  1. As a diorama maker, I think it's great to see you guys doing an article on them. Pricing wise, these seem pretty on par with what most people charge (myself included). The prices are high because they are handmade pieces of art generally. Ebay is a wonderful place to find some, but make sure to check out places on facebook and instagram like Diostructure or Diorama Creators to find other artists out there making amazing stuff!

  2. Finally got around to making a more modern looking mu ghost rider. I mixed the mu version with the super hero showdown version and voila! More pictures can be found over at O.P.P.

  3. Classic Hulk:

    dang that Hulk head is perfect... if I could paint worth a damn I would be using that too

     

    OPP is starting to offer head painting as well, done by Legend if I'm not mistaken. Head over to the site for more info!

  4. I'm working on making a show accurate (or close to accurate) Avengers: EMH Black Panther. Here's a shot of the head so far. It still needs some tweaking, and I gotta get working on the body, but I hope you guys dig it!

  5. Anyone know if TRU has the 2 for 10.99 sale still?

    I think it was a Friday and Sat. sale only

     

    Darn, I wanted to get a few more figs for customs.

     

    Forgot to post but I managed to snag these up on Friday. No MU's unfortunately.

    you lucky lucky man...I haven't even seen the previous wave and you've got two guardian snake eyes :(

    lol, sweet haul

  6. he's actually a bit tall, and he's not as bulky as the MU hulk, so I had an idea and did this...

    I swapped out the forearms and the lower legs of the movie hulk and an MU hulk...

     

    here's how my "donor" looks after the operation...

    As you can see, it kind of "balances" the overall appearance of the movie hulk.

    Now all that it need's is a little paint to balance the color...

     

    Props to bro Shawndustin for sharing his idea...

     

    Tell me what you think! thumbsupup.gif

     

     

    I actually like the look of the mu hulk with the movie parts better than the movie hulk with mu parts....now if only I had those movie hulk parts lol.

  7. When you guys paint, what do you use? And do you prim it first, then paint, then seal it? Ever use spray paint? haha as you can see I'm quite clueless

     

    personally I use testors model masters acryl paints...any good acrylic paint will do, so long as it's not the cheap walmart craft paints or anything. You don't always have to prime your figures, though it can help greatly depending on the color you want to lay down. Remember to use multiple thin coats when painting, it gives a smoother look and better coverage when you're done. I haven't sealed any figures or used spray paint, but there are tons of really great tutorials on the net when it comes to painting figures. Good luck with your first custom, and always remember, there are a lot of really great customizers on here and over at O.P.P. that are always willing to offer advice :)

  8. Ok guys, here s a w.i.p. of my upcoming Gears of War Locust Drone head. Original head was MU Wrecker. I still have a lot of sculpting to add.

    i can also see a zombie in this sculpt...maybe something resident evil or dawn of the dead kind

  9. I went to target today, gave a guy the dcpi number for the thor figures. He brought out the box and let me grab what I wanted...man..i had two thors, odin, loki, and a frost giant in my hands ready to checkout...then the guy comes running up and says he's sorry but he checked the box and he can't let me buy them since they're street dated for march 1st. it was so sad....at least the rest of my hunting trip paid off. Now I have an extra constrictor, extra classic havok, extra commando snake eyes, and I finally found a cobra shock trooper. Still though....I had them in my hands, they were mine for a min or two lol.

     

    That's so weird. All of the thor figures by me are already on the pegs next to the iron man 2 figures

     

    yeah it seems a lot of targets are not following the street dates, but here around me they all are.
