TKWs Top Ten Custom Poll

Post by The Kraken Wakes »

OK, following on from Andy here are what I think my top ten customs are so far... Not necessarily picked because I think they look fantastic or that I think ive done amazing work, just that im happiest with these guys... As you can see I havent really started on anything other than Z or Shadows...

Z Force Tomahawk

My first big vehicle custom I was happy with, esp after the hardwork of painting the bastard inside and out...
Image

Kraken
One of my favourite figures! Dead happy with how these turned out eventually, now im way to an army of these guys...
Image

Hurricane
Just a repaint with some custom decals but I think this really improves on the original Cobra vehicle...
Image

Shadow Troop Transporter
Not much to say, just happy how it looks next to the shadowtrak...
Image

Shadowquake
Hunted this base vehicle down like a madman for ages before I found a shop in Birmingham that sold them... Have a couple more complete and am working on a tesla coil variant...
Image

Baron Ironblood
Took me ages to complete one I was happy with after many many attempts...
Image

Red Shadow Diver
Love this guy a lot...
Image

Black Major
Not much done with this except a repaint on the torso and a v nice looking original head...
Image


Z Force Tank Transporter
Really want to start again with this as some of the paintwork on the cab isnt too good but still love the base vehicle... Want to find more of the cabs, fit backs on and use them to pull my artillery which is under customisation...
Image

Z Force Wolverine
Again, just a simple repaint with some custom decals...

I`ve gone with the transport, Looks like it fits right in with the releases at the time, especially the big chunky wheels.
I want one!!!

N! There's not a duff one amongst them! Everything looks like it belongs. After much deliberation, for me, it's the krakens! Fully articulated and look factory produced. Perfect!

As much as I like kraken with boobs I went for the Shadowquake there's nothing like a kick ass vehicle with plenty of firepower.

Kraks,

This is just SO good!

I can only repeat from what everyone has said.

I'm such a fan...

Everything looks production finish.

It's as if it's 1984 and these have just come fresh off the Palitoy production line.

In a perfect world Indy Dave would find all of this stuff just as it is in some Palitoy ex-employee's attic. In multiples. So we could all have one each.

I have no idea what to vote for.

I'll sleep on it till tomorrow. The Tomahawk is just outstanding [I just had to vote for that in the June comp, hands down winner in my opinion...], the Shadow Troop Transporter, the Tank Transporter... they are all so perfect and beautiful in my eyes.

Clearly we have very similar tastes.

Any chance you could shed a bit more light on your creations?

How long did they take to make?

How much were the base vehicles to buy?

Recipes for figures?

It's all so very interesting. If I win the lottery, you can retire and I'll commission you to make me custom vehicles for a living!
