Custom LEGO Breaking Bad: Gustavo "Gus" Fring
"What does a man do, Walter? A man provides for his family. And he does it even when he's not appreciated, or respected, or even loved. He simply bears up and he does it. Because he's a man."
After watching Breaking Bad with some friends, I was inspired to post more of my custom LEGO Breaking Bad minifigures, mainly Gustavo "Gus" Fring.
Gus was definitely a character I wanted to recreate correctly, and I think I did for the most part.
Gus has dark tan paints with black shoes and a black belt with gold buckle painted on.
His torso was a plain yellow torso, then I painted on the dark yellowish tan collar and pocket as well as the dark blue tie. I think I could have done better on the tie, so I may go back and redo that part.
His face is my favorite part of the figure. It was originally a Captain Panaka head from an older Sith Infiltrator set, which then I rubbed the eyebrows and mouth off with a pencil eraser. I painted on his glasses, mouth, and other facial details. Then, I painted on his black hair which I then dry brushed in dark gray to make him look a bit older.
In order to complete the figure, I knew I had to make his infamous accessory: the Box Cutter. It was made out of a heavily modified green BrickArms Combat Knife and Green Stuff. I then painted it green, then added the silver blade.
Hopefully you all like this figure, but tell me what you think!
If you favorite, a comment is appreciated as well!
