1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

[Rogerbee]

Thanks Ron,

I tried to get the facial detail on Indy as natural and subtle as I could, it's such a pity it doesn't show on camera. In person it does look really good.

CHEERS!

Here's my KOTCS Indy. All parts Medicom, except the whip, which is from Sideshow figure and gunbelt, which I just had laying about in my parts bin. The plastic one that came with the figure was broken. I repainted the head, weathered the clothes and padded him with a tissue around the waist.

And one daylight shot:

Pretty nice,

There's something about the scale that looks a little off though.

CHEERS!

Awesome MJ!!!

This is my first attempt at weathering the KOTCS Indy jacket. Pretty happy with how it turned out. Used a mix of nutmeg brown and white latex paint, applied with a cotton swab.

Now I need to weather the rest of his clothing!

Waiting on a replacement neck I ordered (FA096 1/6 Skin Neck). Don't like the color of the Pro body neck.

So here is the latest set of heads I have been painting for a client who contacted myself from my Blog. He sent me 5 Indy heads to paint 3 with beards and two without. I hope you enjoy them?

Hey, Greggo, nice work. A word of caution though. If somebody sends you multiple heads of one character like that, they might be flipping them for a profit to other collectors. I painted a Clint Eastwood Blondie a couple years ago when I was only charging $60 per head, and he put it on a body with custom clothes and sold it for $700 on evilBay. That's when I started raising my prices.

Here's my first repaint of the 1/6 Indy. What the heck took me so long....?

There's actually two repaint here. The head alone is for a customer, and the one on the figure body is mine, but can you tell the difference?

I'll say it again. Nathan you have raised the bar. Beautiful.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

That's phenomenal, Nathan! Great work!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Thanks guys. I like to raise the bar to keep things interesting for myself. It's not fun to do unless it's a challenge.

 

[Wor-Gar]

what's happening in here?

 

[SilentSurfer]

perfect!

 

[Rogerbee]

SilentSurfer, that is one fantastic Indy!

CHEERS!

 

[stshammgod]

Speaking of fantastic, thanks SO much to SilentSurfer... my Indy is just pure awesomeness now!

I painted up the Hasbro shoes myself... I quite like them.

hi guys saw a lot of excellent work here.
I need to know if anyone is able to do a thuggee outfit or sell a complete TOD indy outfit for my 1/6th mine cart shown.
I painted this kit and i have the logs and rails to put it on, would love a thuggee cart rather than the Indy one.
still more work to be done but you all get the picture

Superb work,

Couldn't the Hasbro Cairo Swordsman gear be adapted for a Thuggee?

CHEERS!

 

[Rogerbee]

After seeing how good Silent Surfer's Indys are I've decided to have another go at mine.

Watch this space...

CHEERS!

 

[FlyAndFight]

Great looking mine car!!!

Looking forward to the Rogerbee Indy part deux!
