Custom Stikfas Horse Kit Challenge.

I created a challenge to create a custom out of the horse kit. It's one of the kits seldom used.

Here are the two bashes I came up with:

Twyk 002

and


TNKR-X 006

TNKR-X 005

Dragon Elite

I always wanted to make a dragon warrior. I came up with this bash:


Dragonite 002

Worked on a little on him and added some weapons and change some parts a bit. Also added a lil bit of paint.

Dragon Knight WIP 004

Waiting on a couple of parts, most likely going to be painted next week.

Customizer's Notes:
- Used most of the dragon kit.
- put the hind feet on the neck with the beta warrior shoulder pads.
- trimmed off a peg inside the horse saddle and made those as shoulder pads.
- super glue some waist connectors and horse connectors as design for shoulder
- sanded another waist connector for the waist, added the beta waist guard and MA weapon.
- I used mechana hands, also added the two mechana exhaust at the tip of tail.
- swords are made of knight's lance, slightly bend and covered with tape and painted.

Sculpture: Tiger (Bday Gift)

It's one of my friend's bday. After seeing my other sculpts...she requested a tiger.


Tiger 016

Also made a makeshift box. lol. (Guess what it's made of)

Tiger 013

Hope she likes it ^_^

Sculptor's notes:
- I managed to do the whole thing within a day now. It used to take a couple of days for drying when it's foggy. (a lot of time waiting on drying, good thing it's sunny)
- I used tootpicks to connect different parts really helps. My dragon wings keeps falling of due to lack of internal support.
- Painting it wasn't hard....I first put a base coat of white...then proceed with orange. then a little detailing of white, black. I was going to put a clear gloss paint, but a friend suggested to keep it matte like that but paint the nose to have that wet look.
- I attached fishing lines for the whiskers.
- You notice the fangs? guess what's that made of? It's something i use a lot for painting...
- Box is made from 1 sheet of transparency. It's a rough construction, but serves its purpose.
