Thanks for the nice comments everyone! Heres Ty Lee! Im very pleased with her. I used Aang as a base figure. This was the most complicated avatar related custom i have done. There was a bunch of sculpting ; her hair, forehead and hands (to get rid of aangs arrow), chest (it was hard to get her boobies to look proportional), pants, and waist(which you cant see because of her skirt). Painting was a challenge too. There are three shades of pink on her, with lighter pink highliting the wrinkles in her clothes. The eyes were the hardest part but i think they came out pretty good. Hope you guys like her! Please leave comments/suggestions! HERES THE LINK TO HER EBAY AUCTION THAT ENDS 10/22: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320174386407

thanx.
and yeah, im selling her. shes already on ebay.
i have this pet peeve thing that i dont like to keep customs in my collection. I dont know why. It just bothers me to see customs next to factory made figures. As with this custom, I was sooooo close to keeping her b/c i love how she turned out. but, i know that i would never make a nice looking mai and azula soon that she could be displayed with.
Also, i got a bunch of avatar figs for fodder so i may make doubles of characters that i have already made. and since i know what works and what doesnt, they will trun out better and i will probably end up keeping those.

I'm still in awe about Ty Lee! She's SOO much better than the last one ... no offence to the last on but it didn't resemble her fully, but this one is just, WOW.
I feel like doing re-makes in a way but in another I don't wanna waste anymore time doing these. I think I'm just re-doing Katara's hair. OH YEAH, I fixed my Toph's skin tone! xD lol
Soo anymore coming our way?

Ummm... Sokka!? Aang? Zuko? not quite; its the gaang in fire nation disquises. I plan on making Katara, Aang, and Sokka for sure. Since i just made another toph, and i am comissioning one for someone else, i really dont feel like doing a third toph so soon. Maybe in another month or two. and anyways, i am REALLY low on extra figures and need to get some more off ebay. I have been lookig on ebay for like a month now and i havent seen any loose or avatar fgure lots. anyway, heres Toph V2.: I think she came out a whole lot better than my first one. and the skirt/sash thingy was inspired by rob3rtman's custom. heres Zuko from season 2: Im not to fond of him though. Heres a WIP shot of Fire Nation Disquise Katara and Aang. I took a pic of their backs b/c i wanted to show kataras sculpted hair and how i had to combine zuko's legs w/the aang figure.

The Toph is SOO good! I thought mine was pretty good but yours is spectacular!!! Lol your Toph made my Toph sad ... hehehe! The Zuko is really good too, the only thing is his chest, I think I know what you did and used too.
The Aang and Katara look like they'll come out good too! Although when I first saw Katara my first thoughts were: OMG MEDUSA!!!!!!1 lol j/k
My Azula is almost done as well!

Are you a secret Mattel™ worker?! lol
How do you do these so good? What are the loopies made of? How did you do the eyes so detailed? Where'd you get the skirt? How did you do the fur things for her shirt? And her necklace?
lol Hopefully you might answer those. XD I'd buy her most definatley. How much would she be?

LOL im not a mattel worker, i wish i was though, then i would have them make the girls. but i think you have to be over 15 to work for them answers to your questions: -lots of practice. i have made sooo many marvel legends customs and they arent very good b/c they have so much detail. but avatar style is a little easier b/c its much more simple. -loopies are wire -for the eyes, i first paint them all white. then add the iris color. (for katara its blue) then add a small black dot (being careful she doesnt end up crosseyed) and finally, making a white dot on the same side of each eye to show light reflecton. -the skirt was made from 2 sashes from a marvel legends mystique figure. i had to rip 2 of them off different figures and sculpt them together on the base body. -the fur and all other things that werent on the aang figure are apoxie sculpt. customizers best friend. -her necklace is apoxie too. and if i do end up not keeping her, she would go on ebay with a starting price of $15 . So, how much are you willing to spend? (the most ive had an avatar figure go for on ebay is $60, and that was azula.) ps. my season 2 zuko is currently on ebay. and thanks for the nice comments everyone!
