Electronix

[Dad's Army]

I wanted to come up with a converted figure for FIGZ, an idea I've had in my head for years. An electrician who short-circuited.
This is particularly evident by his upright hair. To add some emphasis, I made an electricity cabinet with a flashing light and some smoke for extra effect. I myself am very happy with the result, the step-by-step I have shown again on my blog for those who are interested.

A great creation, and a humorous figure too! Nice work

I like the base and the sub-station box very much; maybe a little more 'blackening' inside the box is required to help show this unfortunate accident?

[Kekso]

Cool idea, great realization.

[dykio]

you realy are the master in converting these old chewinggum asterix figures. Brilliant

[Peter]

I saw it happen at the FIGZ! Never trust a converted Asterix figure!

Another very clever and fun figure Remco.

I hope he's got rubber soles on those sandals.

[Erik-Jan]

Good one Remco,

Somehow looks familiar, where did you get the idea?

Somehow looks familiar, where did you get the idea?

I heard years ago on a event with a lot of modeltrains a guy saying he would like to make it someday, ever since when I drive by such a electrical box I remember it, so I tought to make it myself...

[Dad's Army]

Thanks all, it was a fun project, at FIGZ someone told me I could better give him another name.

Not Electronix, but Electrocutix (what sounds indeed better)
