Hi folks! Just a quick loincloth swap-out on Vikor. I'd like to make him a steed sometime in the future so I figure this way he can actually ride itHope y'all like it!

Maybe Marzo as an archenemy was the biggest thing to happen to Mekaneck, but as far as Marzo was concerned...it was Tuesday.

Very cool all around. I like it.
Thanks guys! The hair and scabbard are definitely my favorite parts of this guy, th eloincloth was more of an experiment. Wulf-Gar mentioned it might have looked better with a longer style one a la Hordak, and I may try that at some pint
Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I think the goldish-metallic belt might be the thing throwing people off. I don't mind the shorter trunks. Maybe tone down the belt?

How'd you do the loincloth shorts change?
The word “apocalypse” means to unveil, not the end of the world.
The meaning of the apocalypse is the opposite of what most people think. It does not mean the end of the world; it means the revealing of hidden secrets and the beginning of a heaven on earth. The apocalypse is starting now.
Thanks for the feedback. My idea for the belt was based off of the gold rings on his original loincloth, but i get what you're saying. Any suggestions on an alternative color?
It's not too hard. Ijust heated and popped off his legs at the hips using a blowdryer, then heated the loincloth itself and slowly pulled it down. I had to reheat the loincloth a few times to keep it pliable and prevent tearing, so it takes a little bit of patience. It's not too bad though, the swapping process probably took a total of 15-20 minutes. I did pre-paint the new loincloth before I put it on him though. Hope that helps!
Hmmm...maybe a steel or gun-mental with a black wash. It will still have that metallic look but it won't draw so much attention.
