The Artists Corner

Nick from Lizard Force – Artist of the Month

The Black Ops Toys Artists Corner focuses on people in the 1/6 hobby who make amazing art out of 1/6 scale action figures. Often you’ll hear that toys are to be left brand new in the box to be worth anything at all. But we believe that taking these 1/6 scale action figures out of the box and painting, weathering, gluing, sanding, cutting, stitching, and photographing them makes them more valuable to us (THE ARTISTS). The figures are more than just pieces in a box. Kitbashing artists make the figures come alive. These are the artists we focus on.


Nick Brown, the artist known on social media as Lizard Force, decided to create 1/6 scale action figures with dinosaur heads, and it’s incredible. In this interview, he talks about his process, what inspires him, and how he got started and he shows us some of what he’s working on. You can find Nick’s photographs on his website, Lizardforce.com, and social media on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube
