I’m back with a new custom action figure! Actual semi regular updates! Crazy, I know. Anyway, my latest custom figure is that of the silent assassin Quiet, from the video game Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. This was a commission for a client who wanted a figure of Quiet in the 6″ Marvel Legends scale. She was really fun to make. I particularly enjoyed sculpting the hair and the bikini…BECAUSE I GOT TO PRACTICE SCULPTING FABRIC AND NO OTHER REASON GET YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER. It was a lot of fun cobbling together her harness as well. Be sure to visit the page for this custom for the full photo set and details on how it was made. And check out the Youtube video for this custom action figure to see exclusive WIP photos! Thanks for taking a look. See You next time. [INSERT A QUIET PLACE MEME HERE]

 

New Custom Action Figure! – Dark Claw from Amalgam Comics (Batman/Wolverine Hybrid)

Hey everyone. I’ve got a new custom action figure to show you. This time I’ve made Dark Claw from Amalgam Comics, the hybrid between Batman and Wolverine during the mid 90’s Marvel VS DC Comics crossover event! Even if you’ve never read the comic, you’re probably familiar with the image. He has a striking and ridiculous design, and the fact that it’s Batman and Wolverine combined makes sense that he’s always been a fan favorite. This was a commissioned piece. Dark Claw is made from a Marvel Legends Juggernaut Wave Wolverine, with a whole bunch of sculpting, fabricating, and painting, with a poseable cape! Be sure to check out the full photo set and description HERE. And also make sure you check out the Youtube video, featuring a ton of exclusive WIP photos! Thanks for taking a look.

Be sure to visit the gallery page for the full photo set and description on how Captain Falcon was made, and you can check out the Youtube video for this custom action figure to see some exclusive Work In Progress photos and see the process!

Hey guys. I know it’s been a long time since I updated the site. I promise you I haven’t gone anywhere though. I’ve been steadily working the past year and a half on various commissions, I just haven’t had time to update the site. But I’m planning on changing that and slowly start updating regularly again. And with that I bring you my latest custom action figure, Captain America based on his look in Avengers Infinity War as The Nomad! I had to carefully study the trailer frame by frame to get this right. I also made a custom pair of “Vibranium Wakanda Battle Shields” for him to wear on his forearms. These are based on the shields he’s wearing at the end of the trailer. Cap is up on eBay right now, so if you’re interested in owning this custom, just CLICK HERE to bid. Also be sure to check out the full page for Captain America so you can read the entire description on how he was made. And be sure to check out the Youtube Video for exclusive WIP photos. I’ll see you guys later, and I promise it won’t take a year and a half haha.

 

New Custom Figures – Armored Batman with Light Up Eyes and Movie Repaint Batman!

Hey everyone. Now that Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice is here, I wanted to celebrate with some customs! I bring you two this week. The first is a repainted DC Comics Multiverse Batman v Superman Batman. He’s been repainted head to toe to be more realistic and movie accurate, had the weird cowl texture sanded down, given a new fabric cape, and I’ve given him a grapnel gun, and a movie accurate batarang I made out of styrene. The second is Armored Batman with light up eyes!. With some customizing magic, I added an LED inside the figure so Armored Batman’s eyes light up in that awesome intimidating way like in the movie. Not only that, but this one has also been fully repainted to look more realistic, and he’s got a fabric cape, and I even made him a Kryptonite spear, like the one he uses in the film. I’m really proud of how I was able to fit the wiring, switch, and battery compartment in the figure.

Be sure to check out the pages for each custom to see lots more pics, and read up on how they were made. Also, the Youtube videos for my Batman and Armored Batman custom figures have exclusive WIP photos! The Batman and Armored Batman customs are also up for auction on eBay this week. If you’re interested, or know someone who might be, click the pictures below to take you to the corresponding auction page. Thanks for looking!
