Here is a quote from Rateeg on how it was made:Draco wrote:I like this indeed. i made a bunch of Marve characters from secret wars figures back in the early nineties which was real fun but now you can use articulated figures too. Cool.
Was this done with a Marvel Legends Cyclops?
"ive looked for a perfect base for him and found the XMC iceman with a good body and head. re-sculpted the visor, the head and a little more meat on the chest. after sculpting, i did the dry brush technique which had 5 layers of red from the darkest to the lightest. the final coat, ive mixed red with yellow to achieve the red/orange effect which solar costume usually has. the nuclear insignia was handpainted and added a little shade so it would look like it's cutout and glued."
