Saturn Knight is part of the Flashback Universe, a fan made universe of comics you can look in their site. I found it by chance surfing by the net, and read some of the comics which had a nice and fresh feeling. All the designs were quite imaginative and interesting, and I went for Saturn knight to make a custom of them.

![[Athena] Here is Athena, greek goddes of Wisdom and Justice. This custom was made in a moment of inspiration, as the body was perfect, and I had all the right parts. The only sculpted thing was the skirt and some very minor details.
This is the Marvel version of Athena, although it could pass by a lot of Athena's of other universes. It also looks like a DC Themyscira amazon, or a Myth Cloth Mythologic era Athena.

I looked through his various costumes and drawings and decided for a shadowed eyes version. I used some parts of the DC Ares, such as the head and sword. The skull is a paper decal.
This custom took a good deal of time and concentration. Thanks to using a wrestler, he can articulate the arms as if it was a regular factory made figure.

It is interesting and mysterious at the same time, Moon Knight without the egyptian background would much less. Although Khonshu doesn't appear much, he possessed Moon Knight during some time.
The look of this custom is a fusion between the Marvel Select statue, and the images from when he possessed Moon Knight.

Frankly, I'am not sure if I saw it when I was a kid, or if I confuse it with Bravestarr. Sometime ago I saw the episode 1 and more or less know what is the series. Recently I made this figure for a friend. He is Stingray, a figure that didn't have a toy, I suppose much like Shadow Weaver in MOTU. He has powers like Cyclops, when he removes his glasses he launches a optic ray.
As I've seen, I think I'am the first to post a custom of this collection in Figurealm, I have introduced in Galaxy Quest which sounds similar.

Using bodyputty (melted plastic with acetone, the closest I had to cheap & durable sculpting material) it occured to me why not try to make an action figure making part by part (I had made before bodyputty statues).
I'am not sure why, I chose Shadi (I'am not a fan of Yugioh, I've never seen a complete episode, and I hate the protagonist, anyway) but his face resemblance to an android from Dragon Ball and the circumstance that I received a Tazo/Pog of this character made him the candidate. The result wasn't perfect, but at that time it seemed a triumph. With the passing of time it broke (the articulations were just metal nails onto the plastic) and I kept the main body hoping to repair it someday.
And recently, looking for what to do with Kamandi, I remembered my original Shadi and decided to make him again wi](userimages/customs/40000/39770-1.jpg) Shadi Yugiohby argenta-2008Once upon a time, in a far, far... well, not so far house, I tried my first attempt to create a articulated figure from scratch (I didn't knew the wor...4 comments |

I've done in the past two other versions, both were good at their time, but I decided to make this definitive version.
I looked specifically what body I could use, I thought of many SW figures but I had to desist due to their rarity (and I can't customize a figure I want for my collection!). So I decided for a X-23 of Marvel Universe.
But there was a problem.
The X-23 is badly proportionated -far too long legs- so I had to cut them and reglue them so she is as tall as a regular Clone Trooper. I took out the rubber parts, resculpted everything, I made a mechanism for the shoulder pads (the previous ones didn't have it), and I made a ponytail with Magic Sculp which I later casted in rubber so it can bend, being able of moving freely her head.
I chromed slightly her shoulder pads, and painted with Tamiya Clear Yellow the lightsaber.
