Re: I can't have nice things...

the skullwings are stupid fresh!

nice one.

 

Re: I can't have nice things...

You could dye it as dark as you wanted, it will just always have a bit of a color cast of whatever the original vinyl was.

thanks man! I was lucky to get one of the clear ones- I wish t9g would do a clear Rangeas!

thanks. Skullwings are one of my favorites.

also- if anyone thinks they might like me to paint something I'm open to commissions! just drop me a line!

 

Hey, Phil. Great stuff. I'm a little too proud to have recognized Metamorpho before I read the caption to confirm it. I think I might have read a few too many issues of Batman and the Outsiders...

 

The skullwing is aces!

 

Oh yeah! thats what I'm talking about right there. Those were my favorites!

That T9G Helper is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. !

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

Some new stuffs!




zulu seijin


I've repainted this figure more times then I can count, and it never seemed quite right. I finally got this guy painted the way I want.


TOkoichi- he was fun to paint one of these finally.


It wouldn't be a proper update to this thread without a new skullwing.




First Mid Sized Rangeas custom! I like them much more now that I've gotten a chance to paint a pair!




This one is an homage to the 1971 Bullmark Bemular Kaiju, which I think (I'm guessing here) in no small way influenced t9g when he designed Rangeas. Its my favorite of this latest bunch of crazies.


group shot!

and here's some older customs I've been meaning to re-shoot:




faded skullwing and skullbrain


distressed damaged brain


Hawaii Mutant Evil

The hellopike Custom t9g family:


thanks for looking! There's more shot on my flickr and my blog!

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

Awesome! Great job, love the 71 hommage to first bemular

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

I think it's time I had another Hellopike. Who's the orange and green guy in the top pics? Beautiful work Phil!

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

Thanks for the kind words guys! "Unexpected and perfect" is one of the best critiques I could get, thank you!

Plastichunter- the Orange and Green guy is Zulu Seijin by Marmit- I believe he's an Ultraman villain. If you're interested, I just set up a bigcartel store with some of my customs-

There's also a link on my blog!

thanks again for looking guys!

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

I notice your color themes consistently included brown earth tones which I really like.

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

wow, that Zulu Seijin is BADASSS...!!!!

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

heh, I've been telling myself lately that this must be my "Orange period" I've been enjoying orange, yellows and purples quite a bit lately.

Thanks Mike! It's all in the boots.

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

i'm so jealous of your paint application and such. really nice work

not really a fan of all that's going on on the rxh piece, but the SB toys look fabuloso

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

Thanks pickle- I've been trying to work on my RxH stuff, I'm not a huge fan of RxH outside of the mutant chaos, and I think it reflects a little. I just don't feel rxh like I feel secret base. And you know if you want to own any of them, just say the word...

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

Wow Phil, you have a great eye for colors. My favorite is the Zulu Seijin. And yes, it's all in the boots! The Rangeas also came out very vibrant too. Good work!

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

i really gotta fuckin get back on it

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

YES! Yes you do!

 

Re: Hellopike Custom Kaiju

C'mon Pickle! Get back on the horse and paint something up so we can trade! A big part of my collection is customs from other board members and I don't have a PL custom yet!
