Hi everyone this is the first custom I have ever done. I used the Kotobukiya Bishoujo Scarlet Witch statue as inspiration. I learned quite a lot of what to do and what not. I used Hope Summers body and added some meat to both her hips, back side, chest and upper thighs. I sculpted her chest area, added some cuffs to her arms and replaced the hands with Skrull Elektras hands. Also switched the lower legs with ML Spiderwomans and sculpted the boot cuffs just below the rotating joint. I milliput for the sculpting if you are wondering. For her head I used a cast (from casting cave) of ML Satana and added her tiara using some plasticard cut to fit (required some test fitting.) Finally I primed and painted in Tamiya spray can lacquer paints using italian red and pearl light red for the pink representation. Coated the red pearl with some flat paint to give it some contrast with the glossy red. Turned out pretty good, but unfortunately without some lessons. Certainly need to do better preparation on the joints as I got some chipping and tamiya lacquers while they look great, can be expensive and you cannot use rubbers on paint job because it will stick and melt. So I had to use cloth. Overall I learned a lot and I think it came out good. Hope you like it.   Please wait... |
