WIP: Rogue, 6 Month Gap

Yellow Week continues with a custom that went really quickly because the color scared me into a simple approach. But that’s okay; I like how this turned out, and it took only a few hours over a few days.


I showed the WIP for Rogue a few days ago, and talked about where this costume comes from. The base is ML6 Phoenix, because all the major colors match up. I needed to sand down the shoulders to prevent paint rub, but their shape now approximates that of newer sculpts like Psylocke and Wasp, so I’m happy. I’ve added some milliput to the tops of the boots and gloves to break up the lines of the limbs and make things a tad more interesting. The face and neck is XTreme Rogue, with DCSH Supergirl bangs and a Wildcats Zealot ponytail.

Holy crap, this is the last day of Yellow Week! And as I sat around in training this week at work, I thought up a plan for making March X-Men Month here at Glued Fingers. I have all these X-Men customs planned, mostly to mesh with the X-Men figures announced by Hasbro at the Ney York Comic Con, so I'll get them all out the way this month. Ergo, I've got to post at some point.

Sad thing is, I've been really productive and have a lot of material for this blog, but all my dremelling, epoxying, and the like have kept me away from my computer. So, March is X-Men month, and I'll get into things next week with a finished Mimic, an Astonishing Beast, a modern Nightcrawler, and other stuff in blue and yellow.
