![["Prototype" Crimson Dynamo] Hello all... I think Ryan kind of got all giggly when the prototype photos of this bad boy surfaced... and since the current owner doesn't seem like he's going to give it up any time soon - Ryan said lets make one!
The head is my very first complete custom sculpt, and I'm "okay" with the turn out. My camera decided it was going to die while I was taking the photos, so apologies for the (somewhat) crappy quality. The base body is various Iron Mans (from what I can tell by the coloring when it was given to me for paints).](userimages/customs/11000/10982-1.jpg) "Prototype" Crimson Dynamo Marvel Legendsby ivorygleamHello all...

![[Ultimate Spiral] Was really digging HML Spiral... but was totally bummed that she didn't have
all that lovely TB articulation in her arms. Ryan set to work to correct
this, luckily no figures were disarmed in the making of this figure.
For any collectors out there: I modified the sculpt on her Ultimate version
so it would match the Hasbro release, so it's kinda of a third "variant."
Base: I think it's Elektra, not sure which one tho - it was all white when
Ryan handed her to me for paint/sculpt.
Head: Elektra, with AF hair @ crown and bangs
Extra arms: fodder from various ladies
Boots: fur created with AF
Weapons: two are from Elektra, and the others are from fodder bin.](userimages/customs/11000/10750-1.jpg) Ultimate Spiral Marvel Legendsby ivorygleamWas really digging HML Spiral... but was totally bummed that she didn't have

Holly and I put her to work. She's a HUGE anime fan, so when we told her Iron Man has a new animated series coming out -- she was excited. Please be gentle, this is her first custom, and she's just a kid. All the paint and sculpt was done by her, except the cutting off of the ears (of course). We've got this posted on a website, and any money is going to go to her "back to school" fund.

![[The Green Ranger] Okay so... Ryan and I have been pretty darn excited with the Power Ranger Legends figures coming out... except that they are IMPOSSIBLE to find in Canada! ARGH, and I'm still trying to justify the $50 people are gauging on a website for... ugh. So in the meantime... Ryan and I decided to make one for ourselves. Our local WalMart (which is crud right now, as it is being renovated), had Sigma 6 figures on for $4.00 -- so needless to say, we picked up a few. They have been collecting dust, up until this weekend, when we broke the seal and started this little gem.
We had a little arguement when it came to the sculpting of the helmet, so Ryan took over for that. After that was dry I started the paint work, as the Sigma characters have some pretty nifty little outfits, I tried to follow those lines, while keeping true to the MMPR suit lines. I'm not sure which Sigma character this was, but he did have a convenient removeable breast plate that worked perfectly for the Green Ranger. I also ha](userimages/customs/9500/9206-1.jpg) The Green Ranger Power Rangersby ivorygleamOkay so...

Like SuperCrew! Yea! Lol. We thought the height difference was excellent, since Shredder should be taller than a turtle. I think Ryan choose a really appropriate base, it worked so perfect for paint, and giving the figure an update. The 1990's Playmates one had him in this wierd wrapping.
Anyway... I think this custom is pretty obvious: head swap, armor swap and a happening paint job.](userimages/customs/9500/9198-1.jpg) Super Shredder |
![[Ace Duck] As we've been doing, here's another lesser appreciated TMNT character, Ace Duck.
I thought that his outfit was a little 1990's, so I revamped it just a tad. Keeping his hat of course, as well as 5 egg bombs and a 15 inch wingspan. The only thing that had to be sacrificed from the base figure was the articulation, he's only got about 16 of 'em.](userimages/customs/9500/9078-1.jpg) Ace Duck | ![[Teddy White] An individual had asked to have himself immortalized with the clothing stylings of Rock Howard from SNK.
