![[Toro] Inspired by the fact that Marvel brought Toro back, I decided to make an updated version to add to my Invaders set. I took the body of a ML Archangel and added the head of a classic X-Men Angel. While the latest Torch series was AWESOME, it was hard to find a decent full body shot of Toro's new look. I decided to go with a darker blue and a gray for the colors.

Jegudiel is also known as the bearer of God's merciful love and also angel over Friday. Considered as one of the seven archangels in a variant Catholic system, which pairs each archangel with a specific day of the week and attribute.
For my last Archangel,I started with Lex Luthor's armored form. For the head I used a Dr. Streange head from DMC Customs. The wings come from a Marvel Legends Archangel.

He is one of the seven archangels in Eastern Orthodox tradition, and in traditional folk Catholicism.[1] When depicted in iconography by himself or with individual characteristics, he is shown in an attitude of humble prayer, with downcast eyes and arms crossed over his breast.[2] Prayer is considered his special attribute,[3] and Orthodox Christians will seek his help if their prayer is suffering from distractions, inattentiveness, or coldness. (Wikipedia)
For this figure I started with the body of Falcon with the head of Peter Parker from the Stan Lee figure. Since Selaphiel is the emodiyment of humble prayer, I wanted to keep him simple, nothing flashy. Just one more to go.

Today we have Raphael. I decided to go with a black angel this time. Raphael is also called God's healing. He is mentioned in some of the Bible's Apocrapha books such as Enoch and Tobit. In acient depictions, Raphael is shown with a staff and a glowing orb floating above the staff. Since I have yet to figure out how to make things float, I went with what you see.
For the base I used an Archangel from an X-Men classic line. The head is a custom cast of an unknown character done by DMC customs.

He "stands at the Gate of Eden with a fiery sword," or as the angel who "watches over thunder and terror." In the Apocalypse of Peter he appears as the Angel of Repentance, who is graphically represented as being as pitiless as any demon. In the Life of Adam and Eve, Uriel is regarded as the spirit (I.e., one of the cherubs) of the third chapter of Genesis. He is also identified as one of the angels who helped bury Adam and Abel in Paradise.
For this warrior angel I decided to go for something big and intimidating, yet friendly at the same time.

For Doc I used the upper body of Marvel legend's Hercules. The lower body came from a DC Direct Public enemies Hawkman. I use an Ares head (which I got from DMC Custom castings)to top him off. I chose to go with the Marvel version of Doc Savage. I painted on the vest because I felt it helped show off his definition better than making a vest.

Peter is an American stripped down Sub-Mariner. While he could breathe under water and presumably could withstand some of the oceans depths, he could not fly nor does he have super strength. At some point he came across a magic cutlas that is capable of cutting through most substances. The Fin reappeared a few years ago in Marvel's attempt to revive the Invaders. Apparently the magic of the Cutlass has kept him from aging.
For this character I started off with a DCUC Bat-Man. The head is a Commander Steel head that I got from DMC costom castings. The Fin on top of his head is just a piece of plastic my wife cut for me.
