Wolverine stache removed today the beard also painted to look thicker helps the likeness a ton.

Wanna give us the how-to? Nail polish remover? Looks great!

I used 93% alcohol and brushed it over the stache and wiped with q-tip. May take a couple times but dont let it sit too long. Brush and wipe quickly!

Then I mixed up a flesh tone using pea size drop of burnt sienna, raw sienna, titanium white and tiny drop of black. Water it down to a milky water. Apply several coats to mustache area.

Add some brown to mixture as needed to match hot toy tone. Then I added a small amount of grey chalk pastel for 5 o'clock shadow on lip. Same process for the flavor savor under lip.

After that I used some watered down mix of brown and black to darken the chops. Darker towards the bottom and around the whole beard to appear thicker.

Then cover the upper half of face.....so you don't lose the gloss on eyes.... and spray with a matte acrylic sealer

Hope that helps bud. It's pretty thick in the movie and the stock paint job make the beard look too much like stubble. It's actually sculpted pretty thick but the paint fails to utilize this.

These are looking great guys. Most of my Wolvie parts should be showing up this weekend so I can start putting mine together.

I used the left over parts of my new Wolverine to make this bash. I'm actually more fond of this one than the movie one.
 
Here my custom Wolverine. I had already posted it in the Wolverine thread. So I'm sure some of you have already seen it.



 
Great customs, guys!

Here's mine. Headplay "custom" head came in yesterday. It was earlier than expected, and since I was looking for something to do after the stressful week, I decided to give my long-planned WW2 Logan inspired by Travis Charest's art a go :) It was my first time to fully customize a figure :)

Along with the headplay headsculpt I used an original TTM 19 as well as an original HT claw fist from MMS 220, HT Tommy gun, and the uniform as well as the rest of the gear from Soldier Story's Henry Kano figure. Not the most accurate uniform compared to the artwork, but I'm very happy. I hope you dig it, folks! :wave

I had fun doing a quick black & white edit to get a WW2-era feel :)
