I have wanted to customize some figures to look like the movie Ghostbusters and finally found some rough looking figures for cheap. The Neutrino Wand was made from scratch using wooded dowels, craft foam, Milliput, and cardboard. I used rubber molds and plastic resin to make copies of the Proton Packs, Neutrino Wands, and Ghost Traps.
Nice! I’m thinking of repainting some to resemble the film costumes; did you take the figures apart to paint them? Cheers!
Thanks! No, I left them assembled, but I did have to clean them because they were super dirty. I will definitely do more when I get the time.
If I may ask, what kind of paint did you use? I’ve been trying to paint some custom figures and have been having some adhesion issues with acrylic paint and regular spray paint is too thick and stays sticky…
Sorry for the late response, I have neglected this website for some time. The paint is basic craft paint you can usually purchase at Walmart or hobby stores like Michael’s. This specific paint was Testor brand craft paint purchased from Menards. Lots of model and spray paints remains tacky especially due to the chemicals in the plastics, especially if it’s a soft plastic. Hope this helps.
