Fucking hate those legs. I gave Surfer Dagger's legs; pretty much the same shape just with more articulation.

As for Vision, I think you should have used an Iron Fist (already green and the body is better).

Toys r us has that Vision in stock online if you spend 20 bucks you get free shipping. As Vision was all I wanted it cost me about 11.70 with the lowest shipping option.

MCU Kilgrave Bit small but works for me

Gonna try and turn that Amy Pond into a Jessica Jones.

Recipe was a simple headswap using Doctors 10 + 12 (I believe)

I think he's going for the white vision. He was all chalk white for a while

Nah, this is just a custom made out of a figure I already had, but didn't particularly care for. He's going green, and is being painted right now.

Well I'm going for the white version. Kind of reminds me of the old arcade game back in the day. My first real jump into comics was because of the game. Cant wait to see your finished? I'm just throwing a white cloth on mine unless I can find a suitable cape.

Same here mate. That game and the x-men figures were what really drew me in as a kid.

I'll post pics once he's finished. Takes a few hours for my paint to fully dry, plus I have to apply it in coats. I'm concentrating on the green parts for now.

The DW heads come right off. There shouldn't be any hassle.

Could you double check the recipe? It's obviously a 10th Doctor head but I can't find that body on a 12th Doctor. There is one but the inside isn't purple like yours.

Green (at least evenly) over all that white will be tricky even for the most skilled painters. Did you take the joints all apart and sand them first to prevent rub? Really hope you pull it off, sounds tough though. Looking forward to your pics.

There are about 5 different versions of 12th Doctor so far. It is wave 4 that has this likeness of our favourite Scottish doctor, Great Britain's own Peter Capaldi.

Last time I was at ToysRus they had a tonne of him.

I managed to mostly do it without sanding on my Ant Man custom. I'm gonna see if I can repeat that on this custom.

Cool! Excited to see him!

Excuse me, David Tennant is our favourite Scottish Doctor. Peter Capaldi isn't anyone's favourite anything, except sweary spin-doctor.

This is true for me. I'm still not a fan of Mr capaldi. I still feel sickened by sonic shades.
