Monkeyman to strong guy?

Posted in Custom Workstation

I was just wondering do you guys feel that monkey man is an appropriate base to make a huge strong guy figure? I've been thinking about making him in his x-factor costume and using juggernauts head and boots,or making a brand new sculpt from the monkeyman head since the socket where the head meets the neck is massive. Lemmi know what you guys think. Some suggestions or help are appreciated!

I think it's very feasible bro. There is a guy in the custom showcase who turned MM into a cartoon-style Hulk.
Try checking it out. You might get something useful there.

hmmm, the head is still questionable atm, but wit the feet I may use series 6 juggernaut since I have a spare, and depending on how hey connect, I'll use them. I'm very prepared for the amount of work for this custom but I feel it should be fun. Thanks for the suggestions, if you've got anymore ideas, hit me up

Seems feasible. Though Monkeyman would definitely need some chest bulking. His legs are hollow so they'd probably stay the same size. Everything else seems alright. I would think reworking a Pitt BAF head or similar would be better than trying to use Monkeyman's. A reworked Icon Hulk or random 1/6 head may work as well. What would be your plan for the feet as Monkeyman's are on a ball joint? Lots of sculpting, dremeling, and sanding may be needed here.
