![[Eddie Vedder] I know, I know, the resemblance is not uncanny, some would say he looks more like jeff bridges on his lebowski role, LOL. But, truth is, this is a very special custom for me. Pearl jam is my all-time favorite band, and Mr Vedder is of course, my favorite singer, songwriter. His lyrics are always touching to me, ever since I was a kid, the little "Jeremy" in me felt identified,and that happened with several songs in each new album, until "just breath" or " amongst the waves" from the latter album, "backspacer". I feel I grown up at the compass of vedder´s lyrics. As the lyrics evolved and matured in their thematic, so did I.
This is my tribute in plastic form to a great musician, and apparently, a clean human being. This is my "second tribute" to him, since I used to sing in a short-lived tribute band to Pearl jam here in Spain, and it was an honor to sing Mr Vedder´s songs in the 8-10 concerts we gave.
Oh,yes, the recipe.](userimages/customs/40500/40194-1.jpg) Eddie Vedder Musiciansby ringomendozaI know, I know, the resemblance is not uncanny, some would say he looks more like jeff bridges on his lebowski role, LOL.

Since I already used one of my favorite costumes on my last Ace figure, I chose my next favorite from The Love Gun cover.
I basicly made the additions out of pleather, with the Vest piping also pleather...the Boots & Wrisband piping is from the figures original shoulder discs. Also, the figure Didn't have the Guitar cord... so I used the twist ties that came with the figure. I love how the "Space" stage piece came out.

My favorite Beatle has always been John, so for this custom I popped in Help! and used it as a reference for my first John Lennon (I've got three more headsculpts for him, and one of each other Beatle). Head was a sanded down Thug head resculpted entirely (the only one I tried doing this for, as I then started using Colonel Quattrich's Avatar MM head, which I'd strongly recommend for others who want to make a Lennon). Body was a pretty simple repaint aside from the sculpting on of his red turtleneck. Guitar is from Bendos figure.

![[The Cure- Robert Smith 1989] What popular culture has finally begun to understand is the effect The Cure has had upon a generation of artists who have grown up with their music, who for the last 30 years have never known a world without The Cure.
For this contest, I decided that a 1989 Disintegration-era Robert Smith would be the most obvious choice; this tends to be the first image of the Cure that most people recognize. This particular look can be from the Lovesong video or from an 89 concert.
The base figure can be seen in the second pic, as well as some of the sculpting and modifications before painting. The part that took the most work was the face- a lot of fine trimming, slicing and sanding to get the fine details. This was very slow and time-consuming, but well worth it. It definitely means the difference between having a figure of Robert Smith, or having a figure of Some Guy Dressed As Robert Smith.
The feet were cut off and repositioned -Mr.Smith usually stands pigeon-toed;)

I had to trim the "giraffe" neck. It's still a little bit too long, but I trimmed all I could without doing damage to the neck peg. I sculpted some hair and painted. The base is an Identity Crisis base that has a VH logo photo glued and sealed over it. The real challenge was the guitar. I made it out some bamboo back scratcher I found at the dollar store. I used a bench grinder and Dremel to make the shape of the guitar and then did a lot of sanding, then painted and "Voila", one guitar. The guitar strap is just some black elastic with some hooks on the ends. I'm giving this to my son for his birthday.
