Hello one and all. Thanks for stopping by. I love this forum because you guys are always so cool to me, so thanks! Here's another non-Joe 3.75er.
So, I have heard the cries of the people...and the cries of the people say "more MU villains! Now!" I am here to oblige, and bring you what seems to be my most detailed 3.75" work yet...The nefarious Red Skull! You want villains? Well, nazi sympathizers bent on world domination are pretty much as bad as it gets. (NOTE: The Red Skull's opinions are his own and bear no reflection of Sentinel Prime, Iacon Studios, you, the website, or anyone else that isn't an evil maniac) I think we were all disappointed to learn that the official Marvel Universe Red Skull was going to be a repaint of an Indiana Jones figure, which is short for that scale, and had a T-crotch construction. I decided to correct the entire situation. As always the recipe follows the pics, my dear friends. cont |

OK, so, the body is that of a GI Joe 25th Anniversary Crimson Guard, which has amazing articulation and is a very sturdy figure. I sculpted the head from scratch using Apoxie-Sculpt. The coat was Gambit's. I went with a very textured, ridgy look for the head, as none of the pics have ever shown the mask to be smooth. He was carefully painted using my absolute favorite paint, Testor's Model Master Acryl, which produces an amazing store-bought finish that just won't scratch! Never content to simply throw a coat of paint on a figure and call it done, he was disassembled, and all joints were sanded to insure no wear. Thanks for your time and any suggestions you may have! oh yeah, have to pimp the auction! Marvel Universe 3.75" Red Skull w removable coat - eBay (item 260434069167 end time Jun-28-09 00:09:36 PDT) |

Head is a little disproportionate, but I like the figure overall.
