My first custom-figure

Topsu · 11-16-2008, 12:58 PM

Well, I thought I'd put pics of this here too. It's Future Raphael from Archie series, if somebody doesn't know. Made it from Neca Michelangelo, with missing right hand, which I made from climbing hand. Also made his expression different, added wrinkles and eyepatch, and of course his cap. Oh, and painted arm/kneepads too.

Also, a size comparison with my next custom, which is sensored so far.... You'll see it later

Any thoughts on this figure, what could've been better, any advice? Thanks.

EDIT: Here's the current phase of that Armaggon, still rough, and needs work. Paints are on some parts coz of testing, and making the base colors underneath the yellow belts/things, which haven't been made yet.

I used Green Stuff for that cap, but I also like Magic Sculp, pretty easy to use to do small details. As for tools, I used my hands and cocktail-stick.

Your Raph custom looks subperb, and the shadow is very obviously Armaggon.

Are you sure it's not Shredder-Shark?

**Jester** · 11-17-2008, 12:19 PM

Maybe...but come on who else would go with Archie Future Raph...

Topsu · 11-17-2008, 01:20 PM

Well, I also thought doing matching Don, but I don't have Neca figs atm. Timeslip portal is also something I plan to do. Shredder-shark? Sounds interesting
