    Hello, this is my MP scale(?) IDW whirl from mtmte comics, what a funny and interesting character...
    So, this is a kit bash with styrene for some sculpt, legos and 3D printed head. And this is transformable, forced but it works haha
    In some other thread i will introduce you to my custom IDW figures in my own scale, i hope it works well
    Now i will post the finished figure, then i will post the process.
    Check out my other customs on my profile! Thanks and God bless you all.

    Painting...
    In this process i had problems with the arms, the paint doesn't stick to the surface so I had to make new ones and it was for better! IMG_20210527_020328.jpg IMG_20210508_224503.jpg IMG_20210527_020346.jpg IMG_20210528_003339.jpg

    Well that's just damn near perfect! And definitely the first time I have ever seen Legos used in a custom figure without immediately losing interest. I couldn't even tell until halfway through the alt mode pics.
