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

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

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, 12:05 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 · 07-25-2012, 11:52 PM

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, 04:31 AM

thanks so very much

Veedubguy83 · 10-19-2012, 07:32 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, 07:44 AM

thanks

im using some small revoltech joints

got them off ebay

*Zulithe* · 10-19-2012, 10:51 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, 10:58 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.
