I've never done customs.. but I really want to get into it. I just need to find a shop in Toronto that sells the right paints and all that and I can start.
This is going to be my first one. Right now it's just a "LBC" head swap.. but I have plans to do some repainting on the entire thing. Was in Walmart today and picked up an extra ROC Destro and another MARS Trooper 3-pack.. swapped the Officer's head with Destro's. I figure this can be an "in the action" Destro or a field combat outfit for him or something like that. Any suggestions on colour schemes? I was thinking black clothes with maybe crimson or blue accents where you see silver now. Definitely keeping and repainting the helmet as a part of this figure too, as I think it looks cool when it's on him. I also want to repaint his head and maybe give him the classic green eyes on black. Last edited by dubq; 08-06-2009 at 09:54 PM.. |

Okay so I am still planning on making the fig I talked about above.. but just to test out my paints I decided to repaint the entire ROC Destro figure.. gold head style. Needs some touch ups, etc, but not too shabby for my first go.

Thanks man! Tomorrow after work I'm gonna work on the touch ups and finer details so I'll have updates that's for sure.
I can already see myself getting highly addicted to this hobby.. I literally sat for the last 3.5 hours doing this paint job.. forgot to have dinner! lol |
