Thanks pig and tx!

Is that the BP from the 2-pack? I only used the head, cape, arms, and lower legs from him. The torso and upper legs are from one of those short-armed cyclops figures
-
Yea I only used whatever parts I had available, and I felt that the chest and biceps could have been bigger, even the thighs too, but eh, you live and learn
-
Alright guys.. soooo... here is my first custom! Ever! Haha. I just kit bashed a MU Cyclops and a two pack MU Black Panther. At least it's better than the original 2 pack version! Haha aaannddd as you can tell I missed some spots :p
-
Yea I just air brushed it to see what it would look like with some color on it, and I knew I wouldn't use it again. I'm glad to know it was just some crappy paint.
-
So when I painted up my figure, he has kinda a sticky feel to him. He's dried I know that, but anyone know how to get rid of that?

Alright, so JayC helped me out and now I can finally post some pictures! haha. I'm not at home right not but when I am I'll take some pics and show you this very... special.... custom! :p. And by custom I mean pretty bad haha. But I'll show off it's horrendousness in pride knowing it's my first one! But in the mean time! I wanted to show what I like to do. I didn't know where to post this, but since this thread is "customs" I'll consider this my custom iron man :p. I'm pretty big into sketching and such so I sketched up this sort of Iron Man bust. For some reason the picture comes up to the side... weird. So let me know what you think! I can't decide what to do next, thor, or deadpool!

Just finished my first custom! Woo! But this site won't let me upload pictures!

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 :) Thanks a ton man! I know I'm over at OPP a lot too looking at everyone's amazing work. They are so good over there! haha. I'll prob pick up some of that paint then. Maybe for this first time since I don't have teh paints I'll just use some spray paint and see what happens :p haha. I'll be sure to post pictures of this horrendous piece of work! If this website ever lets me post pictures!
-
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
-
Heat the plastic and then use a pointed object to push the "pin" out. I've used a blowdryer to do it, but I'm sure there are other ways to do it. Sweet thanks, I'm gonna try this.

Hey so I had a quick question, I wanted to try at a custom... my first one! haha. What's the easiest way to detach and reattach elbow and knee joints?

FINALLY found those stupid variants tonight. Decided to randomly go out after work 15 minutes before target was closing and there tehy were! all three. And I have sunfire, ronin, and green hulk coming from HTS. Then I got piledriver/hawkeye and spidey/thunderball coming in from the disneystore. AND A grey hulk from a forum member. I think this drought made me crazy for some figures -
