5th Element Customs - I need you!

[darkchylde80]

Hey guys and gals,

I love the movie and really want to start making some custom figs, I was going to start with Korban assuming he was the easiest however I have been delayed in trying to find a suitable HS.

Anyway, I got an update email from Ada Chan listing her newest sculpt, Zorg. Has anyone purchased this yet? If so, what is the sizing like?

The likeness isn't far off in my opinion and I think it would make an awesome custom

Does anyone have any customs they can share on this thread to aid my enthusiasm?!

Finally someone is gonna do one of my favourite movies ever! Good luck dude, I hope someone has an answer for you concerning Emmanuel Baptiste Zorg.

I havent got it although I do like the movie, I just dont like it that much tbh

However, how you gonna do the plastic head dome ? seems that it would be hard to paint on as its part of the sculpt

Consider my services ? and clear vacuum formed plastic

Id say sand the sculpt down where its raised for the dome send it me (Im in the UK) and for a nominal fee Ill vaccum form a dome for you so its more accurate

Sounds good to me! I wouldn't have tackled that dome myself to be honest The clothing will be the other challenge I think on this custom.

Well if you start with the reference images here Im sure peeps will help you out sourcing them

Theres always Blind Voyeur although I bet he is overwhelmed with commisions atm

Good luck with this. This is something I have always wanted as well.

Hmm yeah clothing will have to be custom, I don't think you can bash any of it. You could ask Amy Jones if she dould do the clothing for Zorg. I am not on my pc right now so not sure what the link is but I think it was www.ajclothing.com or something like that.

How on Earth are you going to do his techniclour marble-effect colour changing coat?

 

[Mooncat]

He's gonna send an email off to Jean Paul and get him to do the clothes !

Will be quite a task for just the clothing, let alone the head. That sculpt looks pretty good though.

No task is too great (except fixing the economy right now )

BV, BV he's our man, if he can't tailor it no-one can!

Searching desperately for some good reference pics, I can find loads of the famous Milla costume, funny that

This project is a go, I have the head on order so will be in touch Mooncat!

Oh didn't see that Bruce headsculpt, will have to check it out. I would prefer to have the set, would look better as a display. Would love to have a mangalore aswell *sigh* but that's going to be impossible to do

Have a few ideas on the weapon, may try and scratchbuild one.
