Niners linemen (custom and painting)

[the french guy]

Hi,

My next projects after have done 49ers 2009 Center E. Heitmann, is to complete the line with the tackles and guards.

So I'll do mini replicas of :

LT : J. Staley #74
LG : D. Baas #64

RT : A. Snyder #68
RG : Chilo Rachal #62


The challenge is to realize them in the same amount of time I did Heitmann.

On the customizing level, I'll start with the FF.net positions figures, and I'll have little things to do with these :

- modifiying of helmet (to make it modern) and arms (big hulk arms for linemen)
- make the athletes bigger/fater (the FF.net linemen are too slim regarding real O line athletes, IMHO), the goal is to make the most impressive O line possible (see my center figure, add 4 linemen as big as him, and the warrior V. Davis...you get the idea )
-make unique faces of each player so we can recognize them more or less

On the painting side, it will be easy since I found my schemes on the first figure.


TO be continued, not tommorow I think, certainly friday...
