary or poseable? either way, it looks god.

kala's new colors are intersting. i'm not sure if i like the outlines so much, but it looks better than he original.

Where are Part 1 and Part 3?

Check the link in his sig to see all of his fantastic custom work, including the other neutrinos.

Thanks guys, part 3 is not done yet meaning Dask and a large item to go with him will be in the works in 2012.

As always another awesome custom man. Can't wait to see the whole set done.
