Hey guys so this is a figure I have been wanting to tackle for some time now and I just recently got all the parts I needed to make it happen. I did take some inspiration from Seb and his awesome gambit and I also used a lot of the ideas I had floating in my head. I wanted a more comic/realistic look to him and I am pleased with what I came up with nailed the colors. I used the origins head but added glowing eyes and a leather face cover. For his cards I wanted something cool so I printed my own cards and then I used hot glue to style his flames and tinted it all purple when it was done. I also added wire to the trench coat so that it can look like it is flowing. Anyway take a look and let me know what you think!

yep got it from seb lol...I was looking for ever on what to use and IDK where he finds stuff sometimes but he does. His work really is amazing!
 
Great job. If I may suggest something: It would look cooler if you weathered the edges and ridges of the chest armor with a dark pastel. Not a lot, just enough to bring more definition and so it looks less plasticky (less MaryKay-ish:D)

Agreed

Amazing job though LOVE the head and the flaming card hand!
 
thx for all the comments guys! I think it is the way that the camera took the pics on the pink though. It really isn't as bright as it seems but I can try weathering it a bit as suggested :)
 
Nice! The whole custom is cool, but I really like the mask. Are the pink strips on his pants styrene?
 
wow. btw, do you have any pic with the light-up eyes setup?
 
like where did you put the led bulb, battery, and switch.
i'm currently making a custom and i'm planning to give it light-up eyes. but i can't seem to finish it because i don't know anything about electronics. lol.
