So I had to build a figure out of it.



"He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, and I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself"



I was inspired by the great looking Santa customs in the previous thread. But this one is really simple. Even I could do it! The ornament includes almost everything you need. Just carefully detach everything (the ornament is put together with hot glue) and reassemble on a Mego (or CTVT) fat body. The ornament's head is hollow, so if you are willing to sacrifice an old unloved head (goodbye, CTVT Fonzie...) you can turn it into Santa's neck plug. Throw in some black boots and you are set. ]]> Finished Customs sprytel http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=33252 http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=33239&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:30:16 GMT Here's another one of the figures from the Flash Gordon series I've been working on. I based this Vultan off the Alex Raymond comic and somewhat off the 70s Filmation character.

I retooled and then recasted a CTVT Space 1999 Mentor head by sculpting a larger beard and a helmet. I thought the Mentor head is especially appropriate because he was played by Brian Blessed who also played Vultan in the 1980 Flash Gordon movie.

The body armor is from the CTVT Knight series as are most of the accessories. I made new shoulder armor and then casted it out of resin. The wings were an issue. I originally wanted to use Doc Megos foam wings, but when they arrived, I noticed they were really thick and had a strange edge to them. I then wanted to use DC Universe Hawkman wings (which I still might), but I haven't purchased him yet. I ended up building a wing pattern in PhotoShop and putting it on matboard. I added a rivet so the wings can open up. They're pretty Megolike, I think.

MYSTERIO!



Wasn't so much stoked about the outdoors picture, so I moved the operation indoors.



This one is MYSTERIO TRIUMPHANT! Or at least MYSTERIO TRIUMPHANT (for about ten seconds before Spidey breaks the chains and uh, "cracks Mysterio's fishbowl" for the umpity umpth time.



This is Mysterio hatching his next evil scheme. "Maybe I'll shoot myself in the head just to show Daredevil how hardcore I am."



This probably seems pretty random, but I didn't have any good boots for him, so I actually made a mold of a set of 10" JLU Superman feet. When I screwed them onto the bottom of the legs, I couldn't get them straight so that he could stand up. I used some 3/16 gauge aluminum armature wire. It gives the ankles the ever-so-slightest bit of flexibility---at least enough to get him to stand up.

Some of this stuff is Mego, some not. I hope thats cool.

We'll start with Mego though. For years I had a Dina Mite in an old beat up Superman suit as my Supergirl. I never much cared for Mego Supergirl's costume so I never got her. Last week I was looking at my Mego's and looked at my "Supergirl" and decided it was time to do something about her outfit. So I made one. I did this by hand. Next time I'll use a sewing machine. Regardless, I think she turned out pretty good :)




Next is Super Powers Batman. I found one at a flea market over the summer for a buck. He was dirty, beat up, missing his cape, and had a broken leg. I gave him a makeover but decided to go with a Neil Adams look. I wish I had a before pic to show how beat up he was.



Lastly, General Zod. He used to be Starman. But I sculpted on some new clothes and painted him up. He's more like a young Zod with that hair.

Vultan, Thun and Dale Arden are in the works. I based this figure off the Alex Raymond comics.

Head is a resin cast shrunk Mego Zarkov head from Paul Evans. I then painted it based on the Mego head. Body, accessories and clothes are mostly CTVT.

Ming is a combination of the Mego figure, Alex Raymond's comic Ming and the 1970s Filmation version. I decided to make this figure green to look more like the Mego and Filmation Ming.

I got the Mego resin cast head from Paul Evans and sculpted on a helmet and the creature on top of it. I then recasted and painted it. Most of the other parts are from Dr. Mego and CTVT.

I'm still planning to make a Vultan (winged guy) and a Thun (Lion man)

I've been short on time, so this is the first set of customs I've done in a while. I wanted to make the figures reminiscent of the Mego 10" figures, the Alex Raymond comic series and also the 1970s cartoon. This is my version of Flash Gordon. The head is a resin cast of the Mego Flash painted by me. I'll post more Flash Gordon characters shortly.
