Western minimate Battle Beasts
 

Hey guys,

Here are two customs that I made with some bits I got this year at
C2E2. Since I already painted up a Rattle Snake and made a desert
jumping spider, I decided to continue my desert/western theme that I
have going. First off, I made a beast that's an homage to Clint Eastwood
in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, in the form of a desert lizard. I
chose this specific breed as the spikes on his face mirror Clint's five
o'clock shadow in the movie. I also used the oversized gator feet to
represent western cowboy boots.

The second figure is a Merk/falcon repaint where I tried to give him
more of a southern Arizona desert feel to him, with a little bit more of
a native american flair to him.

So I have a desert lizard, falcon, rattle snake and jumping spider.
Next, I plan on doing my own paint jobs on the tarantula and scorpion.
Let me know what you guys think.

Missions accomplished! The cloth, feathers and beak look particularly good.
