Later members included Rage, Darkhawk, and Scarlet Spider. It was their fight with Nitro, and subsequent massacre of 100s of school children, that led to the superhero Civil War.
Finally got around to taking some team shots. I spiffed up all of them with new paint-jobs, corrected Firestar's lopsided leg, gave Nova's shoulders more freedom of motion, and added Night Thrasher's facial scar. I have other team members like Rage and Dagger, but decided to focus on the originals for these pics.

![[Steel Spider] Ollie Osnick started out as a Dr. Octopus fan. He made his own tentacles, and masqueraded as Doc Ock. After a run-in with Spider-Man, he started to idolize the wall-crawler and began to emulate him. Calling himself Spider-Kid, he tried to be a crime-fighter, and formed a team with Toad and Frog-Man. While in college, he changed his costume and renamed himself Steel Spider. During a run-in with the Thunderbolts, Venom bit off and ate one of his arms!
This one started off with the black-suit Spider-Man. I grafted the lower part of Nick Fury's face onto the head. Belt is from Moon Knight, and gauntlets are partly made from Omega Red's belt strap. The small tentacles on the costume are from Constrictor, and the larger ones are from the Sentinels. The backpack was made from a fodder piece, I believe it was part of War Machine's kit. Costumes details are label tape.

![[Purple Man] Zebediah Killgrave was a spy from Yugoslavia. On one fateful mission, he came into contact with a chemical that turned his body and hair purple. It also gave him the power of mind control, the ability to literally tell people what to do. Becoming a criminal, he frequently clashed with Daredevil, and later, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.
A pretty straight-forward custom: Sentry head on a Professor X body, with Spider-Woman hands. The hardest part was trying to get the skin tone right. Since I was inspired to make this figure from watching the Avengers cartoon, it seemed right to follow their example, and give him a two-tone purple complexion.

![[Ethan Edwards AKA Virtue] Ethan Edwards has the standard Superman origin (alien scientist sends baby in a rocket to Earth, adoptive parents raise baby on a farm, giving him strong moral character), but with a twist: He's a Skrull! Ethan goes to the big city to work as a reporter and fight crime. After an encounter with Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four, he learns of his true origins. Confused, he lashes out at the heroes. He (seemingly) comes to terms with his Skrull heritage, and becomes a faith healer. Reversing this decision, he joins Wonder Man's Revengers to battle the Avengers, due to their role in the defeat of the Skrulls in the Secret Invasion.
I initially planned on making one of Virtue's earlier Superman-like costumes. After re-reading the comics, I noticed the costume was only used in a few panels and discarded, so I went with the latest one. The base is all Piledriver, with some mods to the legs.

I've been planning these pics for years! With my recent Marrina custom, I was ready to go. All the other figures have been touched-up and/or reworked: I changed the colour scheme on Puck, gave Guardian and Vindicator metallic red paint, and washed the white areas and highlighted the eyes on Guardian's costume. I shortened Shaman's neck, and one of Northstar's legs. Diamond Lil's calves were reshaped, sanded, and repainted. Wild Child's purple areas were darkened, then dry-brushed. Box got a shinier silver repaint. The only non-custom, Sasquatch, was reworked as well. I added more hair and painted his claws.

The hand and foot webbing was made from hair bands. The swimsuit involved a lot of glueing and cutting.

I recently bought the new ML Ultimate Cap for the purpose of making Red Guardian. I ended up using another Cap for RG, but as soon as I looked at Cap's vest, I remembered Arabian Knight from the Union Jack limited series. I started out with a Sentry variant head (CK casting) on a Punisher body. The neck was too long so I shortened it. The arms are a combination of Wonder Man (upper) and Kraven (lower). The boots are from Nick Fury, and the sword is Ultimate Nightcrawler's. The sash is a combination of Dr Strange's and red vinyl. Finally, I gave him a knife as a back-up weapon.

A pretty straight-forward custom; face-off Daredevil body with lower arms replaced with the new Ghost Rider's (Ronin/the Hand). The cape is from Magneto. The big challenge for me was getting the mask right. Originally I wanted to make it like Zemo's version, a tight leather fit, as opposed to the current faceless look. I decided to compromise.

My fourth and final U-Foe. I liked the classic, all-green look of Vapor, but wanted to spice it up a bit, and not just be a plain bodysuit. I used Invisible Woman's body because I liked the design.
