My custom Uncanny X-Force Team
X-Force Deadpool The Deadpool that came in the X-Force 3 pack is awesome but I did not like how his sword holster were so I sought to change that. Here is my reference photo Google Images I just swapped the sword holsters from the deadpool comic pack. Molded a X-Force emblem and stuck it on his chest and just painted over the emblem on his belt. Reenacted scene from the comic where deadpool feeds archangel his flesh X-Force Psylocke The base figure is the dark phoenix Jean Grey. Ms. Marvel would of been a better choice but she is not to find. Used a Black Widow head and voila. With her brother Captain Britain The Capt. America line version is starting to grow on me. I love the paint apps and sword he comes with. With her man Archangel aka Warren Worthington X-Force Fantomex The base figure is a GI Joe ROC Storm Shadow Arctic Threat. I switched the coats with some random star wars figure. I changed his legs with a Flint GI Joe figure to get the boots over the pants. Riding on E.V.A (used the matrix from transformers) Getting hooked into E.V.A X-Force Archangel I just repainted the MU Archangel Wolverine from X-Force 3 pack Last edited by Symbiote; 08-14-2011 at 05:23 PM.. |

Thanks guys. I love the new x force team. Once I get X-23, I plan to do the full x force team with wolfsbane, vanisher, elixir and the rest of the already released, wolverine, custom domino, archangel and warpath. Silver and black attack.

I'm just curious on what exactly you used for the jacket. As a customizer I would prefer making one myself, however I really do appreciate the offer! I'll google some pics of the Stormshadow =3

I like your Psylocke better than the one from SDCC11.

Tiberius: The coat was from some random star wars figure that I found. I can't really remember which one it was because I just found it in a bin of old star wars figures from a friend. The storm shadow arctic threat figure looks really close to it. Here is one on ebay
G.I.JOE Rise of Cobra Arctic Threat Storm Shadow Loose | eBay The coat is too big on this figure because he has a hood. I suggest using the coat from Hush in the DC Infinite Crisis line. This coat also works well with Gambit too. DC UNIVERSE Infinite Heroes HUSH #08 8 Batman crisis | eBay I hope that helps and BTW, I think I'm going to do a x-men namor as well. The formula you did was good. Thanks Prem1x. |

Hey Symbiote, do you think you could list everything you used to repaint your Archangel. I'm not a customizer at all, but I really, really want to have an X-Force Archangel, and this is gonna have to be the only way I'll have one, since there's no way I can budget in that Marvel Digital Comics sub. - and the ones on eBay, genuine and customs aren't really that much better price-wise for me either.
The only experience I have with painting is when I did a full custom color job on a Gundam/Mobile suit model kit (specifically a Mass Prod. Bawoo for those who care). So any tips would be nice also. |

The x-force archangel is pretty much just a re-painted archangel figure. I typically use the tamiya acrylic paints. For X-Force I used semi-gloss black and water based it a bit. Use thin coats so that it doesn't clump up in the joint areas. I've had to sand down the joints a bit so that it doesn't give the joint rub with the paint coming off. Then for the finishing touches I used a chrome silver paint for the lining of his costume. I plan to do a blood spatter affect on all of the x force figures soon. I hope this helps.
