The Crazy Customs of Coco

Re: Cocoboloboy's Crazy Customs

The Jabba steps addition to the throne is just cool. And the custom Batman wall mounts are ace mate. Will have to use that idea for some of my custom work. Beats the regular shelving that can be done.

Great work from figs to mounts.

sweet mother of pearl................those batman shelves are amazing coco. is that some kind of faux finish on wood? beautiful they look like a marble or some granite type finish. im assuming a 1/6th batman (or 2) is going on them, do you know?

Re: Cocoboloboy's Crazy Customs

Nicely done! I'm planning to do something like that for my PF figures. Kudos!!

Re: Cocoboloboy's Crazy Customs

Thanks moxie, kuato,steeljedi and barryo! :

That's a textured finish with a gray paint and black glaze barryo. They are wooden stands measuring about 7.5" wide and 12" tall made to hold 2 or 3 of the 6" DC figures.

Thanks barryo! I made it out of purple felt. It's the prototype. I'm working on one that's a little narrower(pic below). It will have a better fit and not look so big.

Here's the third try at my custom Joker hat. I'll try a wider brim as suggested by MaulFan on the fourth one.

Pics of the V2 Joker sculpt and factory hat with Les' Joker and my custom hat:

Thanks! I'm sooo glad I was not only able to get one but two of Les' incredibly cool Joker heads.

Wow man... That is fantastic. Not only is the hat very well made and stunning, but those shelves are too badass for words. You rule man. Great work all around.

That latest Joker hat looks quite good. A big improvement over that "little old lady" hat that came with the figure.

Re: Cocoboloboy's Crazy Customs

I'm sure V4 will be perfect. Even though it looks simple, you really have done a good job on that hat. No seams or loose bits. Very impressive.

Re: Cocoboloboy's Crazy Customs

Fantastic job, version 3 is perfect already!

The combination of that and Les' paint job is how the original V2 Joker should have been. I really love how Les made one eyebrow higher than the other.

Re: Cocoboloboy's Crazy Customs

Thanks chapuchi! But I've improved it I think and this will be the final version. Here it is:
