Paladin was made from Marvel Legends Nick Fury. His head and body type were ideal for this figure. Since Fury was made from black plastic, I didn't have to worry about painting his joints. This made the finial figure very possible. I started by removing all unwanted detail from Nick. I carefully removed the holster from his chest, since I knew it would be needed for Paladin leg holster. I then went to work with the Magic Sculp putty. Purple foam strips were cut and placed on sheets of plastic stryine for his armor. This allowed the figure to move without being stopped by armor that was made from ridged material.
