    Been super busy lately and I have a now consistent customer in Vietnam who is a huge Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Fan. Here is Ninja Turtle Baddie Bebop! Started out as a Marvel Legends Bishop, attached and articulated a classic Bebop head on him and sculpted all the new details in including his pants straps and even his new jacket/vest. You'll also notice that instead of sculpted on chains I decided to go with real stainless steel for that nice authentic tough look. LOL Gave him some new weapons and his original Trashcan lid shield as well. Completely repainted in my favorite acrylic paints, Vallejo Game Color and satin sealed for that oh so perfect finish. Thanks for looking!

    Thanks!
    Sure did, client decided that he didn't want the ripped look so I went with some purple rope. LOL Most definitely twisted it myself. =D

    Tony, how did you do the real stainless steel? is that just a "cheapy" stainless steel necklace from a jewelry section at like Wal-Mart or Target? I gotta get inside tips for when I start my own kitbashing ^^

    now with the question out of the way... Holy crap o.o That bebop (and your rocksteady) are amazing figures!! The purple braids on his vest, the symbol on the back of said vest... o_O  the Stitching in his pants! *whistles* I am duly impressed by this figure, it's solid, professional. I'd definitely buy one had I the cash on hand. Also, kudos on his turtle-shell shoulderpads, they looked to be a bit troublesome to sculpt the awesome detail into

    Tony, I see you're going balls-to-the-wall with these TMNT toys. I say now, you should make a live-action TMNT toy! I'd wager Donatello since he's my fave, but it would be a treat to see any of them!

    Nice. I have him and Rocksteady, and all four turtles from the old playmates line. Their loose, but good.

    Thanks!
    Ordered some stainless steel chains online a while back for cheap, probably find the stuff on ebay or craft stores though or retail like you said. Thanks very much for the praise as well, fantastic to know people love all the details and subtleties in my customs.

    LOL Love that saying. Yes, yes I am am and with more to come. I am planning on doing up Necas Turtles in the cartoon style by fixing some of the skin colors and giving then the right color headbands and belts. Should be sweet.
    Thanks Bro! Sweet, I have some of my older stuff still including the pizza disc launching tank. Wish that still worked.
    ^_^
