Also, I realized I mentioned the bust mannequin, but never got back to it in the video. So here is a link to the one for sale on my store.

Really helpful for newcomers like myself. The mannequin and foam tape were something I hadn't thought of. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Going to have to grab one of those pen drills. Thanks for the pointer!
pen drill also know as a pin vice. useful to know if your looking for one.
This was great. Thanks so much for doing this. I look forward to future videos.
Thank you for sharing this most important of information. About 90 percent of the figures that I get even 100% complete can many times need things from other sets or just don't look right so I have to tweak things here or there. I used to have a book that was made in the late 90's - 2000's it was originally in German and gave a bunch of hints for weathering figures to help them have that realistic edge to things just out of the box trying to make things not identical.
Happy that these videos are of help :D That books sounds awesome and I want it!
very helpful look forward to more
I was thinking of using a foam tape roll to add a belt for a costume. :)
Awesome. Thank you. I convert 40K minis and I want to step up my game and make my own original characters.
I hope you do more kitbash videos like this. Hell most of my Nolan stuff other than Batman joker are mainly kitbashes. I know 1 thing at least as far as clothing is concerned in 1/6 poptoys is the very best for kitbashes
I also use fishing weights to hang pouches correctly : )
You probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream all of the new movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend recently =)
@Jack Toby Yea, I've been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself =)
@Jack Toby Yup, I've been using InstaFlixxer for since december myself =)
@Jack Toby Yea, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
Cool.
Can you please make a collection video
Haven’t got through all the videos yet. What do you use to “glue” the insignia on the figures. Just got a German general. All of his badges come separately. Need help. Don’t want to wreck anything, they’re not cheap. Thank you.
How do you weather metal helmets?
Thank you for this. I'm embarrassed to say how many pieces I've broken because I've clumsily handled them.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
how do you remove the legs from the figures?
You should do a Brent Taylor figure
where did you get those vests?
hello my friend, is there this stand / torso to buy in the shop?!
I'm urgently needing a few
best regards
Do.you use Foam sheet or Epoxy Clay's
Thank you for this... I got tired of 400 500 700 figures , it's just too much , kitbashes are the cheaper way to go ,one thing bugs me are the connection points such as hand foot pegs etc sometimes they don't fit because the pegs too big or too small , also wonder what are the best bodies to use? Ganghood dam toys hottoys worldbox phicen jioua etc? Right now it's taking me years to find a good body type and skin tone for my 9th and 10th Dr from Dr who ... I can't seem to match anything because David Tennant so dam skinny and the 9th doctor Chris eccleston so pale nothing matches up. Also trying to do a spare 1/6 bionic man but since I bought the supermad figure but can't find the right body type for Steve Austin I thought maybe a wolverine body work. I was thinking the sideshow Indiana Jones body be perfect but the foot pegs are weird because there bigger than most foot pegs.
Do.you ever use Hot Glue
Hey! Thanks for the video! what would you recommend using if I accidentally broke a figures elbow joint on a Hot Toys?
D1zzik you’ll have to replace the joint I’m afraid.
WHERE DO WE GET THOSE MANNEQUINS??!
ik I'm like a year late, but please, make a bf4 russian assault kitbash, if u can, I've been looking for one for years, just please
