Custom Marvel Legends Titanium Man Figure by Central Cali Customs

Posted by Mig on Friday, March 14, 2008 @ 5:57 PM | PERMALINK | More Custom Figures: Custom Transformers | Custom Marvel Legends | Custom Star Wars | Custom GI Joe


Central Cali Customs has taken a great character from the Marvel Comics and brought it to life with his Custom Marvel Legends Titanium Man figure. The colors on this custom really pop and pay homage to the comic representation of Titanium Man. He chose a great shade of green and complimented it with a dark silver which goes nicely with the figure and gives it a fresh from battle look. The faceshield on the head is proportional and the copper goes great with the figure. Central Cali Customs describes his process so let's get into the head of this talented customizer:

Researching, the best suitable Action Figure to transform. For example: According to Cable's bio, he is 6ft 8in and 350 lbs. So, I would not use a HULK's body because he is 1,000 lbs.
  • Once you find all parts, then you Assemble and Sculpt
    This part is very fun......I used Apoxie Sculpt for a strong finish.

  • Prime the whole body.

  • Paint major parts with correct color accordingly. I do multiple paint 3 to 4 times. I used Testors Model Master Acrylic Flat color paints. These paints are non-toxic and lead free.

  • Wash with darker color to imitate shadow (Where needed).

  • Dry brush with lighter color to imitate highlights (Where needed).

  • Then detailing such as lines, logos, etc.

  • Last and not least, I used Testors Dull Cote (flat finish) to protect the paint.
  • Bid on this great Custom Marvel Legends Titanium Man on eBay today as there is only 2 days left!
