Sterling Archer - Completed 12/23

Iron Will · **Posted:** Tue Dec 20, 2011 7:21 pm

I am not a big fan of posting niche characters that someone else has already attempted and nailed (Dennis) but after seeing his Archer and being a huge fan of the show, I had to take a shot at him using a completely different formula. I was happy with my outcome, but Dennis holds the Archer crown!!

Also in the works is alternate turtleneck body.

"Tactical Turtleneck"

Can't wait to see this finished...

Well let's get one thing straight - I might have nailed Lana Kane (see what I did there? lol) but my Sterling Archer custom is the pinnacle of mediocrity. I'm meh enough about it to maybe not even tweak it, but to scrap it entirely.

In contrast, your WIP here is well on the way to being the best Duchess custom ever. I also had an alternate tactical turtleneck for mine - lol - just wasn't sold enough on the head to go with it. I really like the sharpness of how the colors are looking on yours. Very nicely done.

Never watched the show (Thats it dammit. I'm watching it. Its on Netflix) but from the pics of him I've seen this is pretty dead on. Very nice painting as always.

that head is sooo spot on, it has caused me to make an Archer.

Thanks all! Sorry bout parts!!

Head - Renegades Duke
Torso - James McCullen SDCC Destro

I'll be using ROC Cobra Commander legs to fill in until I track down another McCullen.

Looking good, if you have the CC ROC legs, just use them. You just need a high ball glass and P22 (just trim down the Marauder Megatron pistol, base gun is P22). Love Archer and the custom really captures the character. Any plans on the rest?

Completed bump!

That's a great-looking custom. I'm not into the show, but as a guy-in-suit figure, this is really nice. I like the addition of the tie clip, too: it's a nice touch that adds just enough detail to make it stand out. Great work!

I have no idea who the character is but that custom is absolutely fantastic. That looks factory produced, the paint apps are impressive.
