Hello,
Been lurking on the site for a while and thought I would share some pictures of some projects I've been working on.  I just started back up painting recently and just made some of my first customs ever.

Here are the 10th Doctor, Donna and some Ood:



I just finished my Torchwood team:


I also did the SUV --my first custom vehicle. The scale is a little large, but fine for gaming.


Lastly here is Ianto and Jack surrounded by some custom weevils:

Those look great! What minis did you use for the Ood?
Waiter, my soup is giggling.

i see you went for the 2nd season vehicle the one that didnt have TORCHWOOD plastered all over it ,which is very odd for a secret organisation..

That's a very convincing Ianto there.

Glad you liked them!

The Ood are based on the victory force spacefarers crew.

They worked out pretty well for me because they are relatively simple sculpts--I just had to trim off the equipment to get to something in the ballpark. I then extended the arms (added new hands) and pant legs, added the bottom of the jacket, sculpted the head over the existing one, and added the sphere and a bit of wire as the chord.

That was a lucky find--I think I just removed the cigarette and lapel flower on that one. Based on Luigi from  Foundry's Street Violence collection:

I was thinking of doing some alien sleeper agents and I do have a couple of possible figures for a cyberwoman conversion--but I'm working on some more Doctor Who figs, so it'll probably be a while before I get around to working on them. 

I do have a pterodactyl painted and I am working on painting a PC Andy figure.

Very very nice! Can you tell us a little more about the Donna figure?

For the Donna figure I built up the hair (maybe a bit too much) and removed a pistol.  Unfortunately I don't have too much info on the figure.  I bought it years ago and found it loose in a box with a couple of other figures   I got at the time but didn't paint.  I think it was paired with another miniature of a man in a suit pointing a pistol while talking on a cell phone.  That miniature has "VALENT" stamped on the tab --I am guessing that Jeff Valent may have sculpted these, but I couldn't find it on his site.

Very nicely done, there are some good ideas in there for suitable figures  :)
