    Turn a Disney Infinity Toy into a

    Statue

    Hello!

    Last month I decided to turn one of the Disney Infinity toys into a statue to use as the centre
    piece for a new park-themed tile I’m currently working on for Marvel: Crisis Protocol, and in
    this post I’d like to share the process for doing so.

    The “guide” is a little rough because I was more or less improvising as I went along, but will
    hopefully give you some ideas you might find useful should you wish to try something similar.

    To begin with I stuck the figure down with super glue onto this lid from a face cream to create
    the plinth:
    And here I’m just stippling on some filler (spackling paste) to create the stony texture:

    I then primed him in black followed with some grey and white zenithal highlights applied from
    above with the airbrush:
    Next, I sprayed on some Sepia Ink by Daler Rowney. I thinned this with some water (maybe
    around 1 quarter water?) and sprayed it on in a couple of thin layers, taking care not to over
    spray which might cause the ink to run. You can see that the zenithal highlights have been
    nicely preserved:

    Next I sprayed some of Daler Rowney’s Dark Green Ink quite lightly into the mid tones and
    highlights, and didn’t mind if it was a little irregular – so stronger in certain parts than others:
    I then mixed a few of the other inks I’ve got to create a dark purple tone (I played with Indigo,
    Purple Lake, and Sepia, but any dark, purplish tone would be fine):
    I sprayed this from a lower angle, up into the shadowed areas:

    This gave me the nice range of colour modulation I was looking for:
    Finally, to increase the depth in the strongest shadows, I applied a little Payne’s Grey:

    This is a lovely blueish/purplish off black:


    I shot this to some specific places only, such as the lowest part of the shield:

    And here into the shadow on the lower back:


    And that completes the actual statue – minus any weathering you may wish to add:

    For the plinth, I used a grey scale of Stonewall Grey (VMA), Black, and Ivory:
    I also applied a light dry brush to pick out the texture:

    Followed with some thinned Shades (Agrax Eathshade and Athonian Camoshade) which I
    applied in quite a patchy way:
    I then freely added a few spots of weathering using Ivory, greys, even a little Nihilakh Oxide
    etc:
    And I’ve begun adding some posters and graffiti to the plinth:
    I’ll probably add some more graffiti, but you get the idea!
    And that’s it! I hope some of you found this post helpful. Of course there are many different
    ways you could paint the statue; you might prefer a more weathered, stony look like I did
    for these two:

    I just need to finish off painting my “Daily Grind” coffee stand, and the new park area will be
    complete!
    Watch out for more coverage of Marvel: Crisis Protocol from me soon, including painting
    guides for Green Gobin, Hella, Rocket, and M.O.D.O.K.

    Stay safe, and Happy Painting!

    Sorastro.
