Good use of those parts!

How'd you get the pearly effect on the white?

I'd also like to hear about the helmet...

That's pretty cool. I, too, would be interested in hearing how you made the mask.

....and yeah, for Wraith unmasked, just think skeezy Euro-trash.

Thanks for the pic, now I can make him look alike a litte bit more.

The helmet as been bought at GTG but with modification to it s he can fit a head. I`ve hollow out the mask and afeter that I made a cut behind it starting at the back of the head going upward to the forhead to make the helemt bigger, After that I have put it on the gung-ho head so the mask sprey open, and then, I have glued in place a rubber peice that hide the cut and fit the desing of the mask. this operation was very tricky, because you have to make the mask almost paper tick.


For the pearl finish color, I have mixed a little bit of grey and a little bit of yellow with some white. to give a creme color. After the figure was painted, I have put some nail vernish on the figure to make him a little bit shinny.

Hope it help! And thanks for the feedback!

Oh and this is the picture that inspired me the custom.

Pretty cool. He almost has an Iron Man feel to him know. That works for the character too. Great job all around on this one.

I think it looks great. I'd love to have a figure like this. I'd rather seen the armor a little darker, it looks more white than grey/silver to me. That is my only critique.
