Here's the newest update on mine. I repainted the head, changed the hat color, changed the holster belt a little and redid the straps on the back of the jacket.

Awesome... I've got to ask (and anyone else feel free to chime in on this one) did you do anything to get the arrow to fit into the hole of the torch?... There's no way that mine'll stay/fit unless I carve it up a bit.


I had to stick a knife in the molded slot to actually make a hole that the arrow would fit and stay in.
 
I got my new TT body in the mail last week and switched Indy over to it. Then I noticed that the pant's, shirt and jacket were all a little bit to short.

The jacket and shirt sleeves were actually the biggest problem. So now I went and switched him back to the pro body just to get the gear to look right.

Is there a way to make the jacket and shirt fit better on the TT body?
 
I love looking through everyone's photos. Some great poses here! :whip:gun

I was tinkering a bit at the weekend (if fiddling with a figure in your time off from... fidding with other figures, counts as spare time!)

Anyway... not finished yet... way more futzing to be done... weathering on the jacket to be done.. maybe some stitching work, ...and stuff like the belts to be upgraded somehow.

But i've changed the front of the shirt, given it some subtle colouring and sweat (i want it to be 'invisible weathering'), dusted and weathered the shoes, same with the trousers, done a tiny bit on the holster.. but not a lot yet... repainted the hat, and glued my neck in place (well... not MY neck.. but you know what i mean :lol) and sculpted a solid neck around it. I just put the hat back on and put it on the figure for these photos and to see what it looks like.

I can't wait to paint it now :rock (although that will probably be next weekend)

I agree, looks far better than the double jointed neck. I'd planned to do this to mine, if he ever gets here ! Would you have any pics of the head on its own ?
 
By the way, Darren, what material did you use to sculpt the neck. I'd love to try this mod myself for a Temple of Doom Indy I'm working on.

Strange, the clothes fit fine on my TT. Did you trim down the pegs on the SS hands to make them fit?
 
Yep.....


I trimmed the hand pegs down and they fit in the TT body perfectly. Actually, everything worked out great except for the shortness of the shirt, jacket and pants.

Now I may have had the pants up a tiny bit to high and to be honest I didn't think they looked short where they were at in the pics. Heck, you can't pose the Pro legs in a sitting position without the pants rising and showing his bare legs some....


Now the body I'm using is the brand new TrueType 38 Caucasian figure.

What TT body are you using? Maybe this new body is a little bit bigger than the others. :confused:
 
Yeah, I'm using the 38 as well and it just so happens I bought it at Toy Toyko too. The pants don't ride up much even when the legs are fully bent. The sleaves ride a little when the arms are bent but to me it still looked pretty good. In your picture with the arm whipping, the sleave does seem to ride a little low. I'll have to check mine when I'm home tomorrow. It's possible that I just didn't notice it.
 
Let me know if yours does the same thing. IF it doesn't then maybe I didn't really get the shirt and jacket on the body the right way? :confused:

By the way.....The little elastic loop that's on the bottom of Indy's shirt, is that really needed?
