Marvel Comics custom figure Legion (no Eaglemoss, 3D print base)


Dear all, along the years I always had in mind to custom with this character and finally I did it.

The base is a printed figure of Iceman, later customized using Green Milliput as working clay.

Hair, Jacket and pants are in Green Milliput, colors from Vallejo.

Here a brief description of the character, thanks to Wikipedia:

Legion (David Charles Haller) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, typically as a villain or supporting character in stories featuring the X-Men and related characters. Created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Bill Sienkiewicz, the character first appeared in New Mutants #25 (March 1985).

He is the mutant son of Charles Xavier and Gabrielle Haller. Legion takes the role of an antihero who has a severe mental illness, including a form of dissociative identity disorder in which each of his identities exhibits different mutant abilities or powers.

Marvel Comics Custom Figurie Lockjaw

 

New custom figure: Lockjaw.

Courtesy of Wikipedia:

Like all Inhumans, Lockjaw is originally from the island of Attilan. He serves as the protector of the Inhuman Royal Family and, thanks to his teleportation ability, has brought the Inhumans in and out of their city of refuge many times. At times, his powers have been manipulated by evil forces, most notably by Maximus the Mad.


This figure is made starting from a 3D model file downloaded from Thingiverse and printed in resin with Anycubic Photon Mono 2.

The teleportation antenna on the head is made with green Milliput and the colors are Vallejo.

The base is made with green milliput also.

After long time... new Marvel Custom Figure Magda Lensherr

Dear followers,

as promised (or threatened...) after finishing the X-Com serie, here I am starting again with the Marvel Custom figures.

I hope you will enjoy this new beginning!

The first one is Magda Lensherr, for which I have to share a bit of historical info, first. 

Courtesy of: Marvel_Fandom

(...) Magda Lensherr was a freelance secret agent. 

She was originally assigned to watch Magneto, but the assignment was compromised as she developed feelings for him and gave birth to his children; the twins Wanda and Pietro. 

When Magneto eventually found out the truth about Magda, he took the children and left her. 

Magda was also romantically entangled with Logan, and bore him a son as well: Jimmy.

Magda stole a sample of Mothervine, a drug that ensured pregnant mothers would birth mutant children that could be programmed and weaponized, and injected herself with it, not knowing at the time that she was carrying Jimmy.

Wolverine eventually tracked her down in order to retrieve the stolen sample and discovered the child. Magda entrusted the child to Wolverine and fled.

Years later, she re-emerged, stopping a fight between her two sons. 

She arranged for Pietro's medical care from the injuries he sustained from his brother and her, before disappearing again. (...)

The figure was created starting from an epoxy resin copy of a warrior woman purchased on Amazon, and not at a good price either...!! (about 30€... seller from China).

The colors are from Vallejo and the gun was made by me with milliput green.

The base is a 3D print made in resin (cost of the base in resin about 1€ of material) with an Anycubic Photon Mono 2 printer. It is a print of a base similar to the official Eaglemoss ones, downloaded from the site Thingiverse one of the best two sites for free STL downloads.

About Eaglemoss, after many years, I remind you that this whole blog was born from my admiration for the sensational work done by the Eaglemoss company with their MCFC (Marvel Comics Figurine Collection).

Have fun and have a look at her 4d view in the relevant gallery.

Ciauz!

Hallo again followers,

what are the next steps?

The idea is to add some new Marvel Custom figures to the collection, and to start a Youtube channel with video dedicated to my hobby.

427 Diamondhead
