Ok i want to ask what you guys think before i go doing what i think would look cool!! lol Iam working on my custom hardball right now and I liked him has a kid but never liked is color meaning is white shirt,lightbrown pants,grey undershirt you get the picture!! Trying to make him look like the og one but differnt colors. I seem to be having a brain fart and cant come up with a good color combo.
when doing your custom do you like to make them look like they did or do you like to mix it up!! Personal i like to mix it up. Try to make them look like what i want but keep them close to the og.

I don't make customs yet, but I'd plan on taking it on a case by case basis.
If you're making a specific figure for a specific purpose, then the colors should be based on that purpose. If you're making a figure so you can have a Modern Era version of that character, then it should be as close to the original as possible. BUT, if you never liked the original look of the characte, then feel free to do what you want. Hardball's outfit just never made sense, so go ahead and change the colors up. Some more green/brownish tones would work best. White kind of stands out on a battlefield.

I go totally accurate - unless it's something I make up or something I thought was arbitrary. The later the year the figure was released or the less I like the character the more liberties I take.

Night force doesn't sound too bad. For him I say paint him tiger force. It's up to you. When I make a custom I'll do whatever pleases me since I make them for me. Meaning I don't mind it not looking exactly like the original.

I try to do a combo -- I do the figure like the original enough that you know who it's supposed to be, but I try to add a few "updates" so that I make it a little better than the original.
