I decided to recustomize my custom Revelation Faker action figure. The original was dyed and hand painted, and look really cool, but I really wanted to see how it would look airbrushed with some shiny paint.
The final picture is the original custom faker that I made, there are more pictures in the Custom Action Figures section.
This was just a simple repaint of the Masterverse He-Man and Battle Cat. He-Man’s armor is 3D printed along with his big-ass battle axe.

I was always annoyed that the Rise TMNT April O’Neil figure didn’t really look like the cartoon character so I made my own in Blender, 3D printed, and painted it.
What do you think?

A few years back I got some of these Elite Ninja TMNT action figures with the intention of making customs and after several attempts I finally finished them.
I recently started using an airbrush to paint and I was able to get some nice tones on the chest shells and the green skin. I also used a metallic green to give the back shells that bright color.
There were a couple failed attempts at customizing these figures including hand painting (above), which I was so disappointed in that I just set them aside and forgot about them. I also airbrushed them and had to remove the paint when it started to peal teaching me why primer is so important.
So what is the verdict? Is this an improvement? Let me know what you think?
I am so happy with this Panthor figure. My first thought was that it was just a repaint of the Revelation Battle Cat and in some ways it is. The main body is a repaint, but it’s not glossy purple, there is an almost metalic blue/ purple look. I’m not sure how to describe it, but it looks really cool and it just doesn’t show up well in the pictures. He also has faint black spots just like a real panther, IYKYK.
The head is new and has glass eyes. The jaw not only opens, but the top teeth move up into the head giving it a more natural look when the jaw is closed. The helmet also has eye holes so the glass eyes are visible with or without it.
My favorite part is the saddle, filled with tons of details, skulls, faces, and a spinel column in the rear.
The box art alone makes this figure worth buying. I really hope there will be a New Eternia Battle Cat soon.
Finally posting my first 3D print of 2025 and it’s April O’Neil from the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon series. I have been working on this design for some time, created entirely on Blender 3D and printed in resin. What do you think?

Wahoo, it’s my first drawing of 2025! I know, it took forever, but here it is.
This is a drawing of April O’Neil from the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. I decided on this version because I love the design of the characters from this series and I was making a 3D print design too. I will post that tomorrow.
I had to post some closeup pictures of this Michelangelo design I did. I used a basic Raphael scan I found online and altered it, adding in some board shorts, cutoff tee, headphones and tape deck, and fanny pack. Finished it off with a baseball cap, shades, and skateboard.
What do you think, is he ready for the beach?
I found this Paddington/Duffel Coat Bear on cults3d.com and it’s created by @mag-net.
I printed this out a long time ago and painted it by hand, but unfortunately it fell off my record player and broke. Recently I decided to practice airbrush painting with it.
Which version do you like better?
So apparently if you don’t properly rinse and cure a resin 3D print, especially if they are hallowed out, they might explode. That was the case with this Orko 3D print I made, and painted and since I hate to waste resin I glued it back together so I could practice with my airbrush. I like both paint jobs, but it’s obvious I need work on my putty skills.
