My take on the v2 of Kamakura, the one with that "awesome" action feature which ruined the figure.
I tried to use some old parts that were waiting their turn to become a whole figure again. I hope the results are not too ... out of fashion Kamakura by alexandre_ff Kamakura by alexandre_ff Kamakura by alexandre_ff Last edited by Letal; 06-29-2021 at 11:33 PM.. |

As far as the character, this is one of those things where Blaylock got it right... and Hama didn't. To be fair, he probably would have done the exact same thing, but Sean works better as his own character and not as Snake-Eyes II.
And for the figure- I can't remember anyone every using that head for Kamakura before. It's definitely a "Why didn't I think of that!?" recipe. It's just perfect. Was the yellow paint difficult to work with? |

Nicely done Letal, with such clean paint apps he looks just like a retail figure.

Was the yellow paint difficult to work with? I don't see much customs of Kamakura V2 out there, people tend to go with the more badass black or gray .. so maybe this head choice was really seldomly used. No, the yellow wasn't really that hard ... is harder then other collors.. but with a light gray primer I usually get a nice result after 3 or 4 thin layers of yellow. It's cool that you dig it man, thanks! Quote:
