i finally got some more pics uploaded. i'm going to have to get dish out here to move my sat.

man-e-faces was a motu that i had as a kid, and i wanted to add him to my project. at first a few failed attempts made me think it just wasn't going to happen. i omitted the "turning feature" and forged ahead. then i got an idea that looks like it will work. i chopped the neck, drilled for a lego piece to inset tight, then trimmed a hollow chess piece to fit and turn. sliced off some faces , hollowed them some ,and wired them on. i had 3 sets of faces that i liked, but in the end felt these were the best size.

w/he-man and maa. i think the armor shell is from some lex luthor? the gray chest detail from 4" halo. the crotch armor from 5-6" halo, and the robot face shield might be a halo piece too, but i'm not sure.
Image

faces are fn xmas tree jonesy, marvel red skull, and fall out trenchcoat guy
ImageImageImage

lots still to do on him.

That Man-E-Faces is soooooo good (and I'm not even a He-Man fan)! Amazing work.

I just binged MoTU Revelations on Netflix and these customs feel truer to the characters than that cartoon art.

Really cool stuff!

thanks spin! i started motu last year then took a long break from them. chiefs he-man stuff really set me going in the right direction. i havent watched the newer stuff, but the screen shots i've seen looked pretty cool.

thanks pluv! way to put the pressure on to finish as good as i started. i don't have the leg armor nailed down so i might have to sculpt. in my normal fashion i spent the last few days on something different.

You are nailing scaling down the MOTU figures. Pitch perfect, as always.

Heck yeah!!! A He-Man update. Looking good man. I hate that you used the really large MU buck because you made it look really good and I avoided using it b/c I thought it looked to big so I went the next step down on their bucks. Kind of makes me wish I had just used the Scurge/Hercules one instead of the Wonderman/Warpath one.

Really like what you did with Man-E-Faces too. Keep those updates coming.
