I used a Leon head from NECA, ML Namor arms, Spike Torso and legs, and SOTA Lara Croft feet. I also robbed all of Leon's accessories from the NECA Leon. It's kind of 2 figures in one, I made the upper bodies interchangeable, 2 different torsos (jacketed and non) and the head and hands I just switch over to whichever torso Leon is using. All in all, he was pretty fun to make, now I just have to make a Chris Redfield to stomp a mudhole in his arse!!!
I started playing re4 a few days ago and I think you did the best custom of this leon version for now! I'm also really in love with your classic jill valentine...
Thanks man! I am still proud of that Leon, he came out well. RE4 continues to be one of my all-time favorite RE games, if this is your first time playing it, I envy you.
This custom is awesome dude! If neca had any sense they would've made their Leon like this. A couple questions, how did you sculpt the small lines on his shirt so well, and how did you harvest neca Leon's accessories?
Thanks man! For any piping I always use my dremel to dremel in grooves, and then I take those little black twisty wires that hold action figures in clamshells, and take a razor blade and strip off one side and then glue them into the grooves I dremeled. For the accessories, the pouches and holsters pull off pretty easily. The thigh straps, thigh pockets, and glove cuffs, I had to cut them off and dremel out the insides. Hope that makes sense!
I would pay just to have this figure made omg let me know I'm tryimg to gather all parts just missing leon and nomar and two u should make krauser regular neca sucked and wesker from re5
Thanks guys. I am actually gonna make all 3 Chris Redfields, and the one from Umbrella Chronicles, he'd be last on the list though. I am actually done with Chris from RE1, but I am not happy with his arms, so I am gonna find some new ones, I wish I had more namor arms, they are awesome arms. I love Resident Evil (games, not movies), so if they appeared in the game, I'll probably make them. I am actually working on Chris from RE5 as we speak, and Claire from Resident Evil 2 and CV are about 70% done. It is impossible for me to start a figure and work solely on that one from start to finish, I usually work on and off about 5 different ones. It's a pain in the bum. Thanks for the encouraging words, any suggestions for characters, I'd be happy to hear them. chances are I'm probably working on them already.
Great job, excellent Leon and excellent idea of swith hands for a Jacket, Neca should did that, that will help to just have one version of Leon, these customs should be the real line of resident evil, they are awesome, I agree that neca figures are too big and I prefer resident evil figures from palisades, great job, which chris you gonna make resident evil five, veronica or resident evil remake?.
I'm with The Real Question on this one I loved your Jill(especiallyRE3) and now I love this. I also can't wait to see your Chris and I would like to see you make a Claire Redfield.
sorry, I knew I forgot to mention something. The Jacket torso is also a Destiny Spike figure, jacketed arms are the marvel Legends Ultimate Nick Fury and the hands are from NECA Leon.
Awesome work! I have similar parts, and was trying to figure out how to pull this off myself. Curious though - what figure did the jacket torso + jacket arms come from? And the hands?
