KodyKoala's Custom Luigi Action Figure
ekoala2002 | 8:42 AM on 10.07.2008 12 comments




Here is my latest custom, a Luigi action figure. I have been wanting to try my hand at making an action figure, but I could not find my inspiration. This is what I think Luigi would look like if her were real and on steroids. I made the overalls, shoes, and mustache from mighty putty. I got the hat from another Luigi figure that I picked up. I know this is a little out of my realm, so any criticism would help me the next time I decide to butcher an action figure...LOL. Check out more pictures on My Flickr Page

Great work dude, it reminds me of those gay oekaki depictions or Mario and Luigi looking buff. Perhaps next time you could tell us about the process /show pictures of the process so that we gain more understanding.

LOL, I have never seen that picture before. I got my inspiration from this picture:



I was actually thinking that I should have done a step by step, but I didn't realize until I was already halfway done...Maybe next time.

Nice work! It looks really good...

if you want some criticism... I am usually pretty good (or bad depending on your perspective) at it.

The arms and face are really detailed, but the legs, not so much... basically they don't work together as a whole.

The shirt looks like a bit too tight, ie, like you just painted over the body.

But still, lots of work, and it really does look frickin' Awesome!

Thanks Craineum, I thought about that when I was making it, but I also wanted the overalls to be a little big. I know when I wear overalls, I like them a little baggy. I did just paint over the body for the shirt. I sort of wanted it skin tight, but I think I would have to agree, maybe next time I will try to give it a little texture around the edges. Thanks!

If this doesn't go on Tomopop's front page, then nothing deserves to. XD

Thanks everyone, I am still trying to find a picture of the original figure, but I think it was some generic wrestling guy, so it will be hard to find a picture online. Unfortunately, I did not have the foresight to take a picture before I started working on it.
