Part of the Action Force sub team Q-Force, here is Leviathan and his sea turtle pal Lloyd.

Thanks.
It's one that I'm a bit disappointed with, to be honest. The helmet was the obvious starting point, but it's just too big for 1:18 scale. (I've been able to make many Imaginext helmets work, but not this one.) I offset its size by sticking w Imaginext hands/feet, and the largest ARAH pumpkin head I could find. Lloyd was a better outcome, but I've come to enjoy painting animals when I get the chance. The "underwater" photo is just 10 minutes pushing through Photoshop, but it's silly fun. |

Also, the helmet could probably have been used for Classified figures. So glad I haven't gone down that customizing rabbit hole.

Nice. AVACs lab has one that's a little more in scale, but he still looks good.

OP might not care buts it?s bad form amongst most customizers. Just FYI. As for the OP, great colors Clock. Do you only touch vintage figures ? Be cool to see your take on a buoy form the ground up concepts with the way you paint

Thanks, guys.
Well, there is another AF figure that used the old-timey dive helmet, so I may have to visit avac's lab... That's a nice reworking of Deep Six into Leviathan. Crazy thought- paint the inside of the helmet with glow-in-the-dark paint to put some light on the face. You put the effort into removing solid the visor, but it's too dark to see inside. As for other scales... no. I did a handful of 12" customs in the mid 90's based on the Hall of Fame figures from the early 90's. My collection is 95% 1:18, with a drizzling of Eagle Force and MASK in 1:24. One of my friends is really enjoying the Classified line, so at some point I'm sure I'll dip my toe in the 1:12 water, even if it's just to repaint a head or piece of gear.
