Hello everyone. I'm new to customizing action figures, and after looking at all the great customs that you all create it inspired me to try my hand at it. So I wanted to share some pictures of the figures that I've been working on. Before all I've ever worked on was kitbashing Transformers building model cars this is my first attempt at customizing an action figure. Thanks to everyone for the inspiration to try this :)

The Recipe isn't anything new:
Head, upper, and mid torso ML Series 2 Thing,
Arms, Legs, and Waist Thunder Launch Thing.

The only 'Thing' (no pun intended...) I'd do is paint all the 'rocky' parts of the figure so your colors on the arms, legs and torso match.

I agree painting the rocky parts would make the parts match better. I applied a wash to help with color match, before the arms and legs were much lighter.
