not sure if this is allowed or not... having a collection of figures rather than having to submit a page for each figure. my daughter is obsessed with peppa pig (she 8 now but shes got autism so she still loves it) but for some reason they made about 5-10 official characters and stopped making any more just kept reproducing them in new colours...WTF?!!!!, so i decided to make her some extra characters with all the duplicates we gathered over the years, the characters are both from the actual t.v series, plus a few characters she thought of herself. mose figures are simply swapped head and repainted but some are sculpted (zuzu&zaza, edmund, the kangaroos) picture one... kylie kangaroo mummy kangaroo twins zuzu and zaza zebra uncle and auntie pig with cousin chole and baby Alexander(and buggy) Mrs cow, Candice cow (with official Mr bull) mrs hamster the vet, hannah hamster gabby gazelle (with official madame gazelle) daddy zebra(postman), mummy zebra, zebadee (with official zoe zebra) brownie leader mrs bear with brownies picture 2.... wendy wolf freddy fox delphine and dori donkey twins belina and bethany badger edward elephant edmond elephant charle cat chole cow belinda bear spider pig (george pigs birthday costume) mummy dog and daisy dog (with offiial danny and daddy dog) mummy zebra and daddy zebra taylor tapir pic 3..... captain grandad dog steam boat, made from a grandad pig boat with re-sculpting work and then repainted park made from wooden base with loads of peppa pig park items attached then painted  |

Update Your Custom
Please wait...
im pretty sure it was just mummy sheep (body and head) with the tips of mummy rabbits ears attached then just repainted,
tbh you could prob get away without swapping the ears over plus it might be safer with as a 3yr old may chew them off
Do you not fancy selling some of your work, my little one is obsessed with Peppa Pig.

first I pull the head off as its only glued on so a few wiggles tend to do the trick if its a stubborn one I use the pilars but this can damage the toy so just be aware of that.
then to split the body,
I use a old wooden shelf and sit the figure on the edge so the legs are hanging off.
then I use a flat headed screwdriver and place it on the top (where the head was) where the molds close together and then tap it with a hammer...some only need the tiniest tap some needs a good whack
hope that helps
yeah belinda and co were the same figures as peppa but I kind made them taller by heating the legs and stretching them its not that noticeable on their own but when placed next to a standard figure you could tell the difference,
as for the eyelashes....with a craft blade can you scrap them off?, thats what I done with daddy pig's glasses when turning him into uncle pig,
hope that helps, can't wait to see the stuff you create
my neice has just into it so maybe some new ones may appear soon
most of the older ones I used 'green stuff' and then later on as I started doing more customs I changed to 'aves apoxie scult- fix it'
I found aves much easier to sculpt and shape but as you don't need loads for theses figure price wise green stuff is a much better option they are both a 2 part apoxies so you mix equal amounts of part A and part B and then it becomes a scuplting putty/clay, both of these products are widely used amongst toy/action figure customizers and can be found at most model shops or good old Ebay and both of these air drying so would be fine - no baking needed.
freddy fox is quite easy....this was just a danny dog with a sculpted tail. then repainted
delphine was made with the following parts....
suzy sheep head
emily elephant body(I used this body as its got the same shape tail on the back as delphines)
pedros nose
rebecca rabbits ears
then repainted
thanks again
I used tamiya acylic paints, then I used a tamiya spray gloss just to give it some extra protection
I have lots of duplicate figures and I'd love to do this, not sure my painting skills are up to it though!!?
The playground idea is also a great idea to mount them all on a base. Well done you should be very proud and I bet she loves them.
go on,have a go....whats the worst that can happen?
the playground it was just nice to have it in one place, I wanted to make the climbing frame to but didn't get round to it
