Not too bad at all. It does a nice job as Shredder.

The overall execution of this figure is very nice, good parts selection, tight paint apps, nice mods to the helmet, etc. But I have to ask one question- if this is Shredder, where are all of the armor-mounted blades? They are a signature look of just about every incarnation of the character? Aside from the crest of the helmet, there is really nothing else that denotes this as being Shredder.

I like it.

I always had an idea to use :budo: to make Shredder, but this works very well as him.

WOW!! Looks great Fett! :) Nice shades of purple! That Sand Viper is a great base for the character! Can't wait to see your 'bladed' update!

I'm working on a Shredder too! It's gonna be the most dangerous toy EVER!!! I'm actually using 'real' razor blades 8-O !! It's been awhile in the work, but I do have one arm done, and now I'm looking for helmet ideas.........Where did you get the one your using? It looks doable for what I'm trying to accomplish. I don't think I'll be able to manage the tri-fined blade on his helmet in the manner I'm creating the character in! LOL!!
I'm even considering doing a version two using the helmet concept Shredder had in the movie, Secret Of The Ooze :D

Very nice work. You certainly captured his look. I love the helmet.

I politely disagree with Spectre. If this is a rendition of how Shredder would look if he joined Cobra than he doesn't HAVE to have his signature blades - since no other Cobra has blades, losing the blades is part of the adaptation. Adding the blades would make him look like a TMNT Shredder created using Cobra parts rather than an adaption.

But overall I'm just being contrary.

So why would he be the 'Shredder' then, instead of 'Random background guy with bad fashion sense #28'?

Thanks guys for the feedback! I Spend part of the day asking myself what would look good as blades on my custom. I could use some real blade like theunknown said, but I dont want to hurt myself wile I play with it. ;-) Any idea would be apreciated :-D

Oh, and for those who want to know the helmet is from GTG ;-)

Great rendition of Shredder,
for blades-- comic book divider plastic is just thick and ridged enough to be used for blades. the thickness would give you enough of a base to glue it on and have enough contact.
Great figure.

Great job!

So it's a Sand Viper body with JvC IG shoulder pads and Guillotine's head?
