But... in the end, I think I got it!
I swapped a set of Siko Legs on it and repaints the legs and the torso... everything from the waist down is painted.
LMK what everyone thinks!

This is one I started quite some time ago... I had the head sculpt finished, but wanted to swap the legs, and matching paint became a bit of an obsession!

I made everyone, but I figured I might as well use the same legs, as I felt painting black legs would be a pain. The toughest one was Uhura, due to removing hair. Mind you, I couldn't get a good skin colour for her face either.

Scotty looks awesome! Pictures of the other crew please Tiberius. I was a dream of mine to make all the TMP crew but I lack the skill to produce the female torso and the spares. I have commissioned heads for Rand, Chapel, Decker, and Ilia plus a few alien heads but I was just going to plop them on TWoK bodies. How feasible is a TMP crew?
Bear in mind my spare time is taken up on a 1:350 TMP Enterprise atm...

The easiest way to do the men, is either trim spock's collar or get the exclusive kirks. I painted chekov and sulu a tan colour. I modified uhura's torso from a lavender troi and added a skirt from an original series uhura, that I converted into a future number one. I did use all wok heads, except Scotty, who I had too many red shirts to make. I think my pics are in my TMP thread, or pics should be at photobucket.com/tiberiusguy
