1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

[The Rogster]

Idk why it has to flip my pics but I got his gun belt today!

I agree regarding the hat. I have the treasure hunter sculpt and while I do like the head sculpt, the hat is too narrow at the sides and back. Looks as if his head came to a point underneath the hat. I wish there was a replacement hat that would look better. I'm just not ready to start purchasing a half-dozen in the hopes of finding the right one.

I think the MJ Choi hat looks great on the Treasure Hunter sculpt.

I have started cropping my pictures and uploading the new image on here and it seems to keep the picture the right way up.

That’s better. I adjusted the image size. This one didn’t flip.

Keep messing around with this KOTCS Indy, did some work on the shirt color over the weekend.

I think he looks absolutely fantastic Ton Ton. Have this spare head myself but haven't committed to building the Crystal Skull Indy......yet. Your figure is certainly showing me how well it works.

He looks ace, everything looks just right.

It's not a Raiders hat though, or really any of the movie hats really, it's a fedora, but that's about it. I put the spare SSC hat on mine, from certain angles it looks ok, but it's a bit big for the head. Now, there are recasts of the SSC head around, if one had a separate hat.....

LOL, they're all copying the SSC TOD sculpt now, Trev's, aside from originals, is nowhere to be seen!

It does seem strange that nobody seems to have the clothing on here or knows anyone that has the clothing. Maybe they are still working on finishing a set!

I actually was the first who had it made by them. But sadly the outfit was oversized in terms of jacket and pants where like samurai pants those very baggy type. Sold the jacket to Timemeddler and I still have the pants, and I'm currently using the shirt until I get something better.

I'm sure I could think of worse things... but be daring and try the tiniest bit of glue and place it back. That is, if you still have the button.

I have a v1 Kato shirt and I replaced all his tab buttons with more realistic scaled buttons... all with a tiny dab of glue.

That's the issue the button is lost. Don't know when or where it fell off.

For anyone who is lost, here?s how the Geewhiz Indy Outfit would look like:

I was searching one day, stumbled on a picture, sent an email to inquire about it but the price was very over my budget..

I should have known that you would have it Luis!
I like the baggy pants look on my Indy. Could you post some pictures of them and also would you consider selling them?

Sorry to hear that.

One day, you will get a set that you deem worthy. One day. But I bet it won't be a "set" of clothing. You will have to piecemeal the best parts individually. Its the only way.

Oh no. Sorry to hear this too. Is this on the new Kato shirt? His old short had plain old tabs which needed replacing anyway. His new shirt I think has better buttons. They are stitched though, so strange that it came off.

I suppose you could reach out to Kato to see if he has any spares buttons. If not, covering the missing one with your bag strap seems like the best option. If its a pocket, you could make it look like Indy just opened that one. OR if you use the shirt with a jacket, remove one of the buttons from the shoulder tabs as a replacement. If its a shirt for Cairo Indy, then its a problem.

I lost one of the buttons on my Iris shirt about two minutes after taking it out of the box. Thankfully I had some very similar little stick on buttons that I had from a craft store. I painted it to match up and now you couldn't tell it was a different button. With things like buttons, glasses or hats at this scale I find it is always best to assume they are going to break or get lost and have some kind of back up in place. Things I drop on the floor usually turn up again years later after I have forgotten all about them.

Hey bud, thanks for the reminder! I was trying to remember who I bought that jacket from!

It is a little oversized, but it?s made from real leather and I really like it:

Looks okay with some weathering and the right body/head. Nice job, TM.

It was from the new Kato pants. It's the left pocket which I can cover with the satchel bag. I'm still using the Geewhiz shirt. Lol

The worst thing has just happened to me. One of the buttons on my Kato pants fell off.

If it's one of the stud type buttons, you can get a replacement from here:

Or if it's one of the buttons with holes, I've got some little wooden buttons I got from the following site:

https://www.minidolls.com/showpage.php?pageID=buttons

They have miniature wood round buttons 3/4 down the page. I have some of the 2 and 1.5 mm buttons. The 2 mm ones would be the best as the 1.5 ones are really tiny and appear slightly thick with the smaller diameter.

To fix it up, you'd just need to paint the buttons and either sew them on or use fabric or super glue. If you want to give it a go, just let me know, I can send some your way.

Paul to the rescue! Riding that white horse... with appropriate pad.

Oh, the pants. That sucks, I know, because of the price... but truth is -- no one will ever know. Not even you one day.

When you look at this pic:



The GeeWhiz outfit looks very accurate to me, particularly the cut of the pants. It's the first time I've actually seen 1/6 ones that look right. Shame it's pricey.

Ha ha, you know that's right...
