Making a Gladiator Predator | MOC 

Now that’s world building!!! I cut out a part where I talked about not adding a plasma caster and going for a less technologically look and that would totally explain it too! It goes with the whole gladiators being slaves too!! Chefs kiss 🤌🏼

Yoo that sum good cool story

My brother in Christ you make my day, thank you for the feedback like always! you're also crazy for saying efficient but I'll take it! hahaha

@@deadpiratehead HAHAH there’s always time to feed the wildlife!!

DAMN I SHOULD HAVE USED THAT!!!

@@ARFed lol

Are we NOT entertained?! Is this not why WE are HERE?!

@@TheRevenantEdits *THE COLOSSEUM ERUPTS INTO CHEER*

@@ianmachiaverna RIGHT?! At first I thought the skull looked a little off but it ended up looking really good!

THANKS!! I feel like I'm onto something now!!! hopefully, the next one will be even better

THANKS we’re only getting better!!!

Glad I could help!!!

DUDE I TOTALLY MISSED YOUR COMMENT! but hold up you mean I could have just made bought one??! Hahaha let me know how it turns out! Viking is definitely on the list for customs I want to make!

Thanks man! I’m trying to expand my horizons so ill definitely look into it! I haven’t collected McFarlane since they stopped doing Halo, but man where those some of the best figures!!

⁠@@ARFedMan the McFarlane Halo figures were the best! I always have to repaint the new Jazwares ones cause they look like McDonald’s toys

@@InfectiousViper RIGHT?!!! we didn't know what he had until it was gone...

Even without the custom, horn head has always been a good looking figure! And thanks brother! I’m slowly improving😮‍💨

Brother you just wrote the perfect synopsis for a predator movie, I especially like the human element, them both being slaves and ultimately helping each other escape would be the perfect pay off!! It baffles me why there haven’t been more predator movies

@ARFed They took it way to far with the Alien vs Predator series with the kid being hunted because he is autistic and they wanted to harvest that "ability" the father getting the Predator armor and tech... it was just to much... I'm glad they are going back to more primitive times. I would like to see a tie-in with the Aztec. The Pyramids would be a great use as they have incorporated them in the past but I think they could really do something with Mixcoatl and work in a really great story 😀 👍

@@N0xKn1ght RIGHT!!! I really wanted to love the 2018 predator but like you said, it was too much!! kid me loved the first avp, but going back , its a lot more silly than i remembered! so same prey maed me hopefully for the future of predator film, no i just need that aliens series to be good, an then we'll be on the right path!!

That’s definitely one I plan on tackling!! I started working next one which is gonna be an Egyptians style predator but after that I’m thinking we go viking!

THATS WHAT IM SAYING!!! I wasted so much of it too, if only id known how expensive i t was gonna get hahaha

But then how am I gonna get tea?

@@user-uo9ot1rb1e that could actually be interesting! I’ve mostly been focusing on ancient history but a more modern predator would be really cool

AMEN

@@jasonpatchen1912 hey if it works!! It works!!

@@ARFed that's the best thing about customizing lol that's why I love scratch builders

HAHAHA not dumb at all, I’ve seen people use those small fish nets and wrap it to the joint with a little crazy glue! You can also sculpt it using epoxy but that’s super tedious! I would go for no net, but I know that a signature’s look!! This one is tough! Let me know if you figure any way to do it!

@@ARFed I sure will.. thanks

​@@ARFed Let me ask you another question, it's completely different figs but, if e buy a mezco Batman head from eBay, would I get away with putting it on a MCFARLANE, like would it look ok, n the hands too would they look ok, have you seen anyone do it?

@@joelamel8056 sure!! mezco figure tend to run smaller than McFarlane so the body might end up looking bulkier depending on the figure, but honestly I've seen comparisons and head wise they're not too dissimilar, in size! the bodies are where the size really ranges! with McFarlane having taller figures ! look up "McFarlane mezco comparison" on youtube, there's some good videos showing size differences and it should give you a good reference point for your figure! just focus on the head , as long as they look similar in size you should be good to go

@@ARFed your the GOAT .. I appreciate you, thanks for your time and help, looking forward to your next custom video!!

I DIG THAT!! Predators do really well in "history/mythology" so that could totally work! I'm picturing the scene where Grendel breaks into the banquet hall buts it's a Yautja instead, that would be a killer story!! i haven't thought about Beowulf since highschool AHHAH

@@ARFed the only thing I can figure is Grendel’s Mother. What would she or it be?

@@vatofdread1468 I was thinking that too, I rewatched the movie last night hahaha. it got me thinking, if anything it can be a predator ship, with the "myth" portraying it as a dragon.... but then again that's not the most interesting twist! I'll get back to you if I come up with anything better (maybe an elder predator!??)

As far as Mother Grendel, I can think if two things; a female Yautja driven by vengeance for the death of her mate (not sure how Yautja would do stuff like love or marriage) or a Xenomorph that the Predator had on board it’s ship (assuming it’d be set in the same continuity as AVP). Honestly, I’d rather keep it strictly Predator. Maybe it wouldn’t be a direct retelling of the myth of Beowulf. Let’s say that it did happen. It could’ve been that Beowulf did exist and did battle with a Predator. No doubt the story would’ve been embellished over the years, making the Yautja into Grendel and adding the dragon to the story when really it might’ve been the Yautja ship. Either way, I’d love to see this developed further.

@@vatofdread1468 HEY that's not bad!! We've never gotten a female predator but a literal mother-son hunting party would be pretty unexpected the reveal would be great too! Beowulf kills Grendel only for the mother predator to go on a killing spree, that would be topnotch! how has this not been a thing yet??? you need to pitch this to hulu asap
