![[Atom Smasher (6 Inch)] Hi everybody,
I wanted to do this for a while and was figuring out the parts for quite some time.
I had the idea by seeing the TV show where Atom Smasher was walking amongst the other JLA members in his normal size while not beeing in action. As there is only existing the DCUC BAF figure in 9 inch scale, it was about time to shrink him down to a 6 inch size to blend in with the other heroes.
I took:
the body from Omac,
the upper arms from Cyclotron and
the head of the golden age Atom.
Besides opening the figures to exchange upper arms I had to do some shaving on the wristbands and boots, followed by sanding the whole figure and sculpting the details. The belt gave me some headaches as it was important for me to keep the complete articulation (including waist articulation) and Apoxie Sculpt is everything but flexible.
Then I found a MOTU Fisto in my fodder and cuted his belt out of the figure which is soft and flexible. Cutted the belt into shape using the back part. Had to transfer](userimages/customs/50500/50010-1.jpg) Atom Smasher (6 Inch) | ![[Nemesis Helmet Hinge Repair] Hello realmers,
here I wanted to show you an easy solution for a common problem on a great BAF figure.
As I learned in several forums and toy-collector groups a broken hinge in the helmet of Nemesis seems to be a common problem.
A lot of people solve this problem by glueing the helmet to the body (which will take away the articulation and the possibility of open and close the helmet.
I just simply drilled a small whole in the helmet with my dremmel were the hinge was broken.
Afterwards I took a small steel nail and clipped it of in a lenght that fitts.
I inserted superglue to the whole and stuck the steel nail inside.
To be sure I waited about one and a half hour for the glue to be really dry.
Now I could connect the helmet again with the shoulder part.
As You can see in the pictures the helmet can be closed and opened like he supposed to.
A solid and relativly easy solution for a common Nemesis problem done!
I hope some of You guys can use this in order to repair their Nemesis](userimages/customs/48000/47879-1.jpg) Nemesis Helmet Hinge Repair |
![[Dragon Man Wings Custom] Hello my dear realmers,
here I had to do a repaint of Annihilus wings in order to give my Dragon Man his original look.
Bought him without wings half a year ago and allways wanted this project to be finished.
My aim was to give him a paintjob as close to the original as possible. With a grey primer spray I was on the right way.
Used the fantastic Valejo paints (thanks again to my friend ringomendoza) to do the rest.
Some mixing of different colours, washes and drybrush technics were nescessary in order to come as close as possible to the original.
Several hours and some corrections later it was finished ... Dragon Man wings custom done!
It´s no new idea, but something that was necessary with a beautifull result.
Comments are allways welcome.](userimages/customs/48000/47878-1.jpg) Dragon Man Wings Custom | ![[The Sentry V2] Yes dear realmers,
I know I have done something simillar before, but I felt the need of using a slimer DCUC body and the Remy head with the hair in his face. Like this he looks much more intimidating and even a little crazy ... in a positive way ;-) !
So I used the Yellow Flash / Zoom body, shaved of the wings at the boots and gave him the hands and cape of Atom.
I also glued the original ML Sentry belt to him this time and painted it too.
After a full body paintjob and sculpting the wristbands I popped the Remy head on top.
Gave the one eye an energy light effect and ... Sentry V2 custom done!

![[Red Skull] Hello dear Realmers,
this is my version of an pumped up and scary big Red Skull.
I took the body of Major Maxim and cutted the head of. As there was no neck I had to make one using a screw and apoxit sculpt. Afterwards I took the Nekron head and shaved down the symbols from the top of his forehead. I painted the head with drybrush-style as I kind of liked the texture of the Nekron head and wanted to keep it. Finally (thanks to my friend ringomendoza who send me a picture of the right hydra symbol) I did print it on look-thrue foil and glued it on the left upper arm.
Intimidating Red Skull done!

this dude here is an original custom made after the real life superhero concept of a good friend of mine! He is german and lives in Hamburg, which might be the explanation why he call himself after a flat fish :-D !
(They just love fish there in Hamburg ... some people even call them fish-heads ... but don´t tell anybody)!
It´s a hero that don´t use any weapons, but has a maglite flashlight and an utility belt. The skateboard was an adding from my side for some cool poses and for a "hidden" advertisement so everybody can see who was the custom creator ;-)!
Well now for the work that was put into this one:
The body is from a ML Longshot, head & lower legs with boots are from a ML Wonder Man, lower arms with gloves and elbows are from a ML Ghost Rider.
The motorbike hood was from a Batman movie figure and cut out in a way that the face was free and can be put throu.
It´s removable as are the glasses that were repainted goo](userimages/customs/44000/43555-1.jpg) Die Flunder (the Fluke) Originalby Wallcrawler CustomsHello dear Realmers,

![[Yellow Jacket (with also Grown Muscles)] Hello realmers,
this is my version of Yellow Jacket!
I know this one was done before ... even though I had this idea directly the first time I saw this Yellow & Brown Icon Daredevil Variant. He´s a top choice for a Yellow Jacket!
But what allways disturbed me when I saw the ready customs was the lack of arm & leg muscles. Other than in the comics the Yellow Jacket looked allways kind of slim /thined out when the Daredevil just get a paintjob.
So besides the usual sanding of the figure & the sulpting on the head and filling out the hole on the left leg (which will be there once You get rid of the holster) I decided to sculpt some extra muscles that have to look like they grow with our hero under is Yellow suite.
And when I was allready sculpting I decided to give him some cool looking insect googles.
Painted him in his colours, made also shadings and washings.
Painted the googles, the chest symbol & the belt buckle golden.

He comes with a painted "Despero Gun" plus gunfire, a knife with removable knifeholder, his hook (sculpted) atached to a chain, a sulpted glowing cigar and removable jacket with a sulpted detail on the collar and sculpted biker logo on the back!
Now he is ready to rock and kick some serious DC underpants from the backside :-D !!!!

The body base was a Sota Street Fighter Birdie. I had to cut/ripp the jacket of his body, and fill out the holes in his chest with Apoxie. His head came of and I am still thinking where I will use it in the future because it is very eehhmm ... special ;-) .
Cut & dremmeled down the metall cuffs around his wrists, to look like normal arms. Dremmeled his shoulder joints to have less/no paintrub. Sanded down his shoulders from inside as well for th](userimages/customs/40000/39760-1.jpg) LOBO (with Removable Jacket) |
![[Joker (Harley Quinn -Style)] Well first of all: I would have loved to throw this one in the "sidekicks 2 contest", but who would´ve believed that Joker is the sidekick of Harley Quinn?!? ;-)
Oh well then, I always loved the design of the Harley Quinn outfit and thought it might be cool to give her boss a slightly different look than usual. Just imagine Joker would have escaped from Arkham Asylum and as he arrives at the secret hideout Harley Quin "organised" some new clothes for her big love ... matchin in colours to her own outfit!
Don´t blame my for that background story ... Harley Quinn is the lovesick lunatic here :-D !

So I took a Sotas Remy body and gave him a black and red paintjob with shading all the red parts to not make them apear to bright. He has interchangeabel hands to make fighting fists or hold his gun, card deck or knive.

After I used the head of the Atom I got the body left which seems to be perfect for a Sentry base (just look at the colours and the cape).
