Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

Thanks a lot guys. The Jim Lee Batman has been a work in progress for years now. Always trying to find what would work the best.

For now i'm happy with this one and it is along with the Miller Batman my fav of all the ones I have done.

Thanks, The Bat

Hot damn........swampthing is absolute perfection......:thud:
 
Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

Swamp Thing is a master piece. The hair work on Qui Gon Jin is some of the best I have seen. Great work as always Elvis.
 
Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

Elvis, somebody probably asked already, but why do you like Kaustic Plastik bodies so much? Do you think they really look better than other brands?
What are the details that makes you choose for them?

I think its the BULK of the figures that he likes for Superheroes.
 
Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

But other brands like HT doesn't look like that?
KP has much stronger bodies?
 
Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

Well I used them when they look good for what I want to accomplish. That is all.

I'm using all kinds of bodies by all manufacturers. Some fit better than other for different projects.

But when I'm using the KP body most of the time I rework them a lot by rescupting some extra muscles on them.
 
Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

Oh, I see.
I tought you had a preference for KP.

Thanks!

By the way, I'm the guy from facebook that was bothering you about the Naked Snake Tiger Stripe custom, haha!
I'm thinking about getting a KP body for my kitbash so mine can look bulkier and taller like yours.
 
Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•HOTH LUKE•QUI GON JIN•ANAKIN•SWAMP THING

I lowered the head of my Swamp Thing as suggested and it indeed looks way better. Improves the overal shape of the whole body.

Continuing with the texturing. Adding different sorts of plants and vegetations. I also added different shade of green and brown to bring more contrast.

This is my favorite piece you've ever done, Seb... hands down.

Have you considered adding a couple of roses? Maybe from the T-800 set?

Re: Elvis1976 custom's•CHEWBACCA•QUI GON JIN•SWAMP THING•JIM LEE BATMAN

Thanks rich my friend. Yes I have thought about that. Funny thing is that I used that illustration as a main inspiration.

I will definitely add roses.

Do you mind if I base a drawing off of your figure?

The Alan Moore ST run is just about my favorite comic run ever. I wish he never stopped.
