5N-KE Astrobe Mek DeRoid Coming Together
It’s slow going but my first bootleg action figure design, made entirely by me and my wife, is nearing the end of his journey from idea to resin toy. Four points of articulation and he even stands! (Though if you look at him wrong he may fall over on you; I need lead in his feet.)
He needs a silver drybrushing, some more details painted, and then packaging design.
That is an awesome bootleg. I especially like the feet. Well done, congrats to you and your wife.
And these are all already sold out? *sigh* Looks beautiful, though.
Oh! It is looking beautiful! It’s funny… I had imagined it with a gunmetal look much like this! The little paint details make it just POP! Great stuff, man! I am super-impressed!
@clark – Thank, Clark. I couldn’t have done this without her; she created the molds, did a lot of the initial assembly (I created the head and then she put together the torso and arms after I explained what I wanted), and she handled the wash and dry brushing on these guys.
@Matt – There will be another run with some changes to the design (probably entirely new legs) and a different color scheme.
@Monsterforge – Thanks. I hope to finish all of these next weekend. And then packaging!
Those claw arms look very familiar. I want to say Apocalypse?
