My first attempt at figure customing: WIP

Oh well, thought I'd post some pics now that I got camera for a week, don't know if I can finish it this week, hope so. Anyways, I got a cheap Neca Mikey, with missing right hand and nunchakus. Since everything else was there, first thing I did was right hand from that climbing hand, it was rather easy. I just took those spikes off, and sculped the remaining hole to look right.

At that point, I didn't know yet what I wanted to do, but I did know that I was irritated by Mikey's facial expression, and so I changed his mouth a little. Well, this was supposed to become Adventures-series' Future Mikey, but I've always liked Raph more, and he is easier to do, so I made it into him instead. Sculpted some Wrinkles below eyes, and string for eyepatch.

After that I painted his eyepatch, and those arm/legbands, and left it here for weekend, while getting better tools to work on his cap. Also took a camera, and thought I'd make a post outta this.


Also took a size comparison pic of my next project, which is much bigger, I need to sculpt him new legs, hands, tail, torpedotubes....And paint much more. Well, here it is anyway, no idea how I'll manage it, but I think I'll have fun doing it.
