![[Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker] Now I have Baron Strucker, the leader of HYDRA! I did Madame Hydra first, then I saw Jake's and Mickey11935's Von Strucker figures utilizing the Air Strike Wolverine figure as the base. I used the Face Off Baron Von Strucker's head, Satan Claw and boots. I painted everything and made a logo for the chest. The logo's yellow is not the same as my paints, and I couldn't get a flesh tone close to his head for the neck, but I am still pleased with the results!](userimages/customs/8000/7855-1.jpg) Baron Wolfgang Von Strucker Marvel Legendsby bodymanNow I have Baron Strucker, the leader of HYDRA!

Ok, I have Hydra goons, Now all they needed was a leader! I took a Psylocke figure, added some hair to cover her eye, then repainted her. I made the belts from the strap of a fodder pouch bag, and made two holsters from Darcie foam. The cape came from a Moon Knight.](userimages/customs/8000/7609-1.jpg) Madame Hydra Marvel Legendsby bodyman"Oy with the Madame Hydra!!" Spiderman: New Avengers #11.

![[Red Skull (Lukin)] Super easy custom, and to me, the perfect modern Red Skull! Thanks to bradnelson and VariablePenguin for this recipe. I used the Xavier body with a Face Off Red Skull head.

Bet you can't tell she is just a simple Psylocke repaint! ;) I wanted to keep her simple as I can't claim to be too good at all of the hair and body part swapping or sculpting that others have used for their customs. The other bonus for me was finishing her in a weekend! I couldn't find an easy way to make the circle with triangles that she should have on her chest, any ideas? Now I can't wait till I get a Hasbro Ronin to finish my New Avengers collection.](userimages/customs/6500/6251-1.jpg) Echo Marvel Legendsby bodymanHere is my version of Echo from the New Avengers!

![[New Captain America] Here is my New Captain America. He was made with the torso and upper arms from Moon Knight, the forearms and hands from Madman, the legs and head from Capt. Marvel. I borrowed a gun from Domino and a Capt. America shield. I used a clear blue over silver for a more metallic look. I gave him a canteen, but no knife or holster.

Sharon Carter! The Invisible Woman body and head work pretty good for Sharon. (Close enough for me as I have trouble with face and hair details). Say what you want about Hasbro articulation, but this figure made it easy for me to Apoxie sculpt her belt and bands. I wanted her in S.H.I.E.L.D. gear because what good is it to be Nick Fury director of SHIELD if you have no one to boss around?](userimages/customs/5000/4770-1.jpg) Sharon Carter - Agent 13 of S.H.I.E.L.D.

![[Quicksilver Green] I really wanted a green Quicksilver for my classic Avengers. I couldn't find one and I didn't want to pay a lot for it on E-bay, so I made my own! I took a regular blue Quicksilver and painted him with Tamiya Park Green. I used Tamiya Light Green for his boots, gloves and "underwear on the outside" for a more classic look.](userimages/customs/5000/4765-1.jpg) Quicksilver Green Marvel Legendsby bodymanI really wanted a green Quicksilver for my classic Avengers.

I present Ares, God of War! I had an X3 Juggernaut sitting around and I didn't know what to do with him. The figure is very buff and great for an Olympian God! I started out wanting to convert him into a comic book accurate figure. However, I just did not have the time or patience to do that, so I took many "artistic liberties" with him. Mostly that means I repainted him and did most of my work on his chest. His skull and cross swords is a sticker I made and glued on. I am (mostly) happy with the results and with a complete Mighty Avengers team!](userimages/customs/5000/4521-1.jpg) Ares (Mighty Avengers) Marvel Legendsby bodymanThis is the final (for now!) member of my Mighty Avengers team.

I still need to figure out the long hair, but for now, this will do for my Mighty Avengers set.](userimages/customs/5000/4519-1.jpg) Sentry Marvel Legendsby bodymanNothing spectacular here, just a quick repaint of a Sentry figure.

I patterned the Black Widow here from her appearances in the first few issues of "The Mighty Avengers". I like this version because it is very simple. I used a ML Wasp, took off her wings, changed her hairstyle and repainted her. My biggest challenge was painting the eyes. I need more practice or heads that I don't need to alter!](userimages/customs/4500/4371-1.jpg) Mighty Avengers Black Widow Marvel Legendsby bodymanI am working to complete my modern Avengers teams.

![[She Hulk Fantastic Four] I really loved the John Byrne run on the FF. So I had to have She Hulk in her FF uniform. I took the ML She-Hulk and dremeled down her costume. I then smoothed her out with apoxie sculpt with some minor "enhancements" and repainted her (Tamiya Color Park Green works great I think!).](userimages/customs/4000/3635-1.jpg) She Hulk Fantastic Four Marvel Legendsby bodymanI really loved the John Byrne run on the FF.

I have several others in progress, but Luke Cage here was easy and I finished it this weekend. I took a TNA Brother Devon and used Apoxie Sculpt to make his tank top into a T-shirt. I dremeled his wrist bands off and painted and sealed him. Now all I need is a Ronin and my New Avengers will be complete! Thanks to all and this web site for the how to's and inspiration to help me get back into customizing figures.
