My first custom jaws.

Filed under: Uncategorized — (f+) @ 6:39 pm

So, a little while back, a collector asked me if I’d be interested in customizing a Coarsetoys jaws figure, to which I instantly responded “F- yeah!”. I can’t say I’ve ever seen a custom Jaws, except for the one coarsetoys itself has done.

I would guess this is mainly due to the cost of the figure itself, which is no $25 munny. So, the pressure was really on to make this piece count as one of very few customs of it’s kind. I would love to do more of these. It;s a really great platform with tons of options, and I nice, lean, break from the chubby little Kidrobot figures I’ve been doing so much of!

true to my fantasy form, I decided to go with a Dragon slaying knight, originally, he was going to be a little less dark, but as I went along, I realize how well the design lended itself to a darker, more brooding character. So I decided to make him a total badass, with a possessed sword and the savage powers of a dragon burning inside of him. Here come, many, many pics:

The sword slides in and out of the back holster nicely.

The Mask attaches to magnetic ear piercings on both sides of his head. holds on quite well actually. :)

Hopefully I’ll get a chance to do another one of these very soon! :)

They marched like a brilliantly shimmering parade through the square,
Their majik auras gently vibrated the surrounding bystanders.
Although many feared the army, they couldn’t help but stand in awe of the sight.

As the soldiers made their way through the massive city toward the palace of the Principatus, their candles unnaturally vibrant flames cast an eerie glow
against the poplars and marble buildings that made up the city.

As they reached the base of the palace steps, they were met by a formidable wall of battle ready white wizards and warriors, waiting for them at the top of the steep stairs.

From the sea of strange light below, two candles, burning brighter than any others, parted the sea of colourful torches. A single codexian came out from the ranks and knelt to one knee, casting his prismatic sword into the soft earth beside him, the two candles smoldering atop his head.

“My name is General Daval Razikan” he announced. “And we are the Black Candelabra. We are not judge, nor jury…” He said while raising his head. He paused for only a moment. It felt like an eternity, as the air become strangely still. The only sound, the soft hum of majik. It felt as threatening as a viper, coiled to strike.

“We are simply executioners, and this palace of yours, shall be your gallows….”
