Yeeee Haw!

I'm still making customs out of the few parts I have left. I've been relegated to drivers, but Wild Bill is a pretty integral character. I'm quite happy with this custom. I feel it plays off of his original look (from the cartoon) and is still updated to look more like a modern rodeo star with the padded flak jacket look. I also feel that the handle bar mustache with reflective aviator sunglasses and off-white hat were the way to go with him.

 

Let me know what you think.

[revsears]

I like it! i wonder if he will make the 25? orginal torso idea their, i've seen it used for a lot of guys, but never this texan.

[Bekker]

I like it,but i think if you painted the hands to match the jacket it would look perfect.If you couldnt see the sculpt marks in it it wouldnt be to bad.

 

Great idea and that torso works great fot Old wild bill.

Nice job Wayne!

[zweiman]

i like that you didnt try to do too much with him. its a nice simple design and matches the cartoon colors. nice job, wayne.

[preacher]

i think its awsome

[JFAK075]

Very nice work here. What head did you use??

[Wayne Sneeden]

The head is Shipwreck from the Vvs.V series. I added the glasses and mustache.

Very cool custom man. I like it alot. I hope he makes it in the 25. But this really is cool, good work buddy.

[PhoenixSword]

great custom....as always! keep it up.

Its a great Wild Bill wayne nice work, i agree with Bekker his hands would look better painted as gloves

[DPrime]

O-ring style? You're living in the past, get with it man.

 

Just kidding, great custom. Wild Bill was always a favourite. I agree though - gotta paint those glove details.

[Riker]

speaking of such things, i bet you hardcore custom makers can't wait to start poppin the 25th aniv. figures into pieces!

 

wayne, what kind of paint do you use? it has a very platic...ey look to it.

and mess them up, so early into their poor little lives? what r u on man? lol jk @smilepunch@

I don't think I'll be poppin any of these figs apart any time soon, but thats me and I'm not a big customizer, I just mess around with it

[Wayne Sneeden]

I don't know if I'm going to be poppin any 25th anniversary figures apart....unless they are cheap enough. I'll stick to the new sculpt.....or what I guess we'll have to start calling old-new sculpt.

 

PhoenixSword, I use testors Model Masters Acrylic paints on about 95% of my work. The other 5% is Tamiya.

Nicely done...I like it.

I think some fingerless gloves would work well here. Or sand off the mold deteils on the hand. Other than that its great. Nice work on the sculpting. I recognized the head but it makes a perfect WB. Is the left leg a modded Wild Bill leg or did you use another figure's leg?
