Hello again my friends , the next project I bring was the result of me trying and failing to fix a Japanese Go Nagai Devilman series Satan figure , I got this rare item at a local con early December ($10) out of package and with one broken wing (legs were not too good either) but in my overconfidence was certain I could fix it (just some glue , right?) WRONG!! , the figure was a transparent black version , and ALL the joints were loose , tried several times to fix both the joint and the wings , but it seems the plastic had an oil base to it that did NOT mix with the glue at all , finally after using an entire tube of glue lock the knees (had to for weigh support) and the broken wing and to be on the safe side lock the "good" one too and let rest a whole night , next morning to surprise disaster happened , it glued fantastically , but the "good" wing had slide backwards and was lock I the wrong position ruining everything , tried to move it and simply snapped in my hand and the knees did take the glue either , mad , frustrated and actually not too crazy about the dual sex body or the length of the limbs nor it's way too dark color (lets face it , it was cool but ugly too!) , I included a net pic of it in the upper right corner of the collage photo as comparison , so I did the second thing any reasonable customizer would do , I dismantled the whole thing and re-created as a new figure or at least a version 2.0 , luckily all this happened the same day I created my 2 previous customs and had the torso of the Marvel Select Black Widow (whose limbs and head were used for them) and the size and fit was amazingly near perfect , but how to glued all together , using lots more of glue and hoping for the best , god smile on me this time and after a whole day it finally dried and the figure was completed , however I had to lock almost all the joints for stability , then after seen in the corner of my eye my Lady Frankenstein custom knew just how to paint her (yes now it was FULLY FEMALE!) skin tone! , even the face very carefully , by the way if you notice I inverted the wings , they fit the figure nicely and look cooler this way.
Maybe it's my Christian upbringing but really don't like the original name but at the same time didn't want to deviate too much from the original concept , thus the name NATAShiel , the original backwards with the addition of "shiel" to make sound angelic , as for her being and "Ascending Deamon" , I made that up , if there are "Falling Angels" why not backwards , a demon wanting to be good and return to heaven (in my lore the most they aspire is to become us , human , lose their powers eventually , be mortal again and re-gain a soul , thus if they behave , repent and do good in their new life , they get a chance to go to Heaven when they die.
So guys , please tell what you think of this little project that got WAY over my head , all opinions are welcome , Thanks and "Hasta a vista , Baby!"

Please wait...
