![[Planet Hulk] This is how the Hulk appears in the story arc "Planet Hulk". Cast from Earth by the Illuminati (Marvel's best and brightest heroes), he lands on a planet where his only choice is fight or die.
I sculpted the armour on his left arm. I made sandals using Mr. Sinister cape pieces and sculpting. I made his skirt from foamie strips that I painted for a weathered leather look. His mace is made from an acrylic ball covered in Apoxie, a dowel wrapped in elastic and Apoxie accents and spikes. The blood and gore on the mace is a combination of Clear Red paint, a brown wash, and SFX makeup from Halloween. I also repainted the whole figure a better shade of green. The shield has a few spots where I added some clear red also.](userimages/customs/2000/1601-1.jpg) Planet Hulk | ![[Sentinel] This is simply a Sentinel with light up eyes.

![[Space Ghost] I've been meaning to do this figure for a long time ever since I saw the DCSH Superman figure. I scuplted on the mask, chest emblem, powerbands, and belt buckle and I scuplted over Supe's boot cuffs. As you can tell, I painted every last bit of him. I never really watched the original cartoon from Hanna Barbara, but I watched "Space Ghost Coast to Coast" a while back and I read the comic that recently came out from DC and I love the look the character. I think his cape in the cartoon was yellow on both sides, but the comic has it have a black exterior like Robin's so I went with that look.](userimages/customs/1500/1402-1.jpg) Space Ghost Space Ghostby VariablePenguinI've been meaning to do this figure for a long time ever since I saw the DCSH Superman figure.

I removed Spidey's hand and replaced them with the more articulate movie Human Torch's hands. His head is a rescuplted Bullseye. I custom painted every detail on him. The sword is hand made using a kebob skewer, a small washer, and a lot of grinding. The scabbard is a straw with the end melted shut and painted. His guns are from random other places.
I spent a great deal of time on this figure getting him to look just right.](userimages/customs/1500/1388-1.jpg) Deadpool |

Basically if you've read my review of this figure you will know that I HATE the back pack thing ToyBiz put on him to give him an "action". No action is needed.
I pulled the wings off of the back pack, drilled holes in the approriate place on his back, and held the wings in place (with them bending the right way) with some screws. Viola!

Lobo the Duck is a combination of DC's Lobo and Marvel's Howard the Duck. Two characters with the only thing in relation being that they aren't humans.
I used Howard's body, but removed his arms, sanded his suit and removed his fedora. I sculpted on a vest, muscles and his eyes and hair. His arms arm Superhero Showdown Punisher with a wrestling figures wrists and hands. I also bulked up his arms. The gun is Bishop and the chain is stolen from Spawn with a sculpted hook.

![[American Arachnid] This figure is a fusion of Captain America and Spider-Man.
What if the Super Soldier program used genetic material from a spider to fuel it's serum?
Steve Rogers undergoes the program and recieves the proportional strength and agility of a spider as a result. He also has a sixth-sense for danger, the ability to produce webbing from his wrists and the ability to cling to almost any surface. Armed with a nearly indestructable shield and outfitted in a costume with both a patriot and archnid feel, Rogers stands to battle the NAZI menace.
The body was just your average 1st App Spidey. I removed the head and put on a Prof. X head so I could easily scuplt a mask where the mouth is visable like Captain America wears. I scuplted boot cuffs to further resemble the Captain. The shield and belt are both from Patriot. I modified the shield with elastic straps so it could be more versitle. It can be slipped over his arms and to his back.

He's a Gnoll(hyena-man) hexblade(warrior dark magician).
I used Sasquatch's body for most of the figure. His legs are reworked ManWolf legs with the joints reversed to be more dog like and the feet shortened. The sword is a mini dowel and a piece of plastic with the blade wrapped in aluminium tape and scuplted accents. His armor is a foam sheet with little pieces of metal glued to it to look like a brigandine coat. His head is 100% custom scuplted with no base inside. I was going to try giving him teeth from those dental sticks, but I couldn't get it to work.](userimages/customs/1500/1258-1.jpg) Gollach son of Trogg |
![[The Tick] "Spoooooon!" the battle cry of the biggest, bluest superhero around. The Tick! In a never ending battle between good and not-so-good, the Tick stands ever vigilant to fight the forces of evil in the The City with his trusty sidekick Arthur.
I used the big ol' bulky body of Venom to make this stalwart avenger of justice. I removed a large portion of the body's neck area and scuplted a new neck, top of the chest and upper back area. The head is a complete custom scuplt from scratch. The antennae are made from wire and Plasti-Dip Jr. and are full poseable. I sanded down the little drippy areas on the body and rounded out the fingers to be less claw light. The Tick measures in at 8" from head to toe, but about 8.5" from antenna to toe. He may be huge, but that is the correct scale for a character like the Tick.
The Tick is from "The Tick" comicbook created by Ben Edlund and published by New England Comics.

He was a hunter in the duchy of Crydee and rose to become Duke.
I used the body of Hobgoblin as a base. His head is a movie FF Reed Richards, he has Red Skull from the faceoff series boots, Helms Deep Legolas wrists, bow, and parts of arrows. His surcoat is made from an Aragorn as well as his sword hilt, bed roll, and quiver.

![[Darkseid] The first thing I did with this figure was chop off the top of his head and cut his ankles off. I added some Apoxie in the ankle area to make him a little taller and I scuplted his forehead and eyebrows, made a new nose, and his helmet. I also sculpted his clothes and boots and Dremeled down the torn pants. I made a belt and attached a loin cloth and boot top extensions. I then went a painted him to look like the specimen you see before you. I think the color of blue matches his comic color very well.](userimages/customs/1500/1045-1.jpg) Darkseid | ![[Spider-Girl] This is one of my older figs. I will admit that my paint job on this one was less than stellar. I added magnets to her feet to allow for clinging to things like my fridge. I used a Spider-Man head I had (the head came on a recent figure, but it didn't suit the figure). I custom painted her (of course) and scuplted the wrist launchers. I think she turned out decently.](userimages/customs/1500/1044-1.jpg) Spider-Girl |
![[Days of Future Past Wolverine] I made this figure a while back when I got back into customizing, but before I found this site. I wanted to try steel claws and this was the only Wolverine figure available to me.
I was disappointed in ToyBiz for giving Wolverine green pants, when obviously in the comic he wears jeans, so I repainted his pants to reflect this. I also didn't like that he didn't have gun like on the cover and in the comic, so I scuplted a holster with a gun in it for him (my first try with scuplting Apoxie Scuplt). I think it turned out well. I also didn't like that his gloves just kind of joined with his shirt, so I painted so flesh at his wrists. I buried some magnets in tops of his hands and made some removeable claws for him. After a dry brush of blue on his black shirt, he was done.
I was proud of this figure when I made it and when I sold it. It's what started me on my path of customizing to what I'm able to do now.](userimages/customs/1500/1043-1.jpg) Days of Future Past Wolverine | ![[Joker] I took Arez's idea and went a few steps further. I gave him Bullseye's hands and sculpted the cuff and little raised parts on the back. I scuplted him a new tie, a collar, and a flower. On his face I sculpted a new mouth, chin, and cheeks. I also scuplted some more hair on the sides to cover up where I cut his ears. My paint color was custom mixed. The cane I made from a mini dowel and scuplted the head to resemble the "fool sticks" medieval jester's would carry.

I repainted his head and added the scars and eye patch with apoxie and string. I used AntMan's hands for better poseablity. I had to surround the joints on the arms in Apoxie and move it as it hardend to keep it moveable, I then glued the apoxie into his arms holes. The head was attached with my ball bearing and magnetic trick so his head is moveable and poseable.](userimages/customs/1500/1027-1.jpg) Ultimate Nick Fury | ![[Bane] I saw someone else do this a while back somewhere and thought it looked cool.

I completely scuplted every last detail from the armor, to the helmet, to the blaster and thermal detonator, to the clothes, to the jetpack, including real metal darts and studs in certain areas.
I then went back and added battle damage to the different "metal" parts with my Dremel. I painted the base colors, such as the grey jumpsuit and shoes, the green armor, the colors on the helmet and the jetpack. I then when back over the jumpsuit and shoes with a black wash. I went over the battle damage on the armor with yellow then with silver. I did the same with his helmet and jet pack.
I finally added Wookie scalps made from string, a blaster rifle made from a Punisher machine gun cut up and scuplted alot, a rope belt made from string, foamies and sculpted buckles, and a pouched belt made from Bullseyes's holster belt and cast pouches from his waitbelt, I also a](userimages/customs/1000/991-1.jpg) Boba Fett Star Warsby VariablePenguinThis is my newest masterpiece.
