this game is so much fun (so many fun ways i’m getting my ass air-juggled)

took me a while but here it is all 38 announced characters till release (including the DLC ones)

Captain America, Akuma, Deadpool, Albert Wesker, Doctor Doom, Amaterasu, Dormammu, Arthur, Hulk, Chris Redfield, Iron Man, Chun-Li, Magneto, Crimson Viper, M.O.D.O.K., Dante, Phoenix, Felicia, Sentinel, Hsien-Ko, She-Hulk, Jill Valentine, Shuma-Gorath, Mike Haggar, Spider-Man, Morrigan Aensland, Storm, Nathan Spencer, Super-Skrull, Ryu, Taskmaster, Trish, Thor, Tron Bonne, Wolverine, Viewtiful Joe, X-23, Zero

ooh, got tired of even just writing their names in (and i just copy/pasted from wiki, i pretty much had to put commas and space, and i still got tired just to read all those names) so imagine how overwhelming it is to take care of so many characters in the same composition!
but it was a lot of fun, i tried to come up with ways of portraying each one in a fun in-character way
btw if you find any mistakes lemme know, so i can edit later

ps: if you wanna find my ass to kick, i’m grungethemovie on psn ^_^

yeah, i’m using this as wallpaper, you can too if you so wish, i’d be really glad

this is marvel vs capcom, so all your characters are belong to us, or, i mean, all characters belong to capcom, if not, they belong to marvel, but i drew them, that makes it fan art

if you like this, you can send me a dollar so i can buy a fighting stick food

A No-brainer that i would make a Hugh Jackman eventually, right?

the story is fun though, as always, filled with rage against the machine and thrilling adventure!

I must say that after i left my statue attempt (circa 2002?) i had no real intention of ever getting back to the ol’ canucklehead, but after making Patrick Stewart Professor X, i watched the movies and kinda got turned on on HAVING a wolverine (on on?)

see, marvel select was going to release a Wolverine Origins figure that didn’t look that bad in the previews, i was like, yeah i can rework the face and give him a jacket, its a 7 inch-ish wolverine with amazing sculpt and articulation, right?

WRONG

as toy companies usually do, they messed up, the scale was not right, the proportions were toy-ish and sincerelly, it looked like a re-used marvel legends, there was no attention to textures(like the wife beater), the details (like the belt) well, it looked barely like the actor…

so after a long time trying to figure out what i would do with those beautiful muscular naked men the answer appeared to me in a wet dream

OF COURSE, the ufc figures would not fit the scale and proportions i wanted, so i had to start by restructuring the buck to mr jackman’s body (no compromising adjective here)

since i could not just find old xmen movie figures to steal the jacket, i had to come up with something my own – i must confess i did think of tailoring one from scratch – i just didnt think i would be able to XD

but yeah, i did tailor a custom 1/10 1/12 jacket out of leather- and it was crazy fun

inside jeans jacket made of – guess? – jeans, the wife beater using a sock(not a used sock, i bought one just for it ok?) but the interesting part is the shirt

you see(you, who im talking to?) i have this high-risk modus operandi like “i’ll either ruin it or end up with something really great” so yeah, i knew i wanted the shirt – i just had no idea how i would make it XD

so, walking outside to make my ideas clear (and my lungs not) i figured out that i could use a christmas ribbon – what would be perfect if we weren’t so past christmas already…

lucky me, someone in my neighborhood didnt feel like fighting the snow to take their decoration off

here, close stranger, is the public thank you for helping a delinquent find a way into rightness through art

so, blame geekness or gayness, i sculpted wolverine shirtless, and made 4 layers of removable clothing over

it’s cool cause i can play X-men1:

“And still the king of the cage…the Wolverine”

X-men 2:

“You wanna shoot me, then SHOOT me–!! *snik-snikt*”

X-men 3:

“You should have killed me when you had the chance!” See, i’m so funny cause i’m citing Magneto and being really smart meaning the third movie is sooo great

Which brings me to, now my X-men movie collection that previously consisted of a lonely professor, now has an addition and i plan on making a Mags to close it

And enough talk (thank you and congratulations if you done so far – whaddahell, thank you so much for stopping by here are some pictures:

OH yeah, almost forgot! the claws are made of my credit card

PS: yeah, i forgot to post wip pictures

So, Last time i talked about how it takes a love match for me to make me some figures

This time, i made it out of pure hate!

Don’t get me wrong though, i actually love Nariko and think she could be one of the most iconic gaming girl characters, and by the promotion pics from DC Direct Unlimited i already knew that she wouldn’t look quite right. But they started postponing the release so many times that i actually hoped they would do something with it, you know? I thought i would have to see her to judge

However, if you’ve seen the released figure, you share my disappointment

I should have some comparison/before-after pics, but i was so overwhelmed with rage that i could not wait any second to rip that face off

so, you gotta trust these reviews for images OAFE and  someguoyonyoutubeiwon’tpretendlikeiknewbefore

since they’re getting free publicity (oh yeah, everytime i come in i’ll be hitting those links, so you better have your bandwidth prepared) i’m gonna rant on them too

one says the face is “nice” and the other blames society, but i think they miss the point:

1. She doesn’t look like Nariko
2. She does not look any asian
3. The face doesn’t even look good

So, i tried my best to come up with somewhat of a “mod”, i didn’t want to go all frankenstein and allnighter on her, that’s what i got

PS: I guess i can say i successfully achieved number 2 at least

PS2: yes Heavenly Nariko is that other site i always like to mention

PS3: only on

Whoever knows me personally, knows how seldom I make custom figures. It takes a passion for a specific subject to meet and match my love for action figures.

When I first saw Enslaved ( on Heavenly Nariko, when I bought Heavenly Sword – also by Ninja Theory) I fell in love by its atmosphere (i know it sounds corny, but it’s true) and Monkey, the main character (I might have a thing for buff-sensitive-macho characters) and I thought ” hey that’s a good use for a savage dragon” I must admit I searched around even for UFC figures for him ( I must also admit that I can’t punctuate my sentences right)

I finally got the game and just by starting the first 30 minutes or so, I knew I HAD to make a Tripitaka too (after playing the demo dozens of times i wasn’t still very sure) and after the Aquarium scene (no spoilers here) I confirmed that savdrag’s wonderful articulated fingered huge hands would be a perfect match

It would be pretty much a as-long-as-it-takes project, but then they announced on Facebook that they would have a contest – and I do believe deadlines are of help to an artist as the process of finishing a piece is pretty much the time you give up

funny story is, i did mess up the due date and ended up not even entering the contest XD whadahell… anyway…

Getting the figures at my fav store (after a quick internet search for what to use for Trip – new Elektra seemed a pretty popular base – and they had it there) I stumbled upon the amazing x3 movie beast legs

I extended the waist and gave it a custom ball joint (pretty tricky) as I believe Monkey’s capoeira torso is one of hos most recognizable features, and dremeled the hell out the rest to get his right silhouette

I think from that is history, recipe is:

Monkey:

• -Legendary Heroes Savage Dragon waist up
• -X3 movie Beast waist down
• -staff is a pencil
• -sash is cloth
• -belt is EVA

How cool is that? How many figures you know that can actually hold this pose?

Trip:

• -Hasbro Skrull Elektra
• -belt is also EVA
• -dragonfly is wire and sculpt
• -screen is printed on transparency (thats a nice story, i first thought of painting it and actually thought it would be faster then cleaning a screenshot- duh!- I recreated it on photoshop)

Oh, the base!

I felt I really needed to represent the game’s beautiful environments in a way, so I got what I liked most and felt would represent it well – I really like the ship’s wings (also around on the bridge and when you meet Pigsy) and what I felt is one of the best boss’ fights ever – the way the tension builds until you face the C-Dog the first time is just delicious

so, it’s pretty much a Legends Sabretooth Sentinel base that I had laying around, some probably Spiderman base (for the sign – not to spoil anything, I think there’s a good nod if you played the game) sculpted the C-Dog (I confess, with Mighty Putty for its fast dry)

check them also on my deviantart(here and here) it’s fun to see the +fav thing go up

Bonus fun: Guess what these two guys have in common (oh yeah, and I hooked up eddie a base to rock on top)

Thank You Ninjas for Twitting!

not even sawyer dante from dmc 4 after all…

I put “new” in quotations because I think most fans are failing to realize what this could mean. Ok, I am totally gay for usual Dante too! So how could that be that they’re doing a  complete remake of the series and change our beloved ass-whooping devil-slasher into a some brit punk kid!?

wait a sec…oh! Has anyone stopped to think that this “new” kid is way younger then the Dante we are used to playing?
And that DMC3 was hardly Dante’s awakening, and more of a “hey Dante’s a bit younger and he’s fighting his brother”?
And how sincerely, if your father is a demon and your mother died, you would be a pretty eff-d up kid in his place?
And how there’s must be a midpoint to the world we know and hell all around?
And how his hair is halfway silver?

Come on!

So, fans are calling Capcom CRAPCOM when they could very well be giving us the most amazing gift for DMC’s 10th anniversary next year:
a well made story driven origin (by the talented Ninja Theory – and if you don’t think their stories are good, you have to at least agree they CARE about their narrative)

Or it could be something completely different…
Maybe Dante and lady hooked up, huh?
Anyway, i have hope. I think this direction is refreshing, new, and really exciting news; and i wish the developers the best of luck!

I wanted to see how she would look like in the new template

I needed some blue around here

i’m really glad it worked out

lights up with a press (actually 2, since there’s a flickering mode) and i even got that useless amazing base to frame my dvd

ha! [link]
