1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

[TonTon]

Damn, chilipep! That looks outstanding.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yes, entire figure is amazing, Chili. And pretty incredible transformation on that sculpt. The real hair is key on River.

Bleeding chin is the perfect touch.

 

[Scifi67]

That's an amazing young Indy, well done! Maybe Spenser could give this a go after Short Round.

 

[Luisenigma1]

Nice young Indy! He turned out great though the boots are not accurate as he wasn't wearing Aldens, medicom got that wrong on theirs.

 

[Mr.E]

Excellent work, Chili!

I’d love to find something more properly scaled for the smaller build too, I’ll be on the hunt to change those out soon

Thanks for the kind words guys!

 

[FlyAndFight]

Fantastic figure, chilipep66!

I wish a company would revisit this figure/character.

I've been looking for this figure for years but the few available were going for crazy numbers.

 

[IndianaPaul]

Wow, that Young Indy is stunning! Next level, one of a kind awesome. Absolutely amazing.

 

[davejames]

Agreed, fantastic work on that Young Indy! Hopefully I can get around to modding mine as well someday.

 

[TonTon]

Wow, that Young Indy is stunning! Next level, one of a kind awesome. Absolutely amazing.

That sums it up. Hard to believe the two figures share a single part.

thanks so much guys! here is a link to the DID shirt i used

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-6-Scale-...uTn5F%2FYg%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc

and pants from this set

https://www.ebay.com/itm/DID-80139-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649


at first i was concerned the colors wouldnt quite match up, but it turns out the slightly darker pants is screen accurate, so it was a happy accident!

 

[Wor-Gar]

I've seen those brown shoes with the stitching across the toe that River is wearing somewhere. I'm going to keep my eyes open for them for you.

Skip the sunglasses.


EDIT:


So I found a couple that might work... but you might keep searching DiD WWI (or II) boots or shoes, a better pair may surface.

Here's the links:

DiD Capt Miller -- the color is wrong and the toe might be too big, but real laces and toe stitch







https://www.ebay.com/itm/DID-DRAGON-IN-DREAMS-1-6TH-SCALE-WW1-U-S-AMERICAN-INFANTRY-BOOTS-WRAPS-BUCK/133317246733?hash=item1f0a53bf0d:g:bpMAAOSwVkBeJJbJ


DiD Infantry -- great color, but the toe stitch may look a little cheap







https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-6-Scale-DID-D80127-WWII-German-Gunner-Ver-C-Curtis-Brown-Ankle-Boots/333822903612?epid=6016620606&hash=item4db965453c:g:V9AAAOSwKzVdDk3g


DiD German gunner -- again good color but the material looks a little suede-like

 

[davejames]

Nice find with those boots Wor-Gar! I went ahead and ordered that second pair for mine, since they already seem like a huge improvement and I can't imagine finding anything better.

I think I can probably live with the rest of the Medicom outfit though. It just needs to be dyed a bit darker and have those giant shirt buttons replaced. I'm using a Luke body and the outfit seems to fit really well on that.

 

[dwing]

Yes, excellent work wor-gor on hunting down the parts. Love this hobby.

 

[chilipep66]

Thanks so much for those tips Wor! Coming in clutch. Another alternative is the star ace McQueen boots, but they are sculpted.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Glad you guys found it helpful.

Chili: Those Star Ace shoes look great actually. Maybe you can make the stitching yourself somehow or just paint it on.

 

[Mr.E]

The McQueen boots have a unique to StarAce ankle connection fyi. You'll most likely need to modify them to fit. They might look a little large for the "youth" body size though, after examining them in person.

 

[chilipep66]

Size Is the main problem with all of these unfortunately. Modding the joint is no problem though. I’ll let y’all know when they arrive what the verdict is!

 

[dwing]

Since we are talking Young Indy, what body would work using the Medicom clothes. I was thonking the https://www.ebay.com/itm/HeadPlay-N...rentrq:81c6f12d1760a4b4d31787ecfff6323c|iid:1
