Platty's Projects - updated! Jim Lee Cyclops WIP

[Platty]

Hi all. I've got a couple of completed custom figures to show so I thought I'd create a new thread.

I'll also post finished works and plans and any ideas for my projects in here

I'l continually update this thread with stuff I make!

Current projects include:

90’s Jim Lee Cyclops
Jason Bourne
And an overhaul of my Craig and Brosnan bonds

Thanks for looking!

Platty.

Re: Platty's Projects

First up is my BvS Bruce Wayne. All assembled by me.

I tried to get as accurate as possible.

I'm a real stickler for accuracy!

I'm really proud of this one. It's had a few shares on Instagram, and I'd say the combined total of likes for the photos on my Instagram page and all the shares is well over 13k.

Thanks for checking it out. Any questions please ask!

Affleck looks great. Oddly enough I like Affleck better as Batman than Bale. I'm sure that will put some panties in a bunch.

Platty's Projects - updated! Bruce Wayne v2

BvS Bruce Wayne v2

He now features the fantastic new Affleck 2.0 sculpt by eleven and I gave him a new upper body. I made some small tweaks here and there, the biggest being padding out his thighs a bit. He had skinny legs last time. He’s also a tiny bit bulkier across the shoulders which fills out the suit a bit more. I’m extremely happy with this figure now, especially after seeing it side by side with the v1.

The tie clip and collar pin were made by me using real metal.

The hardest part of this figure was getting him as tall and broad as the bvs batman figure. Just huge! But with some ankle extenders and a bit of luck later, he’s not far off.

Thanks for looking!

Christian Bale Bruce Wayne

Here’s my rather simple kitbash of Christian Bale’s Bruce. I’ve seen the suited look of Bale Bruce done quite a lot so wanted to do something slightly different for my figure, plus I love this scene in the film and the dialogue. I also feel like the ‘billionaire playboy’ role for bale isn’t him at all and he only does it because he has to, whereas I feel like Ben Affleck’s bruce takes the billionaire playboy side very seriously. So I went for the more relaxed down to business approach for Bale!

Thanks for looking any feel free to ask any questions

Here is is with the very first Affleck Wayne I made:

Here’s the head I will be using on my 90’s Jim Lee Cyclops 1:6 Figure. Pete Skywalker did the paints and it’s a great job.

He’s nearly finished so I’ll have completed pictures soon.

Cheers for looking!

Solid work! That suit on Affleck looks amazing, so well tailored. I'm definitely partial to TDK though, and casual Bale looks fantastic! If you ever do another Bale that you'd let go of, I'd be interested in one. Impressive work.

Thanks a lot!

Yes the pop toys suit on affleck is gorgeous. I’m not sure I’d ever make another bale but thank you I take that as a huge compliment. The parts are relatively easy to come by. The head is available on onesixthkit.com Then it’s a case of finding a body, some suit pants, brown shoes and a t shirt. Easy peasy!

Re: Platty's Projects - updated! Bruce Wayne v2

So I wanted to do some big reveal of my Jim Lee cyclops as I’m very proud of it but progress is slow as I’m currently getting back on my feet after a house move and complete renovation!

So here are some WIP pics.

Thanks for looking! I put my heart and soul into this guy

The head is from giannih messiah, the blue suit from unleashed viper custom creations, the x logos and boots from the medicom cyke, head paint by Pete walker. Hands are sideshow clone trooper. Body is Phicen M34.

Everything else, mainly the yellow elements, such as the belt, pouches, straps, leg straps, were all scratch built by me.

This is where I’m up to so far (belt is a little high in this pic) his legs are actually huge, but the chest is huge-er. It’s insane. He’s a tank!

And here are some WIP pictures:

You nailed EVERY part of the Batfleck and Cyclops. Fantastic work Platty! I can't wait to see who you tackle next! Love the attention and care you put into these.

 

[Peteskywalker]

Cyclops is looking epic

Would love to see some more close up pics of the complete figure when your are done.

@SkullKnight Thank you very much!! I’m glad it shows, I appreciate that.

Next, hmm, I’m really liking the looks of the new Tom cruise mission impossible head shown by eleven (el1ev1en) and I’m also really liking the looks of the new film too, I can see an Ethan hunt finally joining my collection!!

Also the new balloon man Daniel Craig sculpt will be bought too so a new bond is on the list!

I’ve recently more or less finished a Jason Bourne so pics of that will be uploaded soon. Thanks again!

Thanks a lot Pete. And thanks again for the fantastic work on the paint.

I will be taking pics when he’s finished for sure.

I need to create the hands then paint them, paint the boots, and finish the straps for his wrists and calves. Then hes more or less done with some little touches here and there..
