QMX Star Trek General discussion thread

For me it is. Not in the first season, not on my shelf.

Aren't you missing someone else from the first season though?

Why don’t mine all together look that good?

Your collection looks great, but it might pay to check out the thread for figure posing to get some ideas to make your poses more natural.
If you notice the pose Karnis gave Kirk, there’s a subtle foot pose where the right foot is further forward. Little things like that give figures a bit more life. Have fun with them!
Love the Enterprise btw.[emoji106]

Yes, I suck at posing and will look for that thread, thanks, any help is appreciated. If someone wants to put that link up, I’d be happy to check it all out.

I find that some figures really do look better in a stagnant manner, as long as it matches what were used to seeing them like in an iconic pose from the film and or TV show.

This hobby really is something:

1) Waiting

2) More waiting

3) Futzing and or customizing, and or both

4) Posing

5) Dioramas and/or environments that enhance the figure.

6) Filing bankruptcy and or having your significant other tell you:

“Everyone needs hobbies, but I think you’ve taken this a little bit too far, how about we go on a hike or go to the mountains, or just relax outside somewhere, like a picnic.”

Or my personal favorite:

“You seem to care more about those figures than you do about me.”

I guess that some people really are clairvoyant ...

Keeping in line that this is the QMX Star Trek thread, look at how someone posed their McCoy, amazing, best I’ve ever seen:

Thanks! Putting him on a slimmer body is what made the biggest difference.

 

[faststreetsofhongkong]

Which body did you use?

Incredible work there [emoji1303]

Seconded! It’s a significant improvement! And I am also curious about what body you used.

 

[davejames]

It's been awhile, but pretty sure it was the Threezero Rick Grimes body I used for that one. It was a strangely small body for Rick, but worked great for Bones.

I used the Threezero Rick Grimes body for my McCoy as well. I pried the ankle extenders off to reduce his height.

For Picard I used the Disney Krennic body. I'm keeping one of those spare in case I need it for Sulu.

 

[Hidden-place]

Yes - I also ported Bones over to the Rock Grimes body - makes the head to shoulder width ratio much improved!

 

[davejames]

I had put Spock on a slimmer body as well. For him it was the Sideshow Freddy Kruger body, but I think it might have taken a bit more work to make the parts fit.

Davejames--huge improvements with your Bones and Spock on slimmer bodies. Thanks for posting these photos.

 

[Pauln6a]

Yeah I'd love to have a go but I'm so shambolic at customising I can't take the risk.

 

[greatlakes6]

Where did you guys find the Grimes bodies? None on eBay.

 

[davejames]

I think I got mine off Toyanxiety, but it's been quite awhile since they've broken that one down.
