![[White Queen (2)] I wasn't at all happy with the repaint and sculpt that I did of Emma from the Hasbro line, so I decided to suck it up and do a full custom White Queen. She is a Psylocke fully sculpted by hand, painted by hand, and then drybrushing of pear acylic overtop for natural shading, which works perfectly when the light hits her. The hair is from Spider Woman. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/9500/9139-1.jpg) White Queen (2) | ![[Cyclops] Here is my repaint of Cyclops. Hasbro once again did a great job with the sculpt, but didn't put much into the paint. He is a complete repaint with a mix of enamels and acrylics, and then flat coated to seal. I took the inspiration due to a lot of the issues showing his costume in two different colors, mostly due to the lighting effects in the panels. Because of this, I thought actually painting the costume two colors would give it that effect constantly. Also, changed the pale yellow to gold, since almost every issue makes the yellow appear as gold because of the shine and sheen qualities. As always, comments are very appreciated!](userimages/customs/8500/8178-1.jpg) Cyclops |
![[Siryn] Here is my custom of Siryn. Decided to start expanding the ole X-Force set, and figured another female would be nice. Instead of doing the traditional costume, I picked the later X-Force before they disbanded. She is sculpted, cape out of latex, full repaint by hand with acrylic and enamels. Hope you enjoy!](userimages/customs/8500/8098-1.jpg) Siryn | ![[Wasp] I hated the way Wasp looked, and wanted to give her a different feel. I pulled a costume from the 60's, did a full repaint, resculpted her hair, and painted her wings. All hand painted with enamels. Please let me know what you think!](userimages/customs/8500/8097-1.jpg) Wasp |
![[Yellow Jacket] Here is my full repaint of Yellow Jacket. I didn't care for the yellow, and the gold "variant" looked more like orange, so I decided to actually make a gold version of good ole Hank Pym. All enamels, gloss finish, hand painted. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8094-1.jpg) Yellow Jacket | ![[Black Knight] HEre is my full repaint of Black Knight. His armor is all enamel high gloss with a high gloss finish. I just thought this did him more justice than the lackluster paint job that Hasbro did. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8093-1.jpg) Black Knight |
![[Apocalypse] I loved the sculpt of the Apocalypse BAF, but just thought that the mix of flat black and blues, plus the dull color of the blue just didn't do the sculpt justice. I hand painted and detailed the entire BAF by hand, all in acrylics. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8086-1.jpg) Apocalypse | ![[Modular Armor Iron Man] Here is my full repaint of the Face Off Iron Man, Modular Armor. I know that the figure was pretty true to the comic book, but was actually closer to Marvel Vs. Capcom. I found quite a bit of artwork that shows Iron Man in an actual Red and Gold costume, and more metallic rather than the flat colors. So, I decided to do a full repaint of the figure in the metallic colors to give him a more accurate comic book feel. He is fully handpainted and sealed. Hope you like it!](userimages/customs/8500/8085-1.jpg) Modular Armor Iron Man |
![[Iceman] Loved the sculpt of Iceman, but as time goes on, the "frosting" effect just makes the figure look dirty. I decided to do a triple layer was approach, using a clear blue, a clear metallic sky blue, and an "clear ice blue" to get this effect. I also repainted his eyes white to make them pop more, and kept the belt in tact. All hand painted with acrylics. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8084-1.jpg) Iceman | ![[Cable] Here is my repaint of the ToyBiz release of Cable. I liked the sculpt, however, I thought that he looked a little too cartoony, so I decided to darken up the costume and accent it. Used flat acrylics for the blue, and enamle gold for the accents. This is all hand painted and sealed. Hope you guys like him!](userimages/customs/8500/8083-1.jpg) Cable |
![[Quicksilver] This was not a fun custom to do, especially for a repaint. Most repaints don't take me that long to finish, however, due to the lightning on Quicksilver's costume, detailing around it took a little time to finish. He is done in full enamles, with Dulcote Lacquer over top to kill the shine. Flesh was also repainted, as well as the hair. All done by hand. Hope you guys enjoy!](userimages/customs/8500/8082-1.jpg) Quicksilver | ![[Modern Armor Iron Man] I have to say it. The ToyBiz release of shell-head here was a great sculpt, but horrid paint, a rare miss for them. I took Iron Man, gave him a full metallic red repaint with gold, and took a few liberties with accents. He's a mixture of enamles, acrylics, and a good old fashioned high gloss clear coat sealer. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8081-1.jpg) Modern Armor Iron Man |
![[Sunspot] Hey all. Here is my custom Sunspot. I took a TNA wrestler, added the harness from AirStrike Wovlerine, sculpted the pads and pouches and took some from various fodder I had, and did a lot of paint work and highlights on him to give him a good sheen, much like his powers. All acrylic hand painted work. Tell me what you think.](userimages/customs/8500/8076-1.jpg) Sunspot | ![[Phoenix] Hey guys. This is my Phoenix custom that I did. Overall, I was pretty happy with the sculpt, and just thought the colors were flat, espeecially her gold. So, I did a full repaint on the costume using a mix of enamles and acrylics. Hope you like it!](userimages/customs/8500/8075-1.jpg) Phoenix |
![[Vulcan] Here is my custom of Vulcan. I used a TNA wrestler for the base, hand painted with acrylic, and the belt came from an X-Men Series Nightcrawler. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8074-1.jpg) Vulcan | ![[Magneto] Here is my full repaint of the Master of Magnetism. I realized that being flat odd colors wasn't that intimidating, so I decided to give him a more "armored" look than before. All painting was done by hand with acrylics.](userimages/customs/8500/8073-1.jpg) Magneto |
![[Hulk Buster Iron Man] Here is my full repaint of good ole Hulk Bustin Iron Man. I hated the plastic look of the colors on the figure, so I decided to do a nice red metallic using silver with a top coat of clear red. The gold is all enamles. Let me know what you think!](userimages/customs/8500/8071-1.jpg) Hulk Buster Iron Man | ![[Kitty Pride] Here is a full repaint I did of Kitty Pride to make her a little more comic book accurate. All the paint is done by hand, in acrylic. Let me know what you think!](userimages/customs/8500/8070-1.jpg) Kitty Pride |
![[Emma Frost] Here is my full repaint of Emma. I also modified the cape to look more comic book accurate, and also dremeled down here groin area to make it look more like a woman, rather than a granny panties type deal. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8068-1.jpg) Emma Frost | ![[Thor - Lord of Asgard] Here is my custom repaint of the Hasbro release of Thor, Lord of Asgard. Mix of enamles and acrylics. Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8066-1.jpg) Thor - Lord of Asgard |
![[Loki] Here is my repaint of Loki from the Toy Biz Line. I wanted to bring him a more metallic look, simliar to that of Lord Thor. All enamle on this baby, full repaint, even the horns which are actually nail polish; platinum in color. Full seal afterwards. He is all hand painted. Let me know what you think!](userimages/customs/8500/8015-1.jpg) Loki | ![[Pyro] Here is my Pyro repaint. I wanted to give him a little more of a comic feel, as well as adding some elements to him that I thought were missing. I decided to paint his harness, gloves, and boots all metallic red, similiar to the foil fire suits that firefighters have. Kept the yellow, and added orange from earlier comic book appearances. All hand painted with a mix of acrylic and enamles. Let me know what you think.](userimages/customs/8500/8014-1.jpg) Pyro |
![[Rogue] Here is my take on the new costume for Rogue to round out the modern era X-Men.
Base: Psylocke
Sculpted gloves, boots, and upper torso lines for the "coat" on the costume, as well as resculpting her hair.
Cape is from a ML Emma Frost
Paint is all enamles, hand painted.
Let me know what you think, and thanks for looking!](userimages/customs/8500/8013-1.jpg) Rogue | ![[First Appearance Iron Man] Here is my repaint of the First Appearance Iron Man from the Toy Biz line. Everytime you see one of these, it is either all silver, or all gold, but what about Tony's transition inbetween the two costumes? This is my take on how the evolution would have happened. He is totally hand painted with a mixture of enamles and acrylics. Thanks for looking!](userimages/customs/8500/8012-1.jpg) First Appearance Iron Man |
![[Marvel Girl] Here is the repaint I did of the Marvel Girl figure from the Hasbro 2 Pack with Cable. I wanted to make her a little more comic accurate, as Jean is my favorite character from the Marvel Universe. I felt her skin was too pale, the dress was too drab, and the fake gold color was just horrid. She did take a bit, because I detailed around her eyes and in a lot of very small spots, all by hand. Tell me what you think!](userimages/customs/8500/8011-1.jpg) Marvel Girl | ![[Cable] Hey all! This is my full repaint of the Cable figure from the Hasbro 2 pack with Marvel Girl (who I also did a full repaint on). I added a belt from Longshot, and hand painted the entire figure, including all of the silver lines you see, freehand. Let me know what you think!](userimages/customs/8500/8010-1.jpg) Cable |
![[Banshee] Hey all! Really didn't care for the Hasbro offering for Banshee, so I decided to do a full repaint and a little re-tooling to get the Banshee you see here.
Base: HML Banshee S1
Collar: from a Longshot figure
Paint: Mix of acrylic and enamles, all painted by hand.
Hope you like!](userimages/customs/8500/8007-1.jpg) Banshee | ![[Sersi] I noticed that some of the less known Avengers really don't get much custom love, so I decided to do my version of Sersi from the mid-90's Avengers, just pre-Fatal Attractions storyline. Since she is about to make a pretty good comeback, figured getting her on the Realm would be a good idea.
Base: Ann O'Brien
Sculpted boots, dremeled down her tennis shoes, sculpted over laces, etc.
Full repaint, including flesh, all hand painted acrylic.
Hope you like! Comments are very much appreciated!](userimages/customs/8500/8005-1.jpg) Sersi |

Base: Elektra
Costume: TONS of Sculpting, rubber bands, nail heads and ties from ML packages.
Cape: Cloak from a LOTR Legolas Figure
Paint: All hand painted with acrylics.
Hope you like her!](userimages/customs/8500/8002-1.jpg) Polaris - "Reload" | ![[Jean Grey] Here is my rendition of Jean Grey from Jim Lee's run on X-Men. She is a Psylocke base figure with a lot of sculpting.
Base: Psylocke
Hair: Mix of pre-existing with some sculpting
Shoulder Pads: Mister Sinister
All others parts: Sculpted By Hand
