The only custom's I've done so far, just swapping body parts and trying out paints, my paint apps need work, and I may have to switch over to Tajima or something as the folkart I'm using now seem to chip way too easily, even with sealant. crits welcome.

they look good. Love the head on the Eel, and the blue Incinerator makes way too much sense

i love that starduster, especially the pack!

question: what is that base that you have him standing on?

Thanks guys!

The base starduster is on is from a Transformers game piece, it was a figure of Optimus Prime that was glued to it, I pried it off, and removed his missle launcher, so my kids fish 'Optimus' would have a friend :shifty:

accidently found out that it works perfect for the RAH foot pegs.

Is the stand from the Attaklicks line - that might be a spelling error too. Check the bottom of the stand. I got a bunch of game parts that look similar and if its the same I feel sorry for them cause I am totally steeling that idea.

Also do you use a base coat. Folkart does fine for me with a base. Ya it chips at the joint if you don't take time to get around that part.

Good apps by the way. I like the incenerator the best. The Eel is cool to sort of like a hydro viper in eels colors, which really makes sense.

poisonbladed: Yeah I'm pretty sure it's from attackiks (sp?), it was just something that came in on trade at the store and my boss let me have it.

I used a Painter's Touch grey primer as a base coat on the starduster (and the color on the eel) and the folkart seemed to react strangely, I'll have to give it another go. spraying on the base color seems to be the best way to go, keeps the paint thinner so works better.

Thanks alot for the comments, now to finish a few others, getting more ambitious means more time put in.
