Some Customs
« on: June 29, 2014, 16:19:19 »
Rather than starting a bunch of different threads I will just lump together my customs in this one. I have a little group of customs done related to my current Carnival diorama.

First, one of those test your strength games.

strength by TimSpfd, on Flickr

It's the measuring stick and holder from the arctic dinosaurs theme, plus a wall clip holder piece from System X with a clip holding a small hammer. With a red SysX piece in the back of it, it balances nicely without anything else to hold it on. That is all put on a couple of layers of SystemX flat pieces to make a base. The light on top is from the Playmospace theme I had extra in my spares box. Stuck on top with a tiny bit of tacky putty.  Attendant from the space cars set behind it, a basket of teddy bears and it's set to go.

Appearing on stage right now is this Jazz woodwinds guy made up of the figure from the Asian Dragon Knights carry set, plus purple hair from the ghost pirate special and a black hat out of the spares box.

A very simple one, I wanted the Ferris Wheel attendant to handle the line at the Ferris Wheel so I needed a ticket taker. This is a mostly stock figure out of my modern themes fig box, with a green hat added. With the color scheme I think she works great for the carnival.

Also spotted at the carnival is a completely unrelated figure.

The Jackal - haven't really decided if he is a good guy or a bad guy or chaotic or what yet. Basic black body parts with accessories and then the head from Electro in the Figures series and the Anubis head mask from the Egyptians.

That's it for the time being. Thanks for reading

Indeed, the jackal is the man. He reminds me of batman, seems to me he's a superhero!  :)

Excellent set of customs to go with the fair ground theme, Tim.
