![[Maestro] Haven't had much time to work on my customs for months now. This was the last one I completed way back in May. I don't know whats taking Hasbro so long to give us a Maestro figure (they've given us just about every other Hulk figure). I decided I wasn't waiting any longer. Introducing, Marvel Universe Maestro! The base was made using fodder except the Dr Doom mask, I had to scuplt that one. I'm really happy with the way he turned out and have decided to keep him for my collection. I might make another one in the future to sell. but it won't be anytime soon, so here's the recipe for those that want one of their own. Oh, a word on the beard. I have never liked the Santa Claus-like beard he was given in the comics, just didn't fit the character I thought. I wanted a more fearsome look, so I gave him a outlaw biker type of beard. Oh and on Juggernauts helmet,I boiled it then pressed Hulks fist into it for the battle damage. Any questions are welcomed.

Sure, she could level a building with her bare hands, but she wouldn't dare with freshly manicured nails. Hence the heavy weapons, two M32 40mm grenade launcher, AWWWW YEAH!!! This was one was kind of a pain, I wanted to get the right proportions for what I think She-Hulk should look like. Thanks for looking.

![[Snake Eyes] Its been a while since i've had a chance to work on my customs, but I still check this site and visit the forums as frequently as I can. It was one of these visits that got me to throw something together. Fellow Realmer, Future_Trunks posted(about two weeks ago) a Snake Eyes. I thought it was outstanding, with just a few tweaks he made, what I consider to be, the best representation of Snake Eyes i've seen in the 1:18 scale. Inspired by his custom, I decided to make my own Snake Eyes...
We've all seen Snake Eyes in full tactical gear ready to kick some Cobra tail, but what if he just want to go down to his local StarBucks for a Vente Iced Caramel Macchiato. Sure, he would still be armed, but he wouldn't be walking down the block in full battle rattle. So I came up with this, thanks for looking.

It would be awesome, right!? Can you imagine the carnage the god of thunder would unleash. Disintergrating entire marauding gangs with bolts of lighting, mjiolnir covered in blood from hundreds of bludgeoned skulls, thor tearing villians apart with his bare hands, awesome, awesome, a hundred times, awesome!!!...(Deep breath)...Well, that was my inspiration for this figure and I had a great time making him.

![[Leonardo: the Last Turtle] No Leo didn't murder his brothers. I didn't come up with a story for him only an idea. Big final battle between the Turtles and Shredder, lots of Foot ninjas dead, Leo sees his brothers struck down one, defeats Shredder, gives his brothers a proper funeral, keeps masks in remeberence. Take a moment if needed..........ok, lets continue. This is going into my collection and will be the only Turtle I keep, which is why he is the last turtle. The Mikey I posted is a gift for my brother. Hope you guys like.

I took it as a sign from the customizing Gods,"GO FORTH AND CREATE MY SON" they told me, at least I hope it was the Gods and not just some random voice in my head. Anyways, here you go, enjoy.

![[Iceman: a Real American Hero] NO.4 in my Marvel Military line, Iceman. "Rangers Lead The Way", I think Bobby would fit well as an 11B Army Ranger. He's proved his worth numerous times as an X-Man, both as a soldier and (to a limited degree) as a leader. Also because he is an X-Man and the X-Men usually have the best tech, I've decide to outfit him with a Rail gun that attaches to his harness via magnet (like Master Chief). Last, but not least is the ice powers, giant ice fist and ice blast.

I thought to myself, superheroes might not be the only ones who would want to serve their country, and Military Shocker was born. Shocker's skill set is an interesting one. He can produce destructive shockwaves with his wristbands which he created himself. So, in addition to being a one man wrecking ball, he's also pretty handy with a wrench, making him a perfect fit as a Combat Engineer, maybe even a Sapper.

![[Spider-Man: a Real American Hero] NO.2 in my very own Marvel Military line, Spider-Man. I figured he would be an SF soldier, most likely 1st SFOD-D(Delta Force). His abilities make him the perfect soldier to engage in counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency operations, Delta Force's primary mission. I'm really enjoying working on these military themed customs, so keep an eye out for more in my Marvel Military line, thanks.

It's a gi joe duke (don't know what line pre-roc) that was given to me by my nephew because he knows I make custom afs and he had broken the arms off :)
Big captain america fan, got all the figures, but I wanted one of him as what he truly is, a soldier! I only have a few customs figures under my belt, but as soon as I finished my soldier captain america, he became my favorite. He's outfitted real equipment every soldier carries: lbv, molle pack, m4 w/acog scope and m203 attachment. And the one thing I wish every one of my battle buddies had with them down range, vibranium shield. Enjoy!

![[Grifter] Grifter was always a favorite of mine, but I never really liked his WildCATS outfit with the trench coat. The back to basics military look Travis Charest brought to Grifter was much more intersting, more realistic. So, that's what I based my version of Grifter on. The red sword and sheath on his back is a reference to his Coda training giving to him by his lady, Zealot. Hope you like it!! And like I said, Grifter is one of my favorite characters, so much so that I've started on a ML Grifter which will be done soon, I hope.
