![[Superboy (New 52)] Here is Superboy in his initial outfit from the New 52 series, used Shadowhawk as the base sculpted the S symbol, used a Hasbro Human Torch head with some sculpt on the hair.

Pretty easy for the most part.](userimages/customs/42500/42080-1.jpg) Superboy (New 52) | ![[Red Robin (New 52)] Okay finished this a looooooonnngg while, just now getting it posted. Used Bullseye as the body base with some re-sculpting and painting, Batman Beyond unmasked head repainted, and some finishing touches and there ya go. The wings are made from ref foam paper and painted as is the cape, I am considering making another cape out vinyl, we'll see. They are held in place by the back pack in which I used magnets to keep it in place and hold the wings/ cape on. I gotta I say I like this costume much better than the cowled one and looks more like he took ownership of the title. The Bo staff is a cut aluminum rod.](userimages/customs/42500/42079-1.jpg) Red Robin (New 52) Marvel Legendsby Mini-meRulesOkay finished this a looooooonnngg while, just now getting it posted.

It is heavily influenced by Nightwing's costume with his own added touches to defend himself against the various threats he faced when in the unternet.

![[Days of Future past, Death of Wolverine] For those who know Days of Future Past was a great storyline that ran in the Uncanny X-men in the 80's. For those who don't, the brief summary is that Sentinels have taken over the world, imprisoning not just mutants but humans has well. Wolverine a small band of mutants are still free and roaming as resistance fighters. On one incursion into a Sentinel mutant detainment camp wolverine engages in battle with a Sentinel and loses his life. I remember this story fondly, it was such an awesome read. So when I saw this contest I immediately knew what figure I would make. I added the claws from my fodder bin, replaced the deadite feet with some fodder GIjoe boots, and proceeded to repaint the figure. I painted the base chrome silver and then went over sections with tamiya red, then another layer of dark flesh tone over..... you get the picture, many layers of different colors. The final layer was a wash of clear smoke over the entire figure to really give him that charred extra crispy look.](userimages/customs/29500/29191-1.jpg) Days of Future past, Death of Wolverine X-Menby Mini-meRulesFor those who know Days of Future Past was a great storyline that ran in the Uncanny X-men in the 80's.

I had originally attached the galvatron head to the figure body but after looking at form different perspectives I felt it was too small and not quite menacing enough. I Modded the original figurehead to give him Galvatron's crown. Full repaint, added a tab on the back to better match Galvatron's appearance.

As a young child she was separated from her parents by her country's then despot ruler. Living with gypsies, she studied anything she could, books ranging in subject matter from physics to sorcery. It was during her teen years that she was discovered by a professor traveling through Europe. While at Columbia University, she met another student with an equally brilliant mind named Rita Richards. Although Rita and her friend Benjamina tried to befriend Victoria, she spurned there attempts, thinking that they would attempt steal her research and make it there own. These suspicions were proven true(in her own mind) when she discovered Rita looking over some of her notes. Outraged she chased Rita out her lab, who all the while was trying to tell Victoria that her calculations were in error could prove fatal.](userimages/customs/25500/25243-1.jpg) Dr. Doom(Lady Doom) Marvel Legendsby Mini-meRulesVictoria Von Doom would have been a child prodigy in Latveria, however being from such a poor and underdeveloped country she was not able to harness h...0 comments |
![[The Guyver] One of my favorite anime characters of all time, I give you the Guyver! I was definitely inspired by Sabretooth's Guyver custom, which if you have not seen yet, is 3 3/4 inches of pure awesomeness! As well as the fact that the actual figure costs close to $300, it was pretty good motivation to make one. I used an Edge deluxe figure from Mattel as the base. Lots of sculpting, I do mean lots of sculpting involved in this project. Used superfine milliput to form most of the armor, and aves for the smaller details. For the control metal, head orbs, and gravity orb I used steel bearings. The head is a fully original sculpt. I placed magnets in arms, blades and chest plates so that I could move/ remove the parts for different poses. The high frequency blades were made from some weapon fodder, and the open chest cavity was just some silicone painted with clear blue. After all the sculpting was done, I painted it up and sealed it! I did not sand most of the armor because I liked the rough, org](userimages/customs/25000/24540-1.jpg) The Guyver Guyverby Mini-meRulesOne of my favorite anime characters of all time, I give you the Guyver!
