The Customs Thread

Got any customs? Seen any cool customs? Post 'em here!

I really like the looks of these Raptors. Like something Kenner would sell (and that I. rex is pretty schnazzy, too):

Here's my Bull Rex repaint:

I almost forgot to post my male T. rex custom I did from the Hybrid T. rex figure!

They're great, D4Ever!!! Loved the custom T.rex there, I wish there was a way to cover those screwholes...

Well, I planned to fill in the holes with wax, but in the end they didn't bother me enough to warrant it.

I don't have any pictures of it but i used to have a Chaos Effect Alpha Raptor toy when i was little.
the left arm broke off because i played with him too much...so i took a skeleton dinosaur toy and cut the arm off it and melted it and the CEAR's arm stub into it so it looked like he had a skelly hand.

I've never really tried customizing JP figures too much, though the JW raptors you have there look like a promising place to start.

Is spray paint good for customs? I got a pair of cheap, but still fairly good quality and accurate Velociraptor toys that I want to customize.

Only custom I've ever done. Pretty meh. I did it last year and meant to touch it up & make it look really good but I haven't gotten back to it. Still looks like this for now.

Here is my first custom. An Imperial toys Brachiosaurus.



My custom painting of a Velociraptor toy that had its body spray painted red on one side more then the other side. I used acrylics to turn it into Blue.





And last but not least, my most recent custom. A Triceratops from the same line as the Brachiosaurus. Technically, I customized this when I was a kid by putting White-Out on the nose horn to see if it would make it look more real, which I also did with a Styracosaurus toy, but I didn't do that with the two big brow horns. I just painted all 3 horns black, along with the beak and toes and made the body dark green. It had white eyes, but I painted them banana yellow.

They look great!! One day I'll grab a few chinasaurs too and try custom them.

Thank you very much! Also, soon or later, My third custom lego will be showed. Male Pteranodon hippocratesi! My favorite Pterosaurs

Here are my most recent customs.

This is my old 1985 Imperial Toys Stegosaurus. The plates I based on the 'Walking With Dinosaurs' Stegosaurus while the rest of the colors is based on the ones from 'TLW'.


Here's a 1998 Ankylosaurus toy without its tankhammer that I customized as an Edmontonia.

Here's my recent custom. A 1999 Styracosaurus toy. It was originally painted where most of the body except the underside was rhino grey, but I thought that was just boring so I gave it much more color. African Violet for the base color, Bright Red markings, and Black stripes.

I haven't posted much of my customs, but I gave a lot of my dinosaur toys, including many of my customs, away to my friend's son. However, I still some toys left. Here's my Chasmosaurus.

My LEGO Jurassic Park Creatures with Hammond

I got a big plastic Brachiosaurus toy from Salvation Army not long ago and repainted it as a Male Sorna Brachiosaurus from JP3.

I repainted the Hasbro Echo raptor to resemble the Diablas raptors from LTL. This was also my first attempt at hand painting a figure.

Spoiler:

This one is a work in progress; I'm trying to make an Ultimasaurus loosely based off the custom by Ted Brothers. The arms and legs from the JP3 re-ak-atak alpha raptor were my preferred choice but they're too small for the snap-jaw raptor's body. I'm looking for places that offer 3d printing services that can make larger copies. I'm also considering a smaller version of the Triceratops frill and horns. I'm deciding between using putty to make the Ankylo spikes or using the spikes from my spare Ankylo or Minmi figures.
