TMNT Feudal Style: Splinter

Completed 12/10/2011

 

 I sketched out Splinter to go along with the feudal turtles. I didn’t want to change his over-all look too much. The idea was for him to be a younger version, who is rather unassuming in appearance, but can throw down in a split second if needed. I imagined him as sort of a wanderer with his straw hat and walking stick/sword (you get the idea).

 

 

 

This is, easily, the most “Frankensteined” out figure I’ve ever put together.

 

Head: Original design and sculpt
Body: Toybiz Bishop’s torso, shoulders and upper legs
Arms: Mid-arms from WWE figure. Lower arms/hands from another WWE figure
Lower Legs: Old battle damage Spider-man
Sculpt: All costume details, hat, sword handle and sheath. Used bendable sculpey for the belt straps, tail and bottom of robe.
