I love animation, anime, and video games, which are a great inspiration for lots of my customs. Transformers have always been a big part of my life so I do a bunch of them as well. Lots of people go indepth with the detail on them but not me I have always loved the animated, fun looking figures!! If anyone has any questions for me please feel free to ask. I can be contacted here at figure realm. All feedback is welcome. Thanks for looking! And yes that Ninja is I!!!

I'm open to advice on painting and sculpting

Im turing characters from the DC Universe in to Marvel Legends style because the articulation is much better in the Marvel Legends figures then in any of the DC figures.

As you can tell, my big thing besides customizing is drawing. I have a pretty popular Webcomic called Mint Condition, albeit it's still in its infancy. You can check it out clicking on the link in my profile (or just typing it out), or in my signature on any post that I make.

I started customizing as a hobby on 2003. I feel that I need to learn more about this hobby, because I really suck at sculpting, but hey! as they say, "practice makes perfect". Now I could say that I've been around for a while and that I have a lot of customs. My list keeps growing!!!

I think custom making action figures is the best thing u can do. Like when i was younger when i got a figure that was from a movie i would always add more to it cause most toy companies lack on keeping to the precise detail and that is where us customizers come in at!!!! :)

I've always been an artist so customizing is just a combination of my two favorite things, toys and art. It is the perfect way to show a more unique side or art and has let me experiment with different mediums and to get really cool action figures in and out of the process.

I'm a big Marvel Legends fan and very much enjoy customizing. Would love to chat to anyone about customizing or any Marvel related subjects. PEACE!!

I've been customizing for about 6 years now, I've done about 70+ most which are displayed here. I really like the Realm cause it truly embraces and encourages us customizers. I've gotten some cool advice and comments from a few of you here so I just wanna say thanx.Also wanna say wuz up 2 Silverclown who got me into collecting figures in the first place and I've known for more years than I care 2 count. Peace!

As if you couldn't tell, JRS is a collaborative action figure customizing effort of Ryan and Holly (who refers to herself as ivorygleam). Ryan does the hard stuff, like ripping them apart and putting them back together & dremmling - I hate that part! And I forefront all the painting and sculpting - as well as managing the website (or at least trying to).

I'm starting to realise my secret shame for elastic bands and Darice Foamy sheets... My main attraction is the X-Universe so let me know if you have any requests!

Boskoes is Ben & Danielle, were a married couple that live in Pa, we've been doing customs for about a year, and we really couldn't ask for a better gig, thanks for everyone at figure realm for all your kind words and all your shared ideas and the chance to get to see everyone elses talent.

im not the best at customizing but I love doing it and have a great time sharing them and seeing other people's customs as well, i also like having my figures pose in cool ways too!

my inspirations are dr. nightmare, jin satome, and all the rest of you thanks again.

I've been doing this for a while now, and have picked up some tips and tricks that I'll share. Just ask.

i may be working on mvc and others but im also starting a secret side poject that with any luck will be done by october tops

I have been customizing for about a year now and live in Canada, I wish to represent the Great White North and put us on the map for the customizing world.

"I am a Public Relations Consultant in profession and am based in the Philippines. I have been customizing the little plastic guys since late 2006 and found it to be an enjoyable and rewarding hobby. I am both very happy and humbled to be part of this wonderful site. In here, I have made a lot of friends, learned new tricks, shared some of my own and was able to bump around with some of the best custom artists in the world. FigureRealm is definitely one of the places to go to see top-notch customized masterpieces. Now... Spread the word!" -Dave (loosecollector)

I enjoy making custom figures that aren't necessarily mainstream. Have you ever heard of the "My Dinner With Andre" action figures? It's a gag they had in "Waiting for Guffman." The figures I make are supposed to be fun, and if they give you a chuckle, then they're doing what they're supposed to.

I think that customizing is more than a mere hobby like most people think. Its a thrill and to make the best custom you can make, the inner reward is priceless. I currently love to make drawings for future figures I plan to work on. But I think that the fun part is actually making them. Being an artist I tend to make actual characters my own personal way. Not the way they are supposed to be. But I love to stay true to the original so I get the best references I can get my hands on. Being only 12 years old, that can be hard sometimes to aquire. I truly must thank my Father, Jim, and my Mother, Regina, and my Grandparents and uncle Joe. They all encourage me to do the best work that I can do and buy me the action figures and supplies that I need.

Any painting questions or how to anyone wants answered let me know

If you have any questions or comments you can contact me here or at Toy Soup. Commissions are always available.

I would like to give mention to Redmist. He is the one that will light the fire under me to get up off the Xbox and finish up my customs. Lets not forget about The realm itself. Giving me the inspiration to get busy.

cant think of any right now.

glad i found this place everyone is awsome... you guys do great work...

Makin Marvels, (Marvel figures) from anything I can get my hands on.

I'm always up for learning new things. if anyone ever wants to chat my screennames are TheDrabOne and DeltaIndiaTango

Dr Nightmare is a highly resourceful customizer (which is ironic considering he has very few resources to work with). I like to do customs of female characters, mostly because no matter how you paint them they always look good! I'm looking for 1/12 scale vehicles to customize, mainly I need a 69 Pontiac GTO and a 72 Ford van. See if you can guess why, hah. Apparently cool 1/12 scale vehicles are rare, especially in die-cast metal like I'm looking for, so this is going to be a challenge...and a pain in the wallet...

My name is Punstarr and I've been customizing since 1993. I enjoy using Marvel Legends as my base figures. Back in the day I made dozens of customs, but unfortunately I no longer have most of those anymore as it's been more than 13 years. For the longest time I stopped customizing, until about 4-5 months ago when I discovered this site, which told me this cool hobby was still alive and kicking. Ever since then I've been watching my fellow customizers and with each figure I get better and better. I'm finally coming into my own and I'll be honest; without this community, the hobby wouldn't be anywhere near as fun.

He creado un foro para que todo aquel hispano-parlante pueda compartir sus creacciones con otros aficionados a la customizacion de figuras de accion y para charlar de novedades en cuanto a este hobby en español. Visitalo Busca en google: /Anesescustomfigures/ I´ve created this forum for people who just speaks spanish and wants to share his figures with other people or just talk in spanish about action figures hobby. I´m into customizing as a hobby, but It´s a honour sharing this site with such a great artists as Kyle, Jessecuster, Arez and so much more.

Am possibly interested in continuing my education in Computer 3D imageing. Buying a casting pot and an Iwata airbrush a.s.a.p. expanding beyond the normal defined boundaries of this "hobby"!

Use of oil based paint is quite dangerous, as you may mess the figure...I have sometimes.

I'm just looking to improve with every custom that I make. I do this just for fun and I love checking out all the great work everyone puts up over here at Figurerealm.

i think my cutoms need some work on but they are coming out great.

I'm a big marvel fan and basically just art itself. Always wanted to have a collection of action figures but didn't have the money, so i decided to make some. ^_^ Any questions feel free to PM me, commissions are als welcome!

Specializing in the darker forms of customizing. Check out tpcustomstudio. com for more info

I'm a big Fan of Masters of the Universe, Marvel, Batman and Berserk,loving Action Figures. I try to put all different types of Action Figures together...best way i can...your customs are a wonderfull inspiration to me!!! like watching them!

I promise to never make a Dead Pool Custom

Thanks for being a bunch of cool cats and I'll try my best to keep on impressing you guys with great customs.

thanks to all past customizers who gave me inspiration to start customizing myself

I'm a big fan of Marvel. Especially of the Midnight Sons and a lot of those obscure characters, as well as Spider-Man!

hello people of the world how are you today? good any way i have finaly got my young avengers team together so check them out and with the origanal figures from the box set these guys look very imposing still not managed to get my crossbow or tibult figures finished but my little army of bad guys is coming together nicely and as soon as i get some more foder i shall be starting on my young masters of evil so that will be lovely stuff any how check out my figures and tell me what you guys think...... love to your mothers

What can I say? It's a great hobby! I've been at it since 2005 and still going strong and improving. I've come a long way and look forward to what lies ahead. I'd say my main areas of interest are Superman and Batman related figures as I'm a big DC fan. I've done about 175 custom figures so far and have at least 15 in progress at any given time. I must give credit to my custom mentors, the ones who inspired me to get into this hobby and those are...Matt "Iron Cow" Cauley, Bruce "Glorbes" Ross, and Jin Saotome. There are several others who I've learned from and continue to learn from but those three guys really helped me develop my own style and taught me so much about paints, sculpt, fabrics, you name it!

Freshmen in Stony Brook, Fun hobby customizing. Just like how i make figures a little better by doing mods and sculpting. Going to take a break so I don't flunk out of college.

Hello everyone my name is Sebastian and im 19 years old. At the moment Im visiting the Highscool and so I have not much time left to do lots of customs. I spend most of my freetime with my friends or Im reading comics (especially marvel X-Men) I like customizing since Ive first visited this site. I wouldnt never count me to the best featured customizers on this web side but I hope that I can improve my work a bit.

I remember not so long ago I was I think the only member that didnt customize, how things change
