Abe's W.I.P's

I always prefered the predators to look more tribal/ primitive so I thought up this way to make a spear. I cut the tip off a brood queen leg , painted it black with silver dry brush . I think it caught that xenomorph look. the staff was a thin dowel that I covered in milliput





the citidel brown paint wouldn't stay on very well so I finally went with testors black

thanks

That is looking great

its now up on the showcase

thanks darth

the white paint on the armour didn't work out very well so I had to go back and redo it in black

That's sweet dude, doesn't even really need paints

bumping this thread back from the dead

I hate to admit it..but I negletcted this thread but I have finished a deathstroke and green goblin figure since then ( which can be found in the showcase) I just wish I took the time to do some WIP pics of them along the way

anyways heres my next little project..

a bothan jedi , im using parts from 3 figures ( anakin, Borsk Fey'lya and Voolvif Monn )I found the voolvif figure at a flea market and while it was missing the head I knew id use it for something sooner or later and it prooved to be just perfect for this, the anakin figure was from the ROTS toy line and it was slightly out of human scale compared to other star wars figures but I think it works great with the larger torso




I just need to get some paints to finish it up. I plan on painting the hair brown and doing some black dry brush and painting the armour bits white. and maybe a hand swap..im not sure yet

Hey Abe...my main man, compadra, man with the plan, Kemo Sabe even! Seeing the group pic, made me

really helpful and very cool!

thanks ken, nah I don't want it to look like a single certain version of red hood..the lines on the helmet were only in the cartoon

Looks Fantastic. One thing though. It looks a little to flat on the top unless that what you are aiming for then its Great :-). Are you going to add lines to the mask or keep it straight Red?

thanks dude..I just added red hood to the custom showcase..he should be up soon

looking great.

grundys been neglected for a bit, I've been focusing on red hood

I do some wood working and usualy cut my hands or bust my knuckles on just about everything I do :P but so far I havent relly been injured working on figures

Lucky! I speared my hand today on a dentist tool finshing up a custom. It was a bloody mess.

thanks dude, luckily this time it was paint

Nice, very clean paint job! I also noticed you have paint on your finger, or is it blood!

I got red hood's head ready to go

hey guys thanks! I havent had a chance to work on him in the past few days but I plan on doing it soon

Grundy is looking very nice. I thought the same thing. Especially after seeing him in Arkham City. Looks fantastic so far.

really liking the use of parts and execution, great job.

Abe...this is gonna be one of your best ! Man, can't wait to see em finished!

thanks guys! im getting closer to having him finished..I hope to have some more pics up soon

So funny, I just got that grey Hulk and the same use occurred to me. This will go nicely with your other awesome Batman pieces. Can't wait to see him finished Abe!

Lookin' good man.

He sure is! He looks awesome! Can't wait too see him finished!

thanks dude! its getting there..

Looks good man!

I started working on a solomon grundy figure ,using the body of grey hulk and the head from another hulk I had.

ts not bane but thanks man

bane is looking great, really awesome work.

thnks man

that death stroke looked awesome when finished. I recognized the base but had to looked hard for a moment cause the base sucked. amazing what a head swap and some new paint will do!

anndddd deathstroke is done..hopfull he'll pop up on the custom showcase soon

thanks

Owl is awesome!

happy halloween! while im sitting around watching old monster movies I thought that it would be a good time to catch up on my WIPS

im still looking for parts for my red hood..but the talon is just about done ( I still want to add some type of knife harness)

in the mean time I wanted to do a deathstroke that fits in with the Chris nolan batman movies, and because im super hyped about him being in the next episode of Arrow.



its a pretty easy custom..I used an avatar movie masters figure .the vest and pants were blue/green camo and the under shirt was green so I repainted them in black and grey and I sculpted the head/helmet.I gotta pick up the paint I need for his helmet tommorow. I also had to mod some hands from another movie masters figure to fit.

glad to hear it, only problem I have with dc hands also.

thanks man! yea theyre actually even better than a DCUC hand since they have that extra hinge

love it, do you still get good articulation out of the war machine hands?

I never found any dcuc hands so I ended up using the extra hands that came with war machine.
I also added th sash thing from a LOTR figue. and decided to paint the gloves and boots black

thanks guys

dude I'm so excited to see this finished!

looking great.

Sweet! Did you ever get my pm about that trade?

thanks guys! I apreciate the comments

I started painting today..

that owl head is looking awesome man

looking great, saw the comics featured on G4.

a couple of updates..

I filled the hole in the back of the torso

and did more work on the talons head
