Pure genius man
Yes please do take some pics because I may need to do it on mine
And I'm a beginner at customizing figs

Thanks man, really appreciate it. :) This was the first time I used it too. I've only played around with it until now, to get a feeling for the stuff, how to work with it etc. This was the first time I actually sculpted something onto a body though.
 
Looking Good agonistes86...Here is Buttmunch's Figure set on Royce body he sent me to fit the suit.

Forearms look a little long and personally I would add some thigh bulkers. The legs dont match the muscular body as they are too thin if they are blank. Again, just my two cents. Nevertheless a really nice set. We need to get in touch soon. :duff

Moe, I have a spare HT t800 body. will your Jim Lee suit fit on this?

thanks!
 
Looks fantastic! :clap

Thanks Mag.

Please PM me ;)

Did you receive my PM the other day? Would really like an update on my head.


Anyway, I received my remaining parts from Moe yesterday. Might repaint the belt a bit, but it looks pretty good already. I also made the cloth underpants myself today, from the same fabric I'm using for the cape. I've never sewn before, so I watched a short youtube vid on how to do it properly. I think it turned out alright for my first try. This opens up a whole new world too, as I was planning on maybe wiring the cape. Still have to figure out how to it properly, but I think this has now become a reality. :D
I still have to find the right leather to make the batsymbol, this is just a mock-up for now.
Here are some current shots:

BTW, the fabric for the cape and underpants is actually a very deep blue, but it doesn't show in the pics with low light. I've got a blue head coming from Zkulptor, so I'll most likely dry brush the gloves and boots with some blue too.
 
Great to hear, really looking forward to this head a lot. :hi5:

Here is my current progress on the body, sculpted some muscles on the advanced TT. Haven't done anything to his right arm yet, that's why it's still so skinny. Not 100% done with the rest either, but it's getting close.
Let me know what you think. :)

How did you dry the clay? I know with Super Sculpey you need to bake it but you can't stick the whole figure in the over or it'll melt. Also did you put sculpty on the shoulder as well??

I'm using the Arnold body
I had to cut the neck out from the body though

Hey do you have a pic of that? I was thinking about doing that to a muscle body but wasn't sure if it'd look right. Can you pop a neck on it and snap some pics?

I used a hairdryer to dry it. Not sure how well that works when the sculpey is thicker, but since these were fairly thin layers, it worked great.
