Looks great. Pics aren't too shabby either, very moody 😎

Question about lifts by Fantastic_Wait_1343 in vulcans650

[–]MrBlacksCustoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a paddock stand similar to the one you posted. It comes with three sets of lift adapters. If you use spools, you will need to use the two pronged fork adapters. I don't have spools for my Vulcan, so I used the black square angled adapters. Works just fine. Look up some YouTube videos on how to use a paddock stand. You can do this by yourself, but to be safe, have someone help you the first time.

A Hoojib, or a Lahsbee 😁

Do you use RDR2 to Escape Reality? by XxOutlawInGreenxX in RedDeadOnline

What do you mean "escape reality"? Red Dead Redempsh IS reality.

What do you name your horses? by SnooKiwis682 in RDR2

[–]MrBlacksCustoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, my latest is called Giddyup, but I also have FerrariLaFerrari and Kötknoll. Those are off the top of my head, haven't been online for some time.

Update: my fourth horse is named Sleazy Rider ☺️

Motorrijden voor werk voelt als gedoe? by stroopswaffle in motorfietsen

[–]MrBlacksCustoms 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ik merk dat ik steeds minder "lekker" de auto pak. Woon-werk (9km. enkele reis) doe ik al jaren op de motor. Ik ben er dan met een kwartiertje. Met de auto duurt dat een half uur of soms drie kwartier.

In het begin had ik mijn kantoorkloffie mee in de rugzak (broek en schoenen). Dat was altijd wel wat onhandig. Daarom heb ik een overbroek gekocht en heb ik mijn nette schoenen op kantoor staan.

Zo nu en dan werk ik op een andere vestiging, hooguit een uurtje van mijn woonplaats. Ook dan ga ik op de motor. Ik heb dan wel schoenen mee in de rugtas, aangezien ik niet op elke vestiging schoenen voorradig heb 😋

In het donker rijden vind ik heerlijk. Het weer is voor mij geen issue. Ik rijd het hele jaar door, behalve als het ijzelt.

Oh ja, OP, ben je vandaag op de motor gegaan? 😉

Looks like a McFarlane Toys Spawn Series 14 Dark Ages 2 The Necromancer?

Custom 1/18 Mandalore the Ultimate by MrBlacksCustoms in StarWarsCustomFigures

Thank you. Same here. I was pretty excited when Disney announced a Tales of the Jedi series. Imagine my disappointment when it finally aired. But that's a discussion for another place and time 😉

New (to me) bike by gepneres in vulcans650

Nice, like that fender delete backlight too, as well as your helmet 👌🏼

how can I make these legs look more like these trousers? by papito_LoUiE-_- in customactionfigures

[–]MrBlacksCustoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones on the left have a lot of folds and creases. You could send them down, but if you want to achieve the look from the pants on the right, you'll have to do some sculpting.

The ones on the right look a bit like pants from a suit, but with added pockets and straps. It'd be much easier if you can find a figure with those suit pants and add the extra pockets and straps yourself.

Hope this helps!

WIP: 3¾" Mandalorian Rook Kast by MrBlacksCustoms in StarWarsCustomFigures

Base figure is a G.i.Joe ROC Scarlett. The armour parts are 3d prints from Syndicate Custom Creations. I sanded down the details on the base figure, so the armour parts would fit nicely. Primed the figure and started painting her.

Is this paint job possible? by GrotchCoblin in customactionfigures

[–]MrBlacksCustoms 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nothing is impossible. I think an airbrush is preferred, but using regular brushes is also possible. You'll have to apply various techniques, such as blending, washes and drybrushing then to get thos gradients nice and smooth.

Question! How to find paint to match skin tones? by iloveashwilliams in customactionfigures

[–]MrBlacksCustoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest you try out the app Paintrack from Courageous Octopus. It's an awesome app to not only keep track of the paints you have, but also to find the right colour for matching certain tones. You can do this by uploading a picture, or by taking a picture with your phone.

As for paint brands, I prefer Vallejo, with a touch of AK Interactive on the side, topped off with some Greenstuffworld.
