Piecing together a Matrix Neo

I was looking at the body for a larger figure. What is the "ankle mod"?

There are some ankle extensions that make it exceedingly tall, and in my opinion, make the body out of proportion (legs too long). There's a pretty easy fix, though. There's a tutorial on youtube:

Wow Marf! Beautiful bash as always... you really are a master of the futz!

So what rig are you using on him? Looks badass

Thanks GB I'm using Stevo's rig, it's not 100% accurate as some have mentioned, but I'm really happy with it!

Looks great... I guess I'll see how SMcG's turns out before making a final decision.

I've got most of the pieces together thanks to ShortRound's sales... but sill need the rig and boots.

I'm sure SMcG's will look fantastic, he takes some serious pride in his work. It may end up being more accurate than Stevo's for a fraction of the price

Congrats for jumping on ShortRound's sale, he had all the essentials for excellent prices. The boots should be done soon, hopefully!

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, I bought what I needed from the that sale, then he offered me the guns he'd collected. Even though I was dragging my feet and missed out on a few pieces I lucked out

Very awesome Neo, Marf.

[agonistes86]

Thanks you guys! I finally got around to wiring the "new" v.2 coat so I thought I would snap an updated pic

That Neo looks beautiful, Dane. Can't wait to finally complete my Neo too.

Thank you Yannick, wouldn't have happened without this thread and the shared knowledge you brought together

By the way, I'm becoming increasingly aware of how talented you are through periodic peeks into your collection thread (I love your Freddy repaint)...very impressed! You should start your own thread in this section.

Looking great marf. I still need to get a head for mine.

 

[Artoo]

That is one slick Neo, great work Marf!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Is that the new Traid coat, the v.2.5? Looks good there, thought it was the older one.

 

[drjedisith]

ahh finally the new coat reveal! looks awesome man

Thanks man, I really appreciate that.
I might start my own custom thread when I finish my first complete custom, so far everything is still WIP. The Batman isn't far off though, and I've almost got all the pieces coming to me to make the Freddy.

Thanks again guys

That actually is the older 2.0 version, I just meant it was "new" because it's replacing the 2.5

ahh finally the new coat reveal! looks awesome man

Thank man!

The Batman isn't far off though

I'm in love with that thing

Is there a way to tell the difference between a 2 and 2.5? I wasn't even aware there was a 2.5 until a couple days ago.

The 2.5 uses a different fabric that is a bit thicker, the sleeves are longer as is the trench-coat in general. Shorty was selling the v2 though I think (the one I'm using in those pics) so if you bought from him, I believe that's the version you got.
