 Love the torches paint job ....how many hours did that set you back?

Lets just say the Human Torch Pony was also know as the "f*cking Little Bitch Pony." :0) Man making straight lines on something that isn't flat is just not, lots of fun, I thought this was going to be so easy, HAHAHHAHAHA God I was wrong. I think the comic book Torch had the lines to define muscle, not sure about this, just a guess, but I couldn't do that very well with the pony. Also I tried painting the lines and it just didn't work so I removed paint and started over.  Most of the times these are so relaxing to do, so I shouldn't complain.

Thanks all for likely these silly ponies, I told my husband when I die, after I am cremated I want the ponies set all around my urn as if they are guarding it. :0)

John Bodin your work blows me away, I haven't done action figures for a while because to do one figure, the amount of work that goes into it, is mind numbing. The fact that you combine your own sculpting is so impressive.

If only this power could be harnessed for Good!

LOL

Question for anyone who might have had to deal with this--

One of my figures that I'm displaying is having a problem with his right leg.
The leg joint is extremely loose and I'm even getting some side to side
wobbling. As such, he's becoming harder and harder to make stand up on
his own. The leg will also bend forward too far.

Is there anyway to tighten the joint or even seal it up? I'd use supeglue but
that turns white as it dries, so that's out. Any thoughts?

Anthony there is a glue called E6000 that is really nice, I like it because it is very strong but you can remove it without tearing up the figure.If I were you, I would take a little out and work it in your fingers (It's kind of like a really strong rubber cement) and shove some into the joint that is loose, when it dries it will get hard and keep the figure in place. If that doesn't work take a toothpick and put some glue on the toothpick and push that into the joint, then stand it how you want it to stay, while it dries.
