Jin Saotome's Dangerous Gambit Coat Swap!

Recommended Posts

I know everyone nowadays is doing a Gambit Coat swap, so here's mine. Use an ML Gambit, XMC Gambit hands, Movie Dr. Octopus collar, and a Xmen Movie Cyclops asst 2 arms.

 

You take Cyclops, swipe his arms from the shoulders down, and his coat. Heat up Gambits shoulders and pop them out, Cyke's are a perfect fit. Cut off Doc Ock's collar and glue it on the coat. Heat the hands and replace them at the pins, again a perfect fit. Drybrush the jacket/arms with Testor's Fantasy series Sloth Brown, then use the Citadel Chestnut Wash. Fix the hands up so they don't have those little circles on them and paint the fingers. Poof, yer done! I made him some mini playing cards in a few seconds out of poster board. You can choose to fill in the hole in the back of the coat if you want with Apoxie Sculpt or Apoxie clay.

Wow that is impressive. The coat is so much cooler than the ones he normally comes with. If I was any good at customs I'd attempt it, but I'd most certainly mess it up. Real novel idea you got there. Just one question: Can he still move around well?

 

Yep, his articulation isn't hindered at all! I also think the coat looks way cooler sticking out from the back when you pose him leaping too.

Hmmmm, longer hair you say? And I'm also liking the duster-shoulder look of the jacket in the above sig. Maybe I can cook something up.
