Dwellers of the "realm"...... Just want to share my latest custom work with you all. First and foremost I just wanted to say that I believe the first person to do this custom with this recipe is a fellow artist/customizer who goes by the name, "Whitey's Workshop" here on the Figure Realm. I did a few things differently against the original customizers work to preserve what I feel to be trade marked to him and to feel comfortable producing my own version. Basically its a 2007 TMNT movie Splinter toy with a bit of altering. Its was a bunch of dremeling and a little sculpting. Splinters sparring dummy, cane, carpet and flower basket were all made from scratch. The rug is Origami paper glued to bossa wood. The bowl is basically a "bowl" I made with Aves apoxie sculpt. Splinters sparring 'dummy' is a couple of wooden dowels and glue with a bit of shaping and sanding. The flowers were originally yellow tulips. I bought them at a local gardening center gift shop and painted them over with violet paint. The idea was that there are four of them, one for each of his sons. VERY special thank you to Whiteys Workshop for this inspiration. ~ Kevlar
I used wire cutters to get most of it off. Then go in with an exacto and carefully carve away. Take your time and sliver off tiny pieces. Also pop the head off with hot water, cause it makes it a helluva lot easier and you won't damage the head with the knife.
Its all good. You could use black if you wanted but I actually used a a dark brown instead. You can pm me if you need any other tips bud. Happy to help. K
