Outstanding work, olds. Seriously. I am absolutely amazed and really appreciate your walkthrough on how you made him! The bendy cape and magnets is genius!

Ultraverse Prime: In his Final Form

Postby 1987olds442 » Tue Feb 16, 2021 12:53 pm

This is my second custom of favorite Ultraverse character Prime, but this time in his final form.

The base body is the Caliban BAF. The head is a Hyperion casting that I got glassman customs to enlarge good while back. I did have to re-sculpt the back of the head/hair a little, and fit it to the body using my Dremel and o-rings. I also added some epoxy behind the ears until it was enlarged I never noticed how thin the Hyperion ears were. The hands are from 1/6th scale Deadpool that I bought off eBay which worked out great, but I did have to thicken the peg with superglue and baking soda. The feet are from a Marvel Select Colossus which fellow Fwoosher (GUTS_2010) hooked me up with. To make the smaller feet look right I had to Dremel down the lower legs. I used styrene and epoxy to sculpt the armor, gauntlets, and boots. I used Caliban's wristbands as a base for the gauntlets, so they are still removable. I ordered the cape off of eBay it was listed to be for the Storm Mortal Kombat Shao Kahn. I attached the cape by I embedding magnets into the shoulders, and gluing some magnets to the cape. This way the cape can be removable. For the tattoo and arm hair created the graphics in photoshop and printed them on clear backed waterslide paper. To get the waterslide decals to conform to the arm used micro set and micro sol.

I really took my time with this second Prime. It's Prime Time!
