SilentSurfer's Amazon and Samurai Machiko: the Completed Visions.

[SilentSurfer]

I have made further adjustments to both of my Machiko figures. Since this Freaks board only allows ten pics per post, I'm only including the main pics with the links to the onesixthwarriors threads where you can read the full rundown and see all the pics.

But feel free to comment here.

Cool, I like the red paint on the 1st one, and I can't believe you killed an entire alien for the 2nd one. (I like the custom feet too)
They both look great though, but you really need to try and take better shots.
The fuzz hurts my eyes.

Sorry, I dropped my camera at my wedding, and the flash broke, so I have to try to hold still long enough for the shutter to get enough light. Stupid digital camera.

That be some super awesomeness there. Good work. Love that slight red hint on the armor on that first one. Looks way way way better.

I don't usually like custom stuffs, but that's an awesome samurai she-predator you got there, mate!

Hate to ruin the mind set for you, but that's a gray towel tacked up over my bathroom sink.

The swords are from Crazy Owners on eBay. Just do a search for 1/6 (ninja, samurai) sword

Sorry for the necroposting, but how did you go about fashioning the sandals?
And what feet did you use?

Thanks!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Wow, this thread must have been buried deep by now. Glad to see it back even though it's a bit out of date.

The feet are just the regular Hot Angel feet off of the ERT female figure. If the flat footed female Truetype had been availabe at the time, I would have used those, but these work fine with the uneven base despite being meant for heeled shoes.

The sandal netting is just the ends of the sleeves of the AVP Pred netting. Each one had a bit of string hanging off the end, so I carefully cut the big toe apart from the second toe, slipped the end of the sleeve over the foot, pulled the string down between the toes, and used the rubber skirt material as a sandal sole.

It was one of those unplanned, perfect accident things.

As for the feet, I had to cut them off the figure body at the ankle twisting articulation point, dremel out the top to fit the ball socket in Machiko's legs, and pin/glue the ankle to the ball connector. The ball connector still rotates in the calf armor socket, and the pin doesn't go into the foot deep enough to hamper the up and down action of the foot.

Always nice to see some older threads sometimes. When the new stuff comes out, so many people are just all over the same things. We should do like a necropost week every month. Bring back some of the old stuff that made these forums so popular. Where's the threads for the AVP Preds or P2 Preds? Bring them back! LoL

 

[SilentSurfer]

I like that idea. We should just go back a couple dozen pages and grab old stuff and make a new comment on it. You start...

 

[EndIessRAlN]

You got it bro....and DONE.

 

[jkno]

Awesome custom , how did I miss it till now!!

 

[SilentSurfer]

If I ever get one of the ResEvil Sheva bodies, I'll be swaping out Amazon Machiko's arms for the seamless, rubber skin ones. Then she will truly be complete and visually seamless all over.

 

[abake]

Thanks for the tutorial dude!

 

[jaberwaki]

simply amazing work.

 

[RIDDICK]

But yeah, SS works are permanantly awesome.
