    If we're taking about a group commission for a more accurate leather jacket for Re4 Leon, I'm absolutely in, 100%

    I ended up buying the mintedlabs nemesis, since there's just no way I can afford the world box one. He's a really weird figure, but I like it better then expected. It's way more of a old fashioned doll sort of figure. Reminds me of old 80s collectible plush toys honestly. Scales pretty well...

    He's got the electronics in his neck, right? I wonder if there's a way to just swap his arms to hide those seams and leave the light mechanism intact.

    I had success swapping Leon with a Phicen/TBLeague 32 body, and I've heard people swapping Chris with a 34 or 35 body. You might need to find or make a wrist peg adaptor. (I was able to just cut down a couple wall anchors and hot glue them into Leon's hands and they work perfectly, so it isn't...

    I'd probably switch out the knife sheath too while I was at it, but for right now I'm happy enough with the figure that those are all pretty low priority fixes. I might get around to them, I might not, he makes a pretty nice display piece either way. For right now I'm more focused on diorama...

    I got mine in today and I have to say I'm fairly impressed for a third party figure. The likeness is excellent IMO and the costume is decent enough, apart from the STRAS but then he'll be in a case front on for the most part so I can live it it. I also got around to swapping Leon's body with...

    WTB Worldbox Nemesis

    This is a longshot, but I'm looking to buy Worldbox's nemesis, either version but preferably the 1.0. I don't mind if it's used or has minor QC issues but I'd really like to pay less than what it's currently going for on ebay, which is kind of insane. Thanks!

    Put together a diorama to photograph my figures in style today, what to y'all think? Kind of a prototpe, just made of foamboad. Eventually wanna do one with MDF, but that's gonna cost a lot more and I wanted to see if it would even work out, first. IMO, I think it did! Edit: No idea why the...

    She looks pretty great for a third party, honestly. I've got one on order myself, but I haven't heard anything from them yet, so fingers crossed I guess. Seemed kind of dodgy, we'll see. I'd love to see more reviews like this of the unofficial figures, honestly. A lot of them only have french...

    Looks like I'll just have to keep hunting, then. I guess I don't really mind if it's not perfectly accurate since the HT one really wasn't perfect anyway, but it's disappointing that there haven't been more options made.

    Bummer. I'm tempted to hunt down the hot heart version and just have a backup body to mess around with, but I've heard reports that the jacket on that one is a bit dodgy too. Anybody have it who can say?

    Jumping back into collecting after a few years, does anyone have any suggestions for replacing Leon's RE4 jacket? Mine's officially toast, just couldn't survive being stored I guess.

    Thanks! I think the next things I'm eying to make are some plagas type monsters, but I've also got a thought to attempt G1 Birkin, I've seen some really amazing works and I'd like to try my hand. Does anybody have a good head suggestion?

    Alright! More or less finished with the Ooze now!

    That would be pretty awesome! The figure I used as the base for Nemesis worked out pretty well, but something just a little taller probably would have been good. You have any specific plans, or just kinda thinking about it?

    Resident Evil Customs Thread

    A predator body would probably work pretty well thinking about it- but you'd probably have to hack off most of the upper body and do some major resculpting, and it would probably be rather difficult to match the sculpting with the style already present on the body. It would probably essentially...

    either one would be really cool, yeah. Theoretically I could probably make a licker with the same method I'm using on the ooze, but a Hunter seems like more of a stretch. The old Hunter Beta toy they made seemed like it might be large enough that I could fudge it a bit by chopping up the legs to...

    Close! I think they're called 'Oozes', from Revalations. And I'm considering it, it's more a matter of what I think I can pull off with what materials I have access too. I've been thinking about trying to modify some of the old Moby **** figures to make them a little larger to scale somewhat...

    Thanks for the warm replies, everyone! I'm actually working on another custom monster right now too- It's still a work in progress but I can give a bit of a preview-

    I made most of it myself. The head was an unpainted resin cast from a guy named numoworkshop over on the ebays, and everything else apart from the gloves, boots and rocket launcher is hand-made. The base was an old DC Direct Dr. Manhattan, heavily re-sculpted with original sculpy. Body and head...
