I hadn't even considered CFT as an option. I was gonna use them for a Western character I have, so it might be worth looking into. Thank you @46Zone!
It's funny, for the character I'm doing (another original character), I've found all the pieces I need. I even got a head from a recent Star Wars Solo figure that's exactly what I'm looking for. It's a little loose on a MTF neck peg but I've put some sticky tack on the ball to test it out. But that jacket piece--oh, that jacket piece! Why is the last piece you need for a custom ends up being the hardest to find? Aint that always the way? I've even found some parts for a third custom, but this one is the most complicated. It'll be my first time using female components; it's also why I asked about the HACKS Advent Calendar elf pants. The biggest challenge there is trying to copy the flash dance off the shoulder shirt look. Some of you have pointed out that avacslab has a Zarana/Zanya torso. I'm mostly using Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S parts, so I might have to dip my toe into the world of Green Stuff. There's a lot of questions there I should probably do with a separate post, but as a general question...is green stuff easy to use for someone new to all of this? |

Does anyone have a Retaliation Ultimate Flint head and 30th Cobra Trooper/ POC Shock Trooper arms for sale or trade?
Also need the arms from Steel Brigade v2. Willing to trade for v1 arms if necessary. Thanks, HM

Are you familiar with the Vitruvian Armory? Excellent guy runs it and he stocks up on all BSF parts - including the Elf pants you mentioned. On that note, here are som possible thoughts for BFS female shirts: https://vitruvianarmory.com/skeleton...keleton-shirt/ https://vitruvianarmory.com/gold-eurayle-top/ Those molds are usually available in different colors as well. Also want to mention the Customizer’s Water Color thread: https://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-j...cooler-20.html It’s a great resource started by Axonrey to pool ideas and brainstorm solutions. Post anywhere of course, but I wanted to share that link because I know many talented customizers gather to help each other out. Last edited by Dod Ear; 05-06-2021 at 09:40 PM.. |

Hey bud - just a couple of thoughts
Are you familiar with the Vitruvian Armory? Excellent guy runs it and he stocks up on all BSF parts - including the Elf pants you mentioned. On that note, here are som possible thoughts for BFS female shirts: https://vitruvianarmory.com/skeleton...keleton-shirt/ https://vitruvianarmory.com/gold-eurayle-top/ Those molds are usually available in different colors as well. Also want to mention the Customizer’s Water Color thread: https://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-j...cooler-20.html It’s a great resource started by Axonrey to pool ideas and brainstorm solutions. Post anywhere of course, but I wanted to share that link because I know many talented customizers gather to help each other out. However, since you sent me the link for the skeleton shirt I didn't even think existed and now he seems to have the elf pants back in stock, I ordered them, too. I might take you up on your advice about the Watercooler thread. I'll take a picture of the practice I did today and try and post it either tomorrow or for the weekend when I don't have to knock out for work. But thank you so much! |

I need a MTF desert ops male body, or at least a complete torso and a waist section. I can source legs independently if I must.
Buy or trade.

I’ll second Vitruvian Armory being amazing. I am fairly new to BFS stuff, and I never would have started if there wasn’t a way to get parts without having to buy entire figures. VA rules.
