Title: Lifeboat Custom Comp/Showcase Official pics!! Post by: NiteOwl on July 01, 2015, 11:56:28 pm For my custom I chose Granny Goodness.
She started out on the larger WWE wrestling buck, this idea has been around for ages and i am no way claiming it to be an original idea. I added Greenstuff to the jowls to give the appearance of a fuller face. I then sculpted the hair into a more Granny-esque style. Greenstuff was also applied to give her a more *ahem* female appearance. Originally I toyed around with sculpting to give the appearance of her chain mail armour costume. I couldn't sculpt that into a perfect row, so I decided to use sequins, I had to cut them in half and layer them. (http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e57/NiteOwl75/photo35_zpsouegkwcz.jpg) (http://s37.photobucket.com/user/NiteOwl75/media/photo35_zpsouegkwcz.jpg.html) I sculpted some boots and added some spikes, I also added spikes to her wrist guards. I also sculpted sleeves and put in some costume contours. The cape is from the recent Odin ML wave and I believe the accessory is from DCUC Barda. The pics aren't the best, I had to use my iphone and the light coming of the sequins and the flesh tones were killing me for light. Thanks for looking (http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e57/NiteOwl75/812f3326-4ddd-432a-9cbc-c12f8e6dfcc3_zpsojivdsfg.jpg) (http://s37.photobucket.com/user/NiteOwl75/media/812f3326-4ddd-432a-9cbc-c12f8e6dfcc3_zpsojivdsfg.jpg.html) (http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e57/NiteOwl75/014b5eae-3fe4-4193-9ebf-f923c0f5a73a_zpshnp360kq.jpg) (http://s37.photobucket.com/user/NiteOwl75/media/014b5eae-3fe4-4193-9ebf-f923c0f5a73a_zpshnp360kq.jpg.html) (http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e57/NiteOwl75/photo34_zps6wdexz23.jpg) (http://s37.photobucket.com/user/NiteOwl75/media/photo34_zps6wdexz23.jpg.html) Title: Re: Lifeboat Custom Comp/Showcase Official pics!!

Post by: fishmilkshake on July 02, 2015, 04:20:37 pm I don't usually do female customs because almost all of the female bucks are ugly. So when I decided to do one for the comp I was a bit at a loss for who to do. Then I saw that ugly ass Sharon Carter that Hasblo gave us on my shelf and decided she needed an upgrade.
I really dig Sharon, especially her white costume. I wasn't sure what buck to use, except I had only one goal in mind....to make Cap's girfriend sexy as hell. She ended up being half a Black Widow 2-pack figure and half a Cordelia (Buffy) figure. Unfortunately the torsos didn't match at all so I just ended up hacking them in half, pinning them into the position I wanted and using green stuff to fill in the gaps. The hair is a Frankenstein's monster of parts and green stuff. I was going for that high hair sixties Steranko spy feel. Hair ain't my thing. Pistol and holster from someone I can't remember and then a complete paint and try to get that metallic white as smooth as possible. Enjoy! Sharon Carter, a.k.a AGENT-13 (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f265/fishmilkshake/Customs/05_Sharon_Carter_Ref_zpsynistt99.jpg) (http://s49.photobucket.com/user/fishmilkshake/media/Customs/05_Sharon_Carter_Ref_zpsynistt99.jpg.html) (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f265/fishmilkshake/Customs/01_Sharon_Carter_Main_zpswi01pa8o.jpg) (http://s49.photobucket.com/user/fishmilkshake/media/Customs/01_Sharon_Carter_Main_zpswi01pa8o.jpg.html) (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f265/fishmilkshake/Customs/03_Sharon_Carter_Side_zps8ztogrf1.jpg) (http://s49.photobucket.com/user/fishmilkshake/media/Customs/03_Sharon_Carter_Side_zps8ztogrf1.jpg.html) (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f265/fishmilkshake/Customs/02_Sharon_Carter_Back_zpsphmlkepj.jpg) (http://s49.photobucket.com/user/fishmilkshake/media/Customs/02_Sharon_Carter_Back_zpsphmlkepj.jpg.html) (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f265/fishmilkshake/Customs/04_Sharon_Carter_Front_zpsskzbdczj.jpg) (http://s49.photobucket.com/user/fishmilkshake/media/Customs/04_Sharon_Carter_Front_zpsskzbdczj.jpg.html) Title: Re: Lifeboat Custom Comp/Showcase Official pics!!

Really cool Ben, how do you get the white paint so silky smooth? I know it's probably spray, but you got some mad skills! Cool pics and background. Well done. Title: Re: Lifeboat Custom Comp/Showcase Official pics!! Post by: Scotty on July 02, 2015, 08:44:21 pm Oh nice job guys!!!
