First attempt at customizing

[Fading]

Didn't have work today so thought I'd go ahead and buy some acrylic paint, but got the cheap stuff from Walmart (tho it did work perfect, no problems at all, and feels almost like plastic after it dryed).

First sry for the camera, my $80 digital camera sucks for some unknown reason, and my webcam can take better pics than it tho it may be the lighting (even tho the camera has a flash). Anyway these are the best pics I have now. Second I know their not great lol, but first time trying.

I wanted a good Wolverine but the best one I've seen yet was Brown costume Wolverine, but I wanted the 90's Wolverine look so I repainted him -

Next was the one I wanted far more lol, a good Magneto. I never got the ML Magneto tho I did want to. Anyway I saw on Jin's site about him using the DC superhero Superman for his Magneto, and I did the same. I took the bubble collar thing off of the AoA Sabertooth (pain, but I don't care for that AoA Sabertooth anyway lol), then a simple repaint, followed by using Prof X's Cerebro helm and shaping it a bit to fit his head and repainting. Not a terrific helm but best I had on hand, but it fits surprisingly well. -

Finally is my least favorite I did lol, Scarlet Spider. Nothing against the character, but I ran out of red paint while I was doing his second leg. I ended up having to go with orange for now until next time I'm in Walmart to get another jar of it. I used the...heck I forget which Spiderman it is lol, anyway the one that comes with that action feature to throw disks thats still currently in stores. Anyway -

Now all I have left to do is mess with AoA Sabertooth. Not sure what I want to turn him into as I can't think of anything, but I only bought him for the Giant Man part so oh well lol. Anyway like I said nothing great, but surprised myself for my first attempt.

aoa sabretooth makes a great magneto just FYI

 

[Kable24]

Not bad

I don't know why......Why Cerebro seemed like a good Magneto Helm....the rest was great.

 

[Cyclops]

The gloss factor is a bit too high, but overall, they're pretty darn good.

Lol, well it's not that it seemed like it'd be a good Magneto helm as much as just having nothing else for one. I finished painting Magneto and then started to look around for something to use as a helmet, I overlooked the Cerebro twice because I didn't think it'd work and eventually broke down and used it.

Like Cyke said the gloss is a little much but nice overall.

Thos are cool!

Ya they are a bit glossy.

BTW went ahead and turned AoA Sabertooth into Cyber. May not be the best custom, but def an improvment on AoA Sabertooth lol, and after I cut the sideburns and all it actually fit nicely.

The paints still drying and gonna work on his face a little more but that's more or less close to finished. The arms took quite a few silver coats, but his fingers moving independently works well since Cyber had claws coated with drugs. Basically just blue, silver, then white on the eyes and mouth, and cutting off his sideburns and pulling out the ponytail. -

Nice. Cyber was one vicious mofo. Makes sense using a Sabes for him.

Lol one last one. I did this one after I put Turkey in this morning to take to relatives house. I have to wait on it anyway so did it in under an hour. Took a ML mister fantastic and made a Flash. Needless to say this is my last custom, atleast for a long time lol. 4 in 2 days burnt me out on it, fun to do but don't feel like doing it again for awhile. BTW didn't have any yellow lightning bolts to attach to the side of his head, I can always finish that later if I find anything to do it with. -

cyber is a cool idea for sabes, but maybe a bit small
and it wont look quiet right unless you dremeled lines all around his arms to make them look like they are metal
