Is it worth making up a list of all the different Palitoy limbs and torsos?

Aren't the rolled-up sleeves and shorts also rarities?

Yes, that's another great suggestion!

I have 2 Desert Rats that are going to loose their arms soon, I would much rather have 2 custom jobs from Steve-o instead and save my Rats.

Arms are a little trickier - thumbs cause me lots of headaches, but I am more than happy to give it a go.

So, now I need a knackered Desert trooper too! Anyone (I gave my knackered one away ages ago)???

ah. i was looking at my Arctic Assault, i didn't realise M&A had different legs.

ignore everything i said in my previous post.

Just found a set of loose M+A legs if needed for cloning.

Can you you give us all a step by step of how you paint your figures please andy?
Like the guide that was shown how to do the stripes on the white tank.
Im having problems painting them.
Hope this isnt to cheeky to ask?

No worries Steve, did you get that last email I sent ?

it will probably be better if I took some work in progress pics from start to finish next time I do a custom figure ?

I always use a white undercoat or if im doing a full body paint I use plastic primer spray.

I usually use games workshop acrylics, they dry very quick and leave a nice satiny finish, although the lighter colours tend to need 2 or 3 coats.

were you having any problems in particular ?

Hello Andy.
No i didnt get your last e-mail.Was wondering where you had got to.
Well im customing a Q-Force figure at the moment,ive given it a white primer but i think i sprayed it to thick and close so he looks like frosty the snowman lol.
Using games workshop Blood Red on him,which seems to be going ok.Im going to carry on with him today and experiment,im very fussy if its not done right (my girlfriend blames it on my OCD) lol.
The picture guide would be great and i think it would help a load of people on here.
I think a new section with step by step picture customizng would be great on here.
The white x-Force tank guide was really interesting.
All the best.
Steve.

Hi Steve. the last mail you sent me came to my email box and not through the BFTB PM system.

I clicked " reply to this message " so you should have a reply ....... somewhere !

Its easier to send a private message through this site .... just click the PM buttom next to my name.

Mental note to self - "the World does not revolve around you - other Steve's do exist"
