The Ice Man Cometh!!!

[kalel]

and now the long awaited arrival and completed full blown custom that has ripped my brain of any lasting sanity

i give you: Mr Freeze









PS: this was my first attempt at using a proper back drop and set up for a photoshoot so sorry if pics aren't great

[homunculus]

Looks really good! Would be better with the Action Man logo removed though:D Costume looks great and I like the iced pic.

[kalel]

cheers

yeah i am trying to figure out away to get rid of it

i guess you could say he's only 98% done but i am happy with him as is anyway

[Figuremaster Les]

Just paint over the emblem! ;D

[glow=red,2,300]Looks GREAT Kalel! [/glow]I love him!
Too bad you weren't in on the old Mr. Freeze Figure Challenge way back when we had that.
He would have fit right in!

This is yet another clever meditation on Mr. Freeze. It was a brave move to step away from the usual pallette of blues and grays. This Mr. Freeze looks gritty with a para-military approach. He seems like he would be at home lurking about the dark corridors of the Nostromo. Nice work and I love that photoshop blast picture at the end- very dynamic and effective!

[kalel]

thanks PM

I currently have him in a different jumpsuit while i work on that dang logo ;D

[phantom11]

Nicely done, Kalel! Good combination of parts, and the headsculpt looks perfect for the character! Good luck with that logo; having tried to take a couple of 'em off various outfits myself, I can tell you it's a real bear...

[kalel]

thanks Phantom

i have decided to put off my batman figure for now while i work out some kinks with the design so Freeze and Scarecrow will all you will see of my work for now

once i post scarecrow

I may post a henchman every now and then though

[captainmego]

dude im sorry I thought a comented on this already...i think he looks outstanding...you really did a great jiob on this guy,,,i really like all the details you put into him. very nice work

[kalel]

no worries mego and thanks for your opinion

i am quite pleased with how he turned out myself

now the second i find his right hand i will post Scarecrow who has been done for close to 2 months now had him finished in 4hrs but his hand disappeared still looking for it grrr

also i will be starting work on some other characters soon also

[Wild Willy]

This is awesome Kalel, the wait was well worth the payoff!
I absolutetly love the boots and the shoulder armour, they look good together. The jumpsuit design is a [glow=red,2,300]"cool choice"[/glow] and it works great for this character.

I like the Goggles beneath the dome but its a shame to hide the excellent paint job which you had done on the eyes but overall, it looks awesome!

Great work dude and I also love the "icey spray" shot.

Will

[kalel]

cheers Will

Yes it came together better then I thought not bad for someone who has so many ideas in their head its hard to determine where to begin ;D

[kalel]

Bump:

Currently updating this guy once again, stuck on the helmet though

Edit: Can't believe it has been 5 years wow
