![[Origins Wolverine] Took a little over a year off to complete my MFA, and promptly started this for d2eux based on his specs. A lot more went into completing this than originally thought, but he is happy and so am I. Still have some very minor clean up and sealing to do, but after that, he's on his way home.
Progression:
- Removed stock bare arms & replaced with Origins movie figure arms (for jacket). Had to grind, boil and pop the new ones in there since the Origins figure had some funky 'action feature', giving him huge joint pegs.
- Clipped the wrist pegs and replaced them with metal bars, sculpted into place.
- Did the same for a new pair of hands with finger articulation - for holding items.
- Added magnets to the inside of the forearms, exactly at the end of the hole for the pegs.
- Sculpted over his wife-beater to more accurately represent his movie shirt layering.
- Added the collar to the newly sculpted shirt.
- Clipped the Origins figure's jacket (it was too short) and added length by meld](userimages/customs/32500/32187-1.jpg) Origins Wolverine Marvel Selectby mister garbageTook a little over a year off to complete my MFA, and promptly started this for d2eux based on his specs.

I wanted a Modern-ish War Machine - all battle damaged and torn up like he gets in the comics (or GOT in the comics, before he got canceled). I kinda liked the more-machine-than-man look, especially the face, so I mixed together the T-700 and Al Simmons head with a little sculpt for the ripped up helmet. Lots of dremmeling bullet holes and such all over as well.

![[Winter Soldier] This project has taken a LONG time to put together. Originally, this custom should have been completed nearly 5 months ago, but I could never find the right arms to attach to what I thought was the perfect base. Winter Soldier consists of:
- ML Luke Cage - Torso/Legs/Feet
- ML Mr. Sinister - Arms/Hands
- DCUC Green Lantern Head
I chopped parts of Cage's shirt off to smooth out his chest a bit and ground his boots down to meet flush with his legs. GL's mask was trimmed off of his nose to closer resemble Winter Soldier's. His chest was sculpted over with Aves to give him that padded-vest look. Sinister's arms were attached after it finally occurred to me that they were the perfect choice. His right arm was sanded down to remove the ribbing and slapped on.

In hulk: raging thunder it was revealed that in her post-apocalyptic world, in which women and men are at constant war, thundra was being sent back to our era to collect genetic material to forge a more perfect warrior. She got her hands –er, tongue—on the hulk's dna and the result of that mingling was lyra, who has the power of her parents combined with extensive military training—a formidable opponent, to say the least. I resculpted anne's head a bit to make her look younger (and make that frigg'n nose less unsightly). Sanded down the arms to make them smoother and did a lot of grinding down on the shoulder and back to make her shirt work the way it should. Shoes were dremmelled as well to smooth them out.

![[Mrg] MrG is a character I created several years ago while I was bored and drawing thru a lecture in college. He is a anthromorphic characature of myself. He really has no huge back-story... MrG is of an unknown amphibious-looking race. He is an expert thief and skilled in a vast number of weapons. He can communicate with animals telepathically, but tends to argue with them more often than actually getting their aid. He is an adept fighter, but lacks any traditional training or style, with most of his hits and movements coming from some sort of instinct... maybe fight or flight. Generally, MrG will avoid conflict but if provoked or cornered tends to respond with vicious violence.
Recipe:
Head - LotR Frodo head filled w/milliput.
- - 'Frill' in front - LCBH Super Patriot's ponytail
- - Ears are wings from a Star Wars Watto fig
Body/Crotch - X-23 (evened out her budding chest with milliput)
Legs - Hip to Knee is from X-23. Knees down from box set Nightcrawler
Arms - Box set Nightcrawler

![[Ash (comic version)] I had NECA's Ash in package since it came out, and since I've been trading off a lot of my non-articulated figures lately, but I really liked this Ash, I thought why not make it a custom? I love the versions of Ash that appear in the AoD comics, with Ash being really muscular and more hardened from fighting through time - so I went for a mix of the comic stylings.
I decided to see how far I could push myself with this thing. Instead of finding a base figure with abdominal articulation, I decided to cut apart the NECA AoD Ash and add my own. Merged Ash with a SMC Sandman figure using a lot of dremelling, drilling, and a metal pin. From the abs down is all Sandman with a bit of Milliput to fill the shirt area in. Sandman's pants were pitted pretty badly (okay for Sandman I guess...) so I did a wash with watered down Milliput a couple times to fill them in a lot. I left a little of them showing to serve as grit and grime from Ash's adventures
His arms needed to be pretty muscular, and N](userimages/customs/14000/13707-1.jpg) Ash (comic version) | ![[Hulk] Just a repaint. God that figure was godawful.
