I was just going to post a thread to show off my customs and repaints as I finish them, but I figured it might be a good opportunity to encourage others to show off customs and repaints they’ve made as well. So if you’ve got an action figure that you’ve repainted or modified in some way to make a custom action figure, by all means, post it here!
Here’s the first of what will hopefully be many repaints I’m doing to make action figures of my favorite characters into members of the Green Lantern Corps. Since Green Lanterns hail from virtually everywhere, I figured it’d be cool to extend that coverage to other universes… such as Marvel. First figure I chose to repaint… the Marvel Legends Gambit.
Found him at Texas Comicon, no box or accessories, I coun’t myself lucky that he came with the coat. Gave him a new metal staff made from a section of aluminum tube I had leftover and made a quick and dirty playing card with a GL symbol on it… I’ll make better cards for him later, I promise. Paints used were just cheap acrylic paint you can find in the Walmart craft section, can’t remember the brand name. Less than a buck a bottle, can’t beat that with a stick.
More to come as I find other figures I want to repaint into my custom GL Corps. Anyone else want to show off their custom figures, please feel free.
See what I did there?
