On-X custom

[Tom-sprite]

So I made up my mind and decided to tinker an On-X ...
I really want to have one for my collection. :-D
I really love his futuristic design.

Today I made a material-list :

I bought twelve packages of ultramarine Fimo-modelling clay classic.
Most of the body will be made out of Fimo I can harden in my oven.

I will have to decide whether I use airbrush to create a mettalic sheen or just add some white acrylic highlights ... I don t know at the moment ...

I will use red cellular rubber for the mane and yellow cellular rubber for his
saddle and his chest-emblem.
The chest-emblem will be decorated with a medium-size Svarovsky-gem.
I will colour the eyes with red acrylic paint and matt varnish.

I deliberate if I should make the four legs movable from the front backwards ...
I would need some items from a property market ! :-))))))))))

I also wonder how I can light up the mane ... I can add this later ...I hope a friend of mine helps me with LED ! ;-)

I will let you guys know when there s progress ! ^^

Sounds interesting. You inspire me to try to make some customes when I get time off from college.

Good luck Tom. I'll be interested to see how this one goes.

@ Stormyfan :

You should really make some customs when you have enough time.
It s so much fun !

@ Chibi :

I love your new avatar ... the pink-haired char on it is very cute ... love the hair ! :-)

The modelling clay will arrive next week ... I am a little antsy... can t wait to start kneading !
I precautionally ordered 12 packages of clay ... because On-X needs to be big enough so that my Krys custom-dolly can ride it ! :-)))))

Thanks. It's from an anime called Simoun. You haven't seemed to mind yuri from my fics, so it's something you may want to see. It may seem like there's a lot of kissing, but really, none of the girls are actual couples, save for a rare few. All of the people in this society are born female and choose their gender once they reach age 17. I could go on and on, but you can find out more for yourself Suffice to say I've ordered the DVD set because it's that good. The pink haired girl is Neviril, and the blonde is Aaeru. I just finished watching it yesterday and it's really amazing, and a gripping storyline.

That is definitely going to be a big horse once you finish. At least the wait for the clay will give you a break from your customs work for now.

@ Chibi :

I hope I can make a big On-X ! :-)
It is not bad to take a break after some projects ... on the other side I hate waiting for something ... I am so goofy ! :-)))))))

@ Katy :

I really can t wait to start kneading ... this will be great fun most probably !!!

To kneat quite precise shapes is a interesting challenge ! ^^

Nope, it's just called Simoun. You can find it online to watch. I watched it on kumby.com. Here's the opening sequence for it. The song is very beautiful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDi8K7ypac8

Nah you'll be fine with your break. You'll just post here two or three times about being eager to get your clay!

[Tom-sprite]

Sweet intro !
The animation-style reminds me a little of Silent Möbius ...
some 3D-elements and smooth movements of the chars.

I should view some more of it !

:-))))))))))) ... I guess this time I will not grumble about the waiting ...
I bought the clay from a very good ebay-shop ... they are very fast thankfully !

Yeah, they incorporated CGI into it, which really works for the Simouns, as the flying ships are called. It's a really good watch. Since school has been cancelled, I watched the first 2 eps late one night and regretted that I could not watch more. And well...I watched the other 24 eps the very next day! XD I love the character designs...the eyes are what always get me. They just draw you in.

Well, you'll get it soon. It'll give you time to prep for making him.
