| Saw someone posted their guns, so figured maybe it'd be ok if I showed off a little bit of the tinkering I've been doing recently with figure design. I've made a lot of progress on skin tones that I used to be really bad at, had to learn about muting with shades of green when mixing shades. So I dumped a ton of time into some Aliens themed pieces for my shelf. AvP Dutch Schaefer, based on his arcade game appearance. An official toy was made, but I decided to heavily retool and rework him to look more like his movie counterpart. - Spoiler:
Colonial Marines Smart Gunner; This one was a lot of fun, he's actually made from the spare parts of the retail AvP Dutch and had a lot of custom tooling I had to do. Making the chest armor from scratch was interesting. - Spoiler:
For laughs I ended up attempting to make myself since I had a head that seemed similar. - Spoiler:

| This was really cool! I like how they came out and looked. One time I wanted to get a custom action figure of myself made because my hobby skills suck, but I never could afford to commission anyone to make one. Kudos to your dedication on a not so easy hobby! +1 from me to you for sharing! _________________ |

| Depending on what it is you're trying to get made I have a few part bins I can dig through and see if I can hammer out an affordable commission. My schedule for doing them is a little more freed up after finishing up an extension Fortnite project for a customer. |

Very kind of you, but this was long ago when I played a Online Game called Urban Dead I had a military character based off myself in a Zombie Apocalypse. I would have wanted a figure based off that character. Fun Fact my little Avatar in my profile is based off that character LOL. But I have since retired from that game. _________________ |

| I envy people who customize figures, they look awesome, you did a great job. I've never wanted to touch my figures (If possible, I won't even open them) for fear of messing them up/breaking them. _________________ I am looking for AC Odysset armor and outfits assets to port to FNV, if you know where I can get them, PM/email me.

| I really dig the idea of making custom characters for yourself! I think that's a GREAT idea. Your craftsmanship is off the charts.
Have you heard of those hyper-realistic figures like "Hot Toys?" Imagine getting a head sculpt of yourself that was THAT detailed lol. |

| @"pwninronan" I have, my older sister actually collects figures from them, but that's always outside my price range as they can be like $200 or more. I more or less got into this to save a little money in making the figures I wanted. Droping like $30-40 on a few things and then making a couple one of a kind figures for my shelf. Hell, I made a Terminator recently from just literal spare parts I had on hand. - Spoiler:

| @50percentJoe I completely agree! I've seen some people with collections, and it's like... Wow. That's $5K worth of action figures right there. Doing what you do is definitely more fiscally responsible, lol! |
