Mortal Kombat - Sub Zero WIP

[Dark Passenger]

This is looking great. Love it.

 

[Headsmith]

Arsyn - That would be awesome! I will take that into consideration. Have you ever seen anyone do anything similar as a reference?

Naw, not directly anyway. I've gotten something similar working on a few scale models by accident(didn't want it at the time), but that's it.

To get more puffy clothes you could sew some foam in between fabric. IMO, I think it looks good the way it is now though.

I vote Ermac!
I don't think Jade would look too good without a seamless body with all that skin showing.

 

[EndoSickness]

Endo - Haven't really thought about making them to sell... but I am open to it. Shoot me a PM if you are really interested, and we can talk about making you a Scorpion.

PM sent...

 

[Buttmunch]

If you are offering these up, I am very tempted. I'd love a good Sub-Zero and Scorpion, maybe Reptile too.

 

[twik25]

Wow, I am amazed how much interest there are in these figures. If people are really this interested in them, I would def. make some in the future. Once I get this one complete, I will let everyone know how much they would be.

Also, on a side note. A little update on me getting the Berserker figure instead of the Royce figure. I ordered the Royce figure from BBTS. What I actually received was a Berserker figure, with a Royce sleeve. It was an honest mistake, and their Customer Service completely took care of me, and have made me a loyal customer in the future. Long story short, I have the Berserker figure with no sleeve, and a new Royce on the way. I haven't decided what to do with the Berserker yet. I could sell it, or I may just keep it since it was essentially free.

definitely keep it since it was free, never pass up a free HT figure...either that or sell it to me for cheap

 

[Buttmunch]

Wow, they really let you keep the Beserker? That is really cool. I suppose if your painting skills are any good you could try to make him into an MK creature. Probably too big for Reptile in any form, but I bet there has to be a guy you could use it on. Or yeah, just sell him cheap without the spine accessory If you sold him at your Royce price, I'm sure you'd get a bunch of takers. And then you got a free Royce and a Sub Zero victim!

But yeah, I seriously am interested in getting a Scorpion and Sub-Zero outfit done by you. And probably Reptile. After that it gets too crazy to finsih off the 'ninjas'

 

[Dark Passenger]

This is awesome man. I really like the mock up of Sub Zero. If the price is right and you do more, I'd love a Scorpion. Reminds me of my younger years.

i agree i would love a scorpion and sub zero if the price i right

 

[Buttmunch]

Sounds like he is going to need a waiting list

EndoSickness - Scorpion
skeemer?
Buttmunch - Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Reptile
Dark Passenger - Scorpion
krec9 - Scoprion, Sub-Zero

 

[twik25]

Buttmunch - Thanks for the list! Well done sir!

Quick update... here are the wrist guards. I haven't painted the buckles yet, not "finished" the look of the straps. I haven't decided if I am going to seal the buckles, or make them actually work. IT IS A PAIN to feed the straps though... The lower strap is elastic, so you can stretch to fit it around the various hands...

Still waiting on the body for final sizing (should be in by Wed), then all I have left are the shinguards and the boots (which, I have no idea how I am going to make... but hey, that is the fun part!). Buttmunch referenced the Red Ninja boots, which are great! I have also been eyeing the Hot Toys Goemon Ishikawa boots, which I think I am going to try my hardest to replicate. See image below (image by plasmid303). I really want to figure out a way to still have the HT TT feet in there for maximum posing).

 

[K.bowen]

looks awsome, if you do decide to start making them for sale id love a SZ set cause my custom sucks atm

 

[Buttmunch]

No problem good sir. Looks like we have an update already!

EndoSickness - Scorpion
skeemer?
Buttmunch - Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Reptile
Dark Passenger - Scorpion
krec9 - Scoprion, Sub-Zero
K.bowen - Sub-Zero

Those wrist guards look fantastic!

 

[EndoSickness]

Wrist guards all hells of awesome, man.
Quick idea, man:
Maybe not only the classics, but how about outfits from Scorpion and Sub-Zero from later on, like MK2, or MK/UMK3/MKT, or even MK:SM.
Played that yesterday and this Scorpion would rock, but I fear I have no screenshot.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

how about a "figure-so-far" picture instead of just the hands, feet, etc...

 

[twik25]

Nick - I'll get my Royce body tomorrow... which means this should be COMPLETE by Sat. I will probably hold off on full body shot till then. I want it to be an awesome reveal of the complete outfit.

Good deal! Can't wait!

 

[EndoSickness]

Can´t wait.
How much did the body cost?
I asked Tim (Twil) this before: don´t you guys think too that a Leonidas body wouldn´t be awesome?
No seems and joints visible?

 

[twik25]

Endo - I purchased the whole Royce figure... so $145 plus $10 for shipping (all USD). I totally agree, the Leonidas body would be amazing!

 

[EndoSickness]

I'm already on the run for a Leonidas body.
So IF I get a Scorpion set from you, Scorpion would have a seemless and perfect body.
Btw: I guess I'll try a classic headsculpt, with sculpted visor and all, what do you think?
