The Warsman Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) ************************************************************************************************************************************* updated: Still need to paint Rhino's face and feet, and continue to cut in rocklines for the Thing. Red Hulk is done, I'll take and post better pics once the three are finished. More pics at: http://imgur.com/a/mjUgY ********************************************************************* Hi gang, I have had many days off work due to the holidays and now inclimate weather days, sooooo, I molded and casted my Lego Hulk to make some more big figs of my own! I'm starting with theThing, Red Hulk and the Rhino first. I just sculpted on some details and waiting for them to harden. The Thing will have his craggy rock lines Dremeled in very soon. You might see a couple of other projects peeking out from behind the big guys! Check out several more pics here: http://www.flickr.co...07/11844052644/ Edited January 13, 2014 by The Warsman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The-Daryl Posted January 9, 2014 These show a great deal of promise. I can't wait to see the finished product... I did have a question though - You said that you molded Hulk; what material/product did you cast these out of? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Warsman Posted January 9, 2014 These show a great deal of promise. I can't wait to see the finished product... I did have a question though - You said that you molded Hulk; what material/product did you cast these out of? I use "Dragonskin Q" to make my rubber molds, I can't recommend it enough. I use regular old Alumilite resin to cast the piece. It's funny, the solid resin piece feels about the same weight as the hollow Lego Hulk piece. I thought my cast piece piece would be a heavy paperweight. Those look really cool and good, you gonna paint them or? Yes, of course. They would look silly otherwise.

The-Daryl Posted January 12, 2014 Rhino looks great, too! And the marbling (or whatever you want to call the dremmeled lines in the Thing) look fantastic. Can't wait to see them all lined up when they are done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rosalind14 Posted January 12, 2014 Do you plan on making any different ones? Are you just making the one of each or do you plan on making some extra cash?!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Warsman Posted January 13, 2014 Do you plan on making any different ones? Are you just making the one of each or do you plan on making some extra cash?!! My son has requested Juggernaut and Venom, and I want to try Kingpin. As far as selling, please shoot me a PM, we can talk there. This thread is only for displaying and talking about my customs, thanks! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
montgocloud Posted January 13, 2014 Such quality! I was afraid that once they were colored and printed that they wouldn't look so good but I can safely say that these look nearly identical to LEGO! I can't wait to see better pictures of these masterpieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Brickalot Posted January 13, 2014 Great Rhino! The Thing is looking sweet so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProtoChaud Posted January 15, 2014 Whoa. Those look great! Though I think The Thing's color's a bit off. Too dark, or maybe it's just the picture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickG Posted January 18, 2014 Still waiting on those photos ;). If I were to nitpick... keep in mind these are great and I nitpick everything... The Rhino is the best one so far. I'd blame the paint. It's got a smooth paint texture and isn't as shiny. The Red Hulk and Thing look shinier than usual. Also what method do you use? How the crap did you make these? I always feel that the best custom minifigures likes like never reveal how they're made. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobskink Posted January 18, 2014 These are very good and look like real lego. The one thing I don't like is the Thing's colour, the orange is to dark, you loose some of the detail because of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
