Hey everyone!
New to the page, but not new to collecting or customizing. I've honesty been repainting toys, or drawing pictures as far back as i can remember. I've as well started doing set buildig for my figures just to really make them stand out on my shelves.

I'm 100% self taught and look to offer some help or ideas on my youtube channel, as well show off some of the customs i do.

I recently found a really beat up Pink Shogun Zord, ad i mean beat up - no chrome left on it, the pink was turning yellow, so instead of neglecting it I picked it up for a low price of $1.00.

I didnt feel like spending cash on chrome spray paint so just hit the arm guards with silver
while prepping the piece the grey chest piece paint came right off so I am just trying to match that colour to finish this piece off, and as well finish paintig up the leg peice.

Hope you like it - also be sure to check out my youtube channel to see more customs and how to videos! http://tinyurl.com/ybn8opdn

Nice dioarama. Just putting the finishing touches on my first attempt.

Did you use foam insolation board?

Sure did,
I grab the half inch pink panther stuff for sets like this generally. Secured the walls with dowels instead of glue so if it gets purchased it disassembles into 3 sheets.

I should have thought of the dowel thing years ago, could have prevented a lot of damaged sets when moving around :(

Cool. I used magnets on mine in place of the dowels.

Also using the half inch sheets. Here is what I have so far...a few mistakes but its my first attempt so ive learned a few things. Still have a few things to finish up.

Will be for street level Marvel guys probably (Daredevil, Spidey, Punisher etc)...might do a photo shoot with my old Neca TMNT figures in there. Gotta finish my window, door , attach the rollup door, add some gas and hydro meters/boxes with pipes, mount a functioning light above the door, add some graffiti and build a dumpster...still a work in progress LOL

Next project will be a few roof tops of varying heights with accessories (water tower, chimneys, ventilation ducts)...then hopefully a warehouse room or something.

I have really enjoyed the build thus far and probably owe my new found interest to some of the ACBA guys on youtube (mostly Boog)...because I have become so jealous of their displays and photos. It makes for a more interesting display rather than just having figures lined up on shelves and in cabinets. I'm glad to see that there are others out there trying to push for cooler set ups as well.

I'm also anxiously awaiting on some bootleg Tamashii effects to arrive. Its gotten to the point where I have so many figures that, to me, its just a waste to not actually do something with them.

Also, are you using a sealant after paint? Im very scared of using one and melting the foam haha.

Re: KylerGrn Customs/Youtube/Art
 
i do seal everything with mod podge spray sealers, no melting on my end so far!
