Customizing - Patton "Triple P" Plame
Another one of my customizing projects, especially for you hamsterwoman ;)
I am still obsessed with "NCIS New Orleans". I took Keanu Reeves as John Wick and John Diggle (from "Arrow") and created myself a Patton Plame.
Can you see at the hip at one side, where I cut it rounder? That was because he is sitting in a wheelchair and his legs were not able to go up far enough. By cutting it rounder, the thighs were not bumping against the edge anymore.
I also had trouble with the heads again. As you can see, the thick brown plug would be far too huge to fit into the hole where the former thin black plug was in.
I managed to pull both plugs out. I thought I just switch them.
But as you can see, the neck looks unnatural long.
The reason is that the head is too small for the bigger body.
So I cut it shorter. Which means again losing articulation but it had to be.

Much better, isn't it?
As you can see, the shoulders also look odd, after removing the jacket. So I had to file them down to make them rounder.
From then on it was just a paint job. I did not exactly match the pattern of the shirt but this was the best I could do in this scale.
Anyway, the actor liked it very much and even posted it to his Facebook and Instagram. I bet he never thought to see an action figure of himself!
