That is pretty AWESOME.

Sounds like this might be a job for .................

The FRENCH GUY and his trustee sidekick - Green Stuff!



And now, upon second review,
I noticed its all hand painted. Nice job on these.

Do have an entire team looking like this?

Cool figures !

What do you want to do ? Add a helmet on their head ? The only way I see is to sculpt them...but it will be quite tuff. You would better have only sculpted their face and keep the original helmet (easier).

If you want to add a side helmet (on their arms or whatever) you probably could cut a figure head, remove the plastic inside then glue a facemask on it.


Please explain what you want to do

So you have to sculpt it over their head or cut the head, keeping the faces only, and add a cutted helmet...it will be a tuff job in the two cases


Why did you remove all the helmet and not only the face ? You want to have removable helmets ?

It's a good idea, but difficult to realize
