Iceman is back and this time he's come straight out of the Age of Apocalypse! I've tackled this figure before almost a decade ago and it's time to revisit him again for a completely updated look. To create this AOA styled Iceman I used a ML Drax upper body, Anti-Venom lower arms and back spikes, medium ML buck lower body, and Scarlet Spider feet. A resculpted Moon Knight head was perfect for his no-face look and I used powerful disc magnets to attach his body halves so he could be taken apart. For this reason I created a special lower body based on the comics using a Namor water-base with ice effects sculpted on. This gave Iceman an incredible snake-like form that really fits the character and can be swapped out with normal legs. I used a combination of light blue, dark blue shading, and frosty white airbrushed effects for his paint job which gave him an amazingly smooth ice-like look. Now this is an AOA Iceman that will stand the test of time yet again!

Hey, nice to see you tackle an AoA Iceman after SO long!
Was a time, years ago, when you were the only one going after a blocky, spikey Iceman. Boy, you've come a long way.
This is outstanding, and the fancy paint sure helps sell it, but I love the build on it. Really nice.

Holy smokes. I've seen several versions of the character, but thi is easily the best and most dynamic. Superb use of the fodder and +100 points for creativity. And I agree, that paint job is very impressive.

Not too shiny or matte? I was waffling between how to make the ice look, but glossy was the best choice I'm thinking. Wish we had a separate section in the comments to post WIP shots or images in our replies.
