Shoulders and biceps: Wildcat

Sculpted details
Various Matte, Semi-gloss, Gloss varnishes for different parts of the figure.

My Custom X-Force Warpath
Here's my custom X-Force Warpath.
Base: ROML Pile Driver
Hands: ML Bishop
Head and Knives: Casts from Casting Cave. The head is a nice flexible plastic
Sculpted the X buckle and made the knife sheaths from some dollar store pleather card holder.
Sculpted the Boot buckles and also the Glove details
Painted with Citadel paints and sealed with tamiya clear and matt in different sections
I tried to eliminate paint rub as far as possible, but some places had to use the super glue coating method.
For the Eyes, I painted silver and then a Tamiya Clear red so as to give him brighter eyes
Not a lot of difference from the official released Warpath, but I started collecting late and thus wanted to add the character into my collection

TRU Exclusive 2 Pack Hulk
My Hulk collection is growing. Got one of the hulks that I had been looking for at a great price. Condition is very good even though I bought it loose
KO Marvel Select Ironman Mk VI
Got this off a local flea market.
Pretty decent paint job for a KO.
One of the extra hands had a hole that was too small for the peg. Fixed it with a Dremel

Marvel Select Barbarian Hulk
Just got this from the local comics shop.
It's the same mold as the unleashed hulk, with a new head sculpt.
I'm thinking of creating a hulk using 1/6 scale denim pants using this, and one of the other headcasts.
Face-off enlarged cast? or stick with the Unleashed head

Custom Marvel Select Red Hulk
Just finished my custom Red Hulk, Marvel Select Sized.
Used a MS movie hulk as base and used a cast of the MS red hulk head
Sanded joints to prevent paint rub.
Base coat Citadel Black, then drybrushed white and then Blood Red.
Some dremeling on the pants to create texture, then base coated black and dry brushed white
Painted nails grey and dry brushed black for texture on the nails.
Individually painted the teeth and finished it with gloss coat.
Rest of figure sealed with a Matt Coat

Marvel Select Unleashed Hulk
Got this on order from USA. It's a Disney Store exclusive.
I bought a few as I would like to try customizing 1 to a Red Hulk and another using the an Enlarged Face-Off Hulk head cast.
The Figure is quite nice, but not as articulated as the MS Avengers Movie Hulk.
From what I see, there are no articulation holes to fill. May have less paint rub issues vs the Movie Hulk

My First Custom - Marvel Select Hulk
Updated Completed Pictures.
WIP Pictures below
After practicing various painting techniques on a bootleg Savage Hulk, I thought I would finally try on an actual figure.
I purchased a Enlarged Face-Off Hulk, Open Mouth Variant from Glassman Custom and bought an additional Marvel Select Avengers Hulk.
Here is the head cast, next to a Toy Biz Twist'N Slam Hulk Head.
I realised that I will need some sculpting for it to fit on the MS Avengers Hulk
I used Tamiya Putty, Quick Type as I this creates a close fit for the peg on the neck and I didn't want to risk the peg getting stuck to the putty.
The hole was filled with the putty and I stuck the neck peg inside, twisted it around a bit to get a range of motion, and also kept moving it to make sure that it won't be bonded to the putty.
I also had to sculpt the side of the face so as to hide the neck better when it is on the figure's neck.
If you don't fill the original hole, the whole head would sit too low in the neck.
Here's a shot comparing the cast vs the MS Avengers Hulk head
I warm water to soak the neck and head and popped the head off
Here is a shot of the neck peg on the figure
Next, I primed the head using citadel abaddon black (Skipping the teeth and eyes) and dry brushed with Waaagh Flesh, Loren Forest, Straken Green. Then I mixed some Khorne red with some green and drybrushed the insides of the mouth. I also used a mixture of white + Khorne Red to give the eyes a slight pink in the eye whites.
Then I cleaned up the teeth with white paint and painted in the pupils.
Used Straken Green for the pupils as well.
I used a 2 part Straken Green and 1 part yellow to drybrush the face again to make the face closer to the color of the body
Then the whole head was sealed with Mr Hobby Topcoat Matt (Water Based)
Here's a pic after touch up and on the MS Figure. Haven't got round to prepping the body for repaint yet
