    Tofujesse Castings: Announcements & Discussion

    I just realized the other main thing that Gnawgahyde is missing is his bow and arrows... Jesse, I know you cast that folding compound bow because you sent me one, but have you considered casting the Shadow Tracker/POC Spirit bow and quiver of arrows? Both those damn figures are hard as shit to...

    Finally got around to painting up the boar I got from Jesse. Now Gnawgahyde has his pet!

    Just dropped a $60 or so order... Your sale worked, I just grabbed anything I could foresee using. ;) $1 a head for some of those is a steal, considering if I need the heads down the road, I need to buy a $10 figure for parts.

    Custom Figure Painting Tutorial by MIKED

    Slaymaker, for any customs I'm working on, if it's a color that will likely chip and need retouching, or is a common color that I'll reuse again (like common Hasbro flesh tones or colors for camo, etc.) I'll usually mix and save small vials of paint. You'll need some small vial that can be...

    Actually, I just saw the updated front post. All of those webgear items would be sick to get casts of :)

    Tofujesse Castings: Announcements & Discussion

    Selling the holster separately would work for me, since I need about 5 of the damned holster for less than $3 or whatever 'Spoon charges, plus the webgear by itself. I just didn't see it on the site. :thumbs up: That way, if you need just the holster, then awesome! If you need the holster and...

    The A11s will fit on the 30th helmet, although it'll take a little work to get them to stay on. Probably just heat them, slide them on, and they should stay. If I'm not mistaken, A11 is the Shock Trooper goggles. (KT?) Jesse, has anyone sent you the Bazooka Trooper webgear to cast? That'd be...

    Custom Figure Painting Tutorial by MIKED

    Yup, thanks MIKED, and thanks XOC for posting/converting it to the front page. It's a great tutorial, and works for both 4" (1:18th, cough) and 6" scales. (The figure shown does in fact use a 1:18th MU figure).

    Haha, thanks MIKED. I saw your PM, was going to respond to you once I figured out what to do. We'll try and set up some sort of version of it, I'll talk to Cloud about it. It's a great painting tutorial.

    Am I a news bitch?!? :D DO YOU SEE THE "INTEL" PATCH BY MY NAME? *cries*

    I think you did a tutorial on eye-painting at some point... Maybe I'm wrong, I'll have to look into your site more to refresh my memory. But if you wouldn't mind doing a tutorial or letting us promote it, I'm sure we could front-page it and it'd be a huge helper to customizers and casters alike...

    Glad to see you here, MIKED. I loved your stuff I saw at HissTank. Hopefully we'll see you posting more around these parts!

    StarWarsGeek custom casts

    Man, that is a decent sculpt of RDJ. I'll have to look into the sculpt and why it was cancelled... Other than the fact that Hasbro always produces a bazillion versions of shit figures in the early waves, then either barely distributes or cancels the good stuff slated for later waves... :-\

    Fighting 1:18th project

    Six lifetimes, not 4 years. Get it right, dicks. http://x4.ofgraphicdesign.com/projects/sarge/slaughter_boxart.jpg The Sarge one I did like 5 years ago. It's meh, but yeah, I do believe that either the artist or Hasbro suggested mine as a referential pose for the official art. No proof...

    I'm not being a "know-it-all" here, (That's for HT ;)) but I think KT and I discussed what was what somewhere else, maybe in this thread, and we think that you don't have the Dusty goggles posted... A11 - Shock Troopers - (Have this one, will fit atop a helmet, specifically the 30th blueshirt...

    Tutorial: Creating Dio Walls from Foam

    If I had two left arms, I guarantee you I wouldn't spend my time at the Post Office. I'd likely double up on my pornin'. ;)

    Tutorial: Creating Dio Walls from Foam

    ^^This. Although, being left-handed, if I had 2 left arms I'd get twice as much shit done, so that'd be awesome in my case. $20 investment, and as long as you have space to work, you should get your money's worth out of it with just a few simple tools.

    I had some minor flashing. Nothing bad. The heads were almost all clean, save for maybe the neck holes/bottom areas that may need a little knife work or dremeling (this should be mandatory work for half of all customs, if you ask me, regardless of fit straight out of the mold), and MAYBE a...

    Tofujesse Castings: Announcements & Discussion

    Keep in mind, that was a VERY nitpicky comment. Take it with a grain of salt. I'm just responding for those people who I've seen over the years who don't get that they won't be getting 100% factory pieces. They'll likely require some paint, maybe some trimming here and there. (Generally...
