my custom predator.

[wolf-pred3107]

still working on a couple these but here is my custom figure gallery. the first four are from the comics, the rest are just made up. My phone camera sucks a little so sorry for quality

Top-Knot



Broken Tusk/Dachande



Light Stepper and Predalien trophy skull



AvP comic young-bloods



Super-Predator Clan leader
Originally based off the Kenner clan leader with a more aged coloration, was originally going to have alien tail trophies in place of tentacles but they didnt stay on.



Brawler Super-Predator
originally based on a few of the Kenner predators but ended up abandoning the idea



"Croc"
Based on the Arkham Asylum version of killer croc, cant see much of the green because my camera sucks



The Arbitrator/Diamondback



Half-Jaw and Three spot
Thrown together from spare parts these two are a couple of my favourites



Pred-Alien



The Praetorian
Thrown together with a '79 alien body, AvP:R warrior face, hands, lower legs and tail blade and a McF AvP series 2 queen head and tail

I'm just blown away 

[The_Worm]

First off the work I see here is amazing. Secondly I am looking to do my first custom and wanted to ask a question. Now I am not new to painting figures as I have been building Warhammer stuff for a few years now (yes I am a super nerd I know), however those come completely unpainted. What I want to know when it comes to repainting a Neca Predator figure is do you guys primer the figure first and then paint or simply paint over what is already there? Also what type of paint do you guys use. On my Warhammer stuff I use simple acrylics and then go over them with an acrylic seal.

The custom I am looking to do comes from the HORRIBLE Elder Predator figure Neca produced. I have bought a few of these guys trying to get one that doesn't snap at the arm joint (I now understand it was a manufacturing error) and I have now decided to just build a custom one myself. I want to take the Elder head and place it onto one of the new bodies from the new series (which are fantastic by the way) and then from that repaint the elder head (which has a horrible paint job on it now) to match whatever body I end up putting him onto. I will move what gear I can from the original elder body to the new one, it won't be screen accurate but I think itll be cool to have my own custom NOT BROKEN Elder.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Woa Woa Woa ! so the predalien in AvP 2010 is a praetorian ? good god I need to pay attention 

[SizzyBubbles]

Your Broken Tusk and other preds from my fav AVP comic make me so happy and BLOW MY MIND. Great freakin' job! And you custom predslien has fantastic colors.

[wolf-pred3107]

@NJM - thanks!

@Snowdog - here you go







some more of the praetorian, one showing her full height





@Angel - thanks, ive finished the youngbloods now, i dont sell them but they are easy to do




@Fry1236 - thanks, the pred-alien in AvP 2010 wasn't a praetorian, just a regular albeit slightly mental pred-alien, best one yet IMO

@The_worm - i used warhammer paints without primer, bit of a pain with the super preds cause i needed to do several layers to fully cover. i used to have same problem with series 3 figures, when u get them just boil some water and pour into bowl big enough for pred fig, take off the head and accossories and drop him in for a few minutes till its soft, the arms bend right away then.

@SizzyBubbles thanks, the pred-aliens colors are actually straight out of the box. i only blackened a couple of places

Why don't you just email adams@necaonline.com w/ your address and a picture of the broken arm and get a new one from the NEW & GOOD factory in China that NECA is using now?  It's that easy, you'll have a new & better Elder in your mailbox.  Then use the broken ones to customize.......

WHOA. That Predalien....amazing. You should sell some, or at least include a step-by-step tutorial on making one.

The Praetorian looks kind of awkward though? Like the body is to skinny for the head. You should try using the NECA Predalien figure as a body & painting it black. What figure did you use for the headcrest?

The mandibles are from the NECA pred-alien, i pulled them off amd cut the plug bit to shape then glued them on

ill try put up a tutorial, the praetorian's proportions are same as the games, its just the pose that makes it look awkward, crest is from the MCF AvP series 2 queen
