Beyond the Event Horizon Customs and Bashes by The_Darkness_Predator

Love what you are doing with your Ephant - I'm still soldiering on with my Amanaman build, which is a nightmare of magnets and embedded joints (on a figure where there's nowhere to hide them).

Sorry to butt in in your thread DP, but if DR can't sew, you can always just do a cut/glue like I did on my Ree Yees coat. I just cut up two of those WWII floatation/pilot vests (fairly available on ebay or military 1/6 sites) and glued them together with fabric glue or super glue, then painted liberally. I'm terrible and slow at sewing, so gluing together garments sometimes works.

This pic shows some of the seams that I just glued:

That all looks great! Of course, thanks for the courtesy but ?Please share... I want anybody to feel free to comment and post pictures here. My wife and I often Use either Fabric-Tac (grabs fast but glossy) or liquid stitch (slower to grab but flat/matt).

I have something similar and that was my plan. 2 of the same jacket is what I picked up after seeing the Ree-Yees section in Chakaman?s thread. Just trying to plan out where to start chopping things up. Gluing has always been my go-to until I brave the sewing machine (eventually) hehe. I have a bottle of Fabri-tac on standby as well
Much appreciated guys

Thanks for sharing the recipe once again Steven! You're really helping me in particular out! I've been trying to figure his outfit out and this is the key! Cheers my friend!

From the paint jobs to the backgrounds... Simply wonderful!! Great stuff Mati and Steven!!!

That looks great Steven. Awesome execution on this figure. I'm always blown away by your treatment of the background characters!

Just AMAZING skills. Love seeing your custom work.

 

[D.R.37]

Nice!

Pretty slick. I don’t recognize her, but she looks cool.

 

[Cagoda]

That custom is amazing!! Did you tailor the clothes yourself? It all looks professionally done!

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

Thanks so much everyone.

With my limited skills, I have to be really creative. I used existing 1/6 clothing for that particular character but in many layers.

I?m working on my Ree Yees now! I?ll post progress pics soon! Thanks for the info Steven!!

Awesome! Love seeing the custom alien characters.

Here is an non-Star Wars alien I just finished.




I am painting a TFA alien tonight.

This should be interesting. Like the non SW alien, as well. Very colorful outfit, and that head is really cool.

 

[Chakaman]

Very nice!

 

[slikkerias]

Outstanding!

 

[D.R.37]

Very cool!

 

[Hoody999]

Yes totally cool.

Which TFA alien is that ? Got a reference pic perhaps ?

Thanks so much everyone.

I hope I can make it look similar to this...
