Terminus machete!!! Looks great

I guess Widow's hair looks flatter and sleeker there than in most pics I see

PM incoming on your shield repaint

"No point in begging, right?" "no"

I love how the line in the first episode wasn't just a throw-away. I had a feeling things were going to come full circle for ol' Gareth.

Sorry, back on topic.

As far as Widow's hair, I have futzed with it a bit. It was kind of crunchy when I first took her out of the box but after trying to "style" it for a while, it became softer and more pliable, if that makes sense. Almost like I worked the product out of it. I'll reply to your PM right now.

 

[PopCultKid]

Thanks brother

Did you do anything to either Cap's or WS's height, or are they the same size out of the box?

I know some didn't like the disparity between GA and the prior Caps so they swapped the long foot pegs for standard ones

 

[FullMetalHippie]

Nope, both are stock from the box. I'm making another Winter Soldier figure. I just bought the WS body and pants that include all of the weapons. I'm going to use the new Dredd jacket and masked sculpt for the "blow up Nick Fury's SUV scene" look. Just have to figure out a good pose while holding the remote mine gun.

Thought I posted this last night. Finally able to use my custom die cast shield. Looks much better on Bucky than Cap, IMO.

That looks awesome! I had been thinking of picking up a diecast shield to battle damage for a Winter Soldier, and now I really want to do that.

Too lazy to post a "do it" gif, so...DO IT!

It's a lot easier to do than you think. I'm no customizer but I gave it a shot and it turned out. Anyone want to volunteer their shield for a tutorial video? Or I could just try it on my Titan Cap's shield.

 

[skizzoid]

I think you mentioned what you did before, but I was thinking of a matte clearcoat (got some Tamiya lying around for my Cap shield) followed by drybrushed black paint. Is that close to what you did?

 

[Rambler]

shipping soon email!!

That's pretty much it. I also use a lint free cloth to wipe away excess paint and to give it the outward "spray" effect it has. I keep a corner of it damp to lighten certain areas. Pretty simple.

You are now. Looks fantastic, I'm definitely doing this once I pick up a WS figure. This is the shield that should come with the two pack, not the one with little bits of red in it.

 

[spekerol]

cofphoto the great thing about that shield is the fact, it is exactly ballistics wise what would happen when that grenade that was fired at Cap point blank from the winter soldier.

 

[FullMetalHippie]

Thanks cof. Appreciate the compliment.

What do you guys think of this 1/6 Barret for The Winter Soldier? going to paint it black and Weather it first. It is from a very old Dragons military weapons set I had in storage.

I believe FMH has been saying it needs an arrowhead muzzle braze?

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

The gun looks cool.. I want to see that bashed Cap you have there!

Yeah I know but this is fine with me without going to go through ebay looking for the exact rifle.
