dusting off the dremel

[boss]

I haven't made a custom figure in about a year. But today I dusted off the dremel and assembled some 8" muscle bodies and messed with some heads. I really wish one of the re-mego companies would make bodies like this. Mainly so I won't have to anymore. ;-)

Looks good.

Do you sell those bodies, Bryan?

[Legend of Link]

OMG, I hope you make a run of them.......

Not that I don't think the muscle bod is great, 'cos it is; but I am hoping for a skinny body from a remego companies one of these days.

I made a skinny body a few years ago, too. I think I sold 3.

I'm having some mold issues that have prohibited me from cranking these out like a did a few years ago. Right now I think I might have enough parts for 2 more bodies (which I'm keeping for myself). If I can figure out my mold problem, I may make a few more. They were $35 each back in the day.

Skinny sounds cool. Got any pics?

I've always thought Quicksilver would look better skinny.

Heads too big!

I'll fix it next year.

the man in the middle... (BTW, I made a spiderman with the skinny body and really liked the contrast with the beefier characters).

[TomStrong]

Those are awesome!

So that's where his red shorts went!

Those look fantastic! I'll take 1 dozen beefies and 1/2 a dozen skinnies...just kidding...kinda...as I would definitely be interested in buying some when you get the mold issue resolved.

Are your bodies solid, or do you use a slush-casting method?

[boss]

^^ Back in the day I slush cast a couple of torsos just to see how they would turn out. The majority are solid resin. The torso and pelvis need to be hollowed out.

Here's a blog entry from a while ago that shows the assembly process... http://swissfamilybossart.blogspot.c...-building.html
