*Please move this post, I apologize for posting it in the wrong section for non 1/6th related items*

Hello everyone, this is my first post. I wanted to introduce myself by sharing my custom Bane. There are a few things I am still working on with it, but I'm mostly happy.

I'm not sure if I should have found a more pale skin tone as opposed to the suntan. The site I purchased from did not have the option to choose and at the time I bought it I thought it would be for a Terminator. I also need to find a better belt, dremel the head so it fits further down on the neck/better in general, find a way to secure the boots better, paint application to the face and add green tubes/backpack. I have the same pants in black, but I like the way the camo allows the knee pads to show better. If I could find a quality comic style head for $50 or so painted that would be amazing. There is a guy selling some great ones on ebay, but they are $160-$180 which I would rather not spend for this project. I do have a Tom Hardy Bane head, but were I to use that I'd want to customize it to look more comic style based on a design I saw online. Total cost of what you see came in at $135 or so with the body being the most expensive item at around $70. I'm tough on myself, but I think I did okay. Any suggestions are welcome and it's great to be here.

Items used:
Phicen M35 body
Spin master head from Batman /Bane Target exclusive 2 pack
Aliexpress clothing/boot set
Hands from eBay
Knee/elbow pads from Aliexpress

Nice figure. The body works beautifully, but as far as TBLeague bodies are concerned, you will not find one in a paler shade unless you found a way to repaint it (oil pastel?) yourself.

Well done on your first figure. I know what it's like to be hard on oneself, but it looks good to me. I think you assembled a nice figure from the selection that was available to you, and I hope you'll stick around and share more photos! Smile

Don't sweat the small stuff, and welcome aboard, Halien90. Getting used to the all the work involved in kitbashing is part of the fun, and we all had to start and learn what worked best for what we wanted. The figure looks cool, and very comic appropriate (I was actually disappointed in the Tom Hardy version myself).
