Another figure I decided to do my own version of, instead of buying the expensive one (and overrated at that). As soon as I saw the Odin figure shown at SDCC last year, I knew those boots were perfect. The torso was so-so. Upon release, I tried using other ways of having a more comic-accurate torso, but couldn't figure out a way without extensive work and resculpting. In the end, I settled on sculpting many parts myself whilst keep the upper torso the same (despite being nothing like it is in the comics). Recipe: Head/Helmet: Casts of Ares BAF Body: Odin I sanded and sculpted over the lower torso, making a belt in the process to be more like the BAF. Painted black below the belt, sculpting straps and making a dagger/pouche from fodder. I used the Destroyer arm with the normal Odin hand, painting it closer to the comic colours. Sculpted onto the left hand, and the thing on the right forearm. The spikes on the knees and right arm are cut off cocktail sticks and glued on. A LOT of work here. Finally I painted the eyes to look dark and shadowy, but with the eyes glowing as he's enraged. Sword is from fodder, and the axe is repainted. Oh and lastly, I decided to leave the holes in the shoulders. It would involve sculpting over, then painting them to match the skintone and possibly doing more work than I wanted, which may mean repainting all flesh parts. But it doesn't bother me for my display needs, so never mind! Thanks for looking! ![]() |

Your is very clean
I'm a fan of the distressed/weathered look like the Punisher logo when it's sprayed on his armour. You can easily make it stand out by carefully painting it like it's been scuffed from repeated battles etc, which helps if you're not comfortable doing crisp logos that can take too long.
