    Custom ReAction Newt

    I know you guys don't like ReAction figures, but humor me, this is one of the few places I can even come close to posting this. The base figure was an E.T. Gertie. I sculpted the top of the overalls (front and back) and the visible shoulder suspender, hair and repainted the whole thing. Used...

    Colonial Marine paint job

    Trying to paint camo for probably the first time, and trying to get it somewhat screen accurate. Every picture I've seen of screen used BDU's looks different, so I don't know how far or how close I am. The one on the left was done first and has a grey-ish wash to make the BDU's look worn and...

    Terminator Infiltration units

    Base bodies are all Sub Mariner with head swaps. I then drybrushed and washed them with various shades of beige to bring out the muscle definition.

    Suggestions for moving mechanical legs?

    I'm wanting to build a Terminator Arachnid and for that, I need a set of at least four mechanical legs that are preferably somewhat poseable. I'm having a tough time thinking of anything other than a few of the SW Clone Wars "robots". I did find some Bionicles that had four arms and are...

    Beta Midget

    These came out about 10 years ago. Originally Gashapon toys, these were released in Japan and made out of some really crappy plastic. Some parts are o.k., others develop stress fractures and eventually shatter. These were inspired by Micronauts. I actually have lots of these, but not the...

    Maschinen Krieger - no name

    Took long enough, but I finally fixed the dome on this. I wasn't really sure what to do with the overall paint scheme, but it is what it is. I do, of course, plan on doing weathering. Suggestions taken kindly.

    hover sled type vehicle, what are my options?

    What kind of vehicles are out there that are hovering type sleds? It can have little fans in the wings but would need to be something a figure can stand up on but have some sort of control column.

    Scale question

    I know this has been asked a million times before so can we get this "stickied" this time? What would you say the real scale of ME Joes is? I ask because I know a guy who is designing 1:18th items but he's in Germany and doesn't collect or usually build stuff in this scale. I need to pass...

    Ideas for multiple small joints?

    The plan - I planned on taking Obi Shinobis' advice and use 4mm Revoltech joints to add articulation to some figures. The problem - 4mm Revoltech joints are harder to find than hens teeth! There are multiple lots on eBay for random Revoltech joints, but there's no way to tell how many of...

    Possible H.A.C.K.S accessory?

    These are a bit bigger than HACKS figures, but since they are mythical animals, the size shouldn't be an issue. https://www.etsy.com/listing/203883538/cerberus-in-a-can-3d-print-taxidermy?ref=related-2

    Multiple recent customs

    Batman inspired by what was seen in the Batman vs. Terminator short on youtube. Then there's the humanoid robot that I posted in progress a long time ago (could use a name if anyone has a suggestion). And lastly, my Riddick custom. The head is decent, not much to choose from.

    Can someone get me a picture of one or more of the 5 Below BBI soldiers next to a (25th and up) GI Joe? Or better yet, has anyone transferred a BBI head to a GI Joe (25th and up) body?
