hot toys Pred 1 to Elder pred 2 ?

[monkeybat]

Seeing as most of us cant afford a Elder pred from Pred 2 and the 1987 Pred is defunct(use classic instead).
Could anyone come up with a way to convert the old Pred 1 to the elder ?
He was the original Pred modified in Pred 2 anyway.

the head and accessories are gunna be the pain. the dreds need to be a grey/blue color, needs a piercing on his mandible, and then a full body repaint/re deco, honestly HT will redo this eventually so id just hang in there and wait

That looks reak tricky, where did you start?

 

[georgieboy26]

made a cast of the head, made dreads from sculpty clay and painted, glued to head, added beads, molded some clay onto brow of head and shaped creases, added rough boney bits around head and mouth using sculpty, added quills/whiskers, reshaped bottom mandibles/teeth a little, then painted head, added ring peice, made snake belt with leather and snake heads with sculpty, made sword in steel, scabbard in leather, added bone type handle with sculpty, added bits n pieces to necklaces, added leather straps to groin area and armpieces, made a boney rib shape thingy to add to pouch, also added light up feature in cannon and made a laser sight for top of cannon, not shown on this pic(non working just for realism) modified a flintlock from a 1/4 jack sparrow figure,... many fun hours involved.....some not so fun..lol.....made a couple more and sold em
