1/6 MOLA RAM Custom Project

Looks great. Will just need very little dying on the body.

I've got the chocolate brown synthetic RIT ready, though I guess I need some kind of pot to cook it up in -- don't want to use the ones I use for food.

Wanted to be sure I liked the body with the outfit first, though now I'm scared to take it all apart. This is the Vin Diesel body that davejames tried out. It's big and has weird ankle pegs, but I think the size works well with the sculpt and outfit (only the hook is too tight).

Once it's all to my liking the outfit will definitely benefit from some double-sided tape on the shoulders to help keep it in position.

Look forward to seeing it.

Got the Spenser outfit today, pretty awesome after getting it futzed. Definitely needed that instruction video, would have been completely lost without it.

YEAH!!! That looks great! Everything really comes together well. Its fun to have him on the shelf, isn't it?

Now you have both the JX and the Dominic bodies and decided that the Dominic is better.

 

[davejames]

Looks great TonTon! Glad to hear you're liking that body too, even if does make for a much tighter fit.

I finally made a bit of progress on mine and got the head and body painted up. Although I still need to make the body match the head a bit closer in color.





And this probably gives a better sense of the color without the detolf lights. It was kinda tricky figuring out what his skin tone should be, but I think I'm fairly happy with where I ended up (bearing in mind that I'm very pale in comparison. Lol)

wow davejames, that looks remarkable! Which body did you use for your build?

 

[davejames]

Thanks guys.

I'm using the Art Figures Boss Dominic Body. A bit on the large side, but seems to works well with this sculpt and outfit.

 

[seniram6]

Thanks guys.

did you repaint the body at all or is that the base tone?

 

[davejames]

I darkened it with some light washes of brown paint and then brushed some chalk pastel over that to fine-tune the color. But it still needs a bit of work.

Thanks, guys! Awesome to have everything in hand. Still some work to do but that's part of the fun. Went with the Dominic for the size despite some of the oddities. Think it'll look good. One I got came with the sculpt so it ended up being somewhat cheap after selling that off.

Looks great, davejames! Solid paint-up as usual and looks like you're pretty much there with the color match.

The hook ended up a bit tight so I just left it unhooked and covered that with the sash.

Spoke with Deniz and should have tracking # Mon/Tue. Then I need to order the necklace set. Received my boots in and will be using for both Mola and my custom Ardeth Bey (the Mummy) figure.

 

[Rzeznikk]

Yeah these all look really great guys! Makes me wish I had a spot for one! If I had an angry Indy sculpt I'd totally go for a Broken bridge fight diorama !

Those boots look great Dwing! I ended up just using some cheap old Sideshow boots for mine, since it gets the job done well enough and I can barely make out what they look like in the movie anyway.

Those look good. I was considering those and the similar TLJ Luke boots for a while. Are they one molded piece?

 

[dwing]

Yeah, one piece. I needed new boots as I used all my stock for other projects. These where pretty cheap and really fir the bill.
