Cable (Marvel Legends) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:60659
Name:Cable
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Marvel Legends
Creator:no1609  
Date Added:April 22, 2014
Base Figure:Sinister Six Kraven
Height:6.00 inches
This is my first Custom figure ever and yes there are a lot of things wrong with it. I've used this mainly as a dummy to test out techniques (what works and what doesn't). It's taken quite a while to make it's been completed a little bit at a time.

The base figure is Kraven from the sinister six box set. His arms are from a deathlok figure with some slight modification to make them different. The pants have been sculpted as Kravens legs were way too thin and the straps and belt are made from foam. Painted with citidel paints.

Quite happy with how it's turned out (minus the problems it has). Let me know what you think.

I like it, maybe not as cable, but you could make this into you're own original character, give him a new name and a backstory, maybe add some weapons or something, but it sure looks cool, keep it up, hope to see more customs from you soon

I'm actually working on some original characters as we speak and who knows, I may retool this figure somewhere down the line and turn it into something new

Looks good! Most of the 'problems' are just things you pick up as you work with figures. Prepping joints, etc.

Can't wait to see how you progress!

Hiya buddy

Great job on your first figure. I especially like the job you did sculpting over the skinny legs - and your paint work looks leaps and bounds ahead of a usual first effort.

Criticism-wise - maybe pay a little closer attention to the source material? Cable's metal arm is his left, not his right (same as Winter Soldier), so that stands out to me. I think he could use something else to spruce up the glowing eye too.. but I'd also be tempted to swap the head out completely. The reworked Kraven head certainly looks like a different character now but it doesn't scream Cable to me. Makes me think more of Stephen Lang's character from Avatar.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks man, like I said there is a lot wrong with this figure. It didn't even start out as cable, I decided on that about half way through which in hindsight probably wasn't a good idea. The criticism is greatly accepted, it will help me with further customs, thanks again.
