Well I have slowly been running out of source material for new female customs, that is until I found some of the Brock Lee Artwork. I liked some of his gender changed female figures so I have been letting some of the guys in the chat room choose a figure for me to make. For anyone not familiar with the Brock Lee art i will post a link to appropriate character for each figure.

First up is Vypra, she was chosen by Taliesin Crow. I wanted to go with a more shiny look to her outfit so I ended up painting then entire body chrome then using a pearl blue paint over the chrome.

Next up is Croc Mistress chosen by Bad Ash. She was somewhat more difficult because I had to try and sculpt a mask that looked similar to the art but still be removeable because I wanted to have a female face underneath.

Then the last one for now is Skidmark chosen by Silent Master. Pretty much a straight foreward figure, the worse part was having to dremel all those straps off the Lady Jaye torso.

I alos managed to fix a few customs up that I have been working off and on for a couple months now. First up is Devils Due Jinx. Although I consider her done at the moment, I still may go back and change a few things on her.



Lastly is my Zanya figure. I finally got around to painting the GTG Zanya head and switched out the heads on her and finished her up as well. The piercings were a pain to paint even with a small brush but I think her head turned out well.




Again any comments and criticism is welcome, I have been known to go back and change a few things on some figure with input from you guys please feel free to post.

Wow, Carn, looking good. I remember seeing your WIP Vypra pics in chat. They looked great, but your finished figure is a whole level above that. The level of detail and polish gives it a production look. Nice work, on all of these customs.

Color me impressed!

There is absolutely nothing I can see that needs fixed.

Are you going top continue making customs based on Brock Lee's designs?

(please say yes.....)

Some damn fine work there, .looking forward to seeing more.

Vypra looks really good...I love what you've done whit that blue paint....not sure I'm sold on Brock's design...but you stayed true to it.

The other girls all look like they could be a little bit cleaner...I know it's not easy...I suck at keeping those fine lines strait and even too...but especialy on Skidmark, Jinx, and Zyana the likes are actualy distracting from the rest of the quality of your work and painting.

Yes, theres still a bunch I want to do.



I was thinking the same thing as soon as I posted the pics of them. I just got back from Michaels and picked up a few 18/0 brushes so I can go back over the stripes on them and fix them all. My old 18/0 are just about worn out so the lines didnt come out as crisp as I would have liked.

Nice job all around. Is Croc Mistress supposed to be topless with the little swamp things (I don't know what you'd call it, moss?) covering her?

Is there still Brock Lee art around? I don't have enough memory of his Sgt. Slaughter designs to work on a custom...

Some one in chat found a bunch of them on Photobucket awhile back so I ended up saving them on my Home computer. Below is the link of where I got them all from if you are interested:
