![[Turtle-Pool] I took a marvel Legends zombie figure for the base and connected the legs from a mattel wwe figure and the arms from a jakks figure, sculpted the head and the front and back shell and took accessories from a GI joe figure to put on the arms and the piece on the back of the shell. Took the guns from the dollar tree special forces guys and then repainted him because I didn't care for him as the red turtle pool, so X Force alternate is the way to go. Hope you like it.More to come.](userimages/customs/51000/50694-1.jpg) Turtle-Pool | ![[Earthworm Jim V2] I took the original Earthworm Jim that I had, and did a refresh, just repainted him and made an alternate head out of some Milliput and that's a wrap!

![[Rising Sun Donatello] I had some fodder pieces lying around and got to work, I pulled up a comic stock photo of Rising Sun Don and went to work. I threw my own spin on it, and made some alternate heads. It's been on my work table for a while because all of the accessories really make this a stand out piece. I saw that someone had done the Mikey and Clunk from the comics and I took that Idea and made an alternate head with the removable beanie, and no pupils. I even sculpted a mini nes tmnt game cartridge for him to have as a throwing star. So many great items that go with this figure, I can't say enough about it, lots of pics on the ebay post of it, so check it out if you have time. Enjoy.](userimages/customs/50500/50314-1.jpg) Rising Sun Donatello | ![[Leatherhead] I took a bunch of fodder pieces and had this Sabertooth figure that I was trying to figure out what to do with. I was playing Turtles in time on my hacked wii, when It came to me to do this with the figure. I had those large arms that belonged to some figure that I got off of the target clearance. Thought the pieces were cool. Got to sculpting, used wire mesh and heavy sculpting, painted 7 coats and sculpted the tail over the wire mesh. Hope you like it.This thing just towers over the Neca Turtles!](userimages/customs/50500/50250-1.jpg) Leatherhead |
![[Tmnt] So here's the scoop, I wanted to do a more gritty, raw version of the Turtles. Got inspired by the original artwork on the back of the NECA Turtles packaging. In my mind, I saw the Turtles from the cover of the NES Turtles game. I combined the two in my mind, sculpted the heads from the new Nickolodeon series, gave them bigger more buffed out bodies and repainted them to look more like how I've always imagined. I just imagined Sin City meets TMNT and here's what I came up with. Enjoy.](userimages/customs/49500/49455-1.jpg) Tmnt | ![[The Shredder] This is a Shredder figure that I made of several different pieces. The head was sculpted and the rest of it came over time. Through trial and error with different parts, I came out with a version of Shredder that shows the comic style mixed in with the newer color scheme of a more modern Shredder. Hope you like it.](userimages/customs/49500/49453-1.jpg) The Shredder |
![[The Black Panther] I picked up a figure at a swap meet that had awesome articulation, but the thing was broken, I also picked up a Gi Joe figure on the same day. I fixed the broken figure and took apart the GI joe character, painted the whole thing black because it was originally supposed to be a Batman, but I changed my mind because it looked so much like the Black Panther that I watched on the BET cartoon. I love those episodes that came out on BET. Just got done watching them online. Who is your favorite Superhero that my be under exposed or may just be getting his or her own show? I wish they would have continued that series, because those episodes are awesome!](userimages/customs/48500/48246-1.jpg) The Black Panther Marvelby LuvNidlenessI picked up a figure at a swap meet that had awesome articulation, but the thing was broken, I also picked up a Gi Joe figure on the same day.

Looked at it, and I was looking at the Keldor Figure from MOTU and thought, wow, he looks a lot like the Undertaker. I got to painting the thing. Sculpted the details and I remembered back to when I was little and my mom would leave me in the car to run into Payless really quick to get some shoes and I would play with my He-Man and Skeletor. He had a ram skull staff. I hope I did him justice.](userimages/customs/48500/48245-1.jpg) Keldor/ Skeletor |

He was one of the first characters that I had the pleasure of dressing up as for Halloween as a kid. It was around the time the Michael Keaton version was out and the had the replica masks. I was lucky enough to have one of those cowls, complete with the yellow chest symbol connected to it. My head was so small at the time that it fit in the mask with lots of room for me to grow into it. I wore a all black sweatsuit with it, and had no muscles at the time. Lol, now I resemble a real life superhero. I just took the original Batman that I had made earlier, gave it a new head and sculpted a new utility belt, gave him a repaint and it's a done deal. Kinda looks like Bale in the face. My question is who was the first hero that you dressed up as when you were a youngster?

![[Metalhead] I saw a Metalhead in the store and it brought me back to the day's of the original Metalhead figure. I had to have it. First, I added articulation to the arm sockets at the shoulders and then I went all out with alternate arms, added a wire to the top of the head and mods with the buzzsaw and the wiring on the stomach and other armor plates from a gears of war figure. Repainted the whole thing and he's a one and done. What would happen if this version of Metalhead went against the Turtles like in the video games on Nes and SNES?](userimages/customs/45500/45260-1.jpg) Metalhead | ![[Earthworm Jim] I'm the owner of a new gaming console that is coming out in 2013. I had this conversation with my brother about why gaming systems do great, or fail. He said that every gaming system that does well, usually has a stand alone character that carries their brand. I asked him, well what about Playstation? Who is their stand alone.All of their great characters are from other brands,and not Sony. I like the Earthworm Jim games. Hopefully they will make a new one. Who can guess what parts I used to make this? I sure cant. I just didn't like the arms on the original figure, so changed those out, and modded the legs, sculpted the head and the gun and here he is folks!](userimages/customs/45500/45221-1.jpg) Earthworm Jim Earthworm Jimby LuvNidlenessI'm the owner of a new gaming console that is coming out in 2013.

![[Early Sketch Inspiration Turtles] I was looking at old Eastman and Laird Sketches, when I began making these particular turtles. I saw the Marvel Turtles that they had sketched, and I wanted to bring them to life. At the time, I had already created the Deadpool Turtle for a friend, so I wanted to do more in the line. Enter Thor, America and Wolverine. I really like Hawkeye, so that was the turtle to complete this set. I also included the sketch from my inspiration.

Thought that the simplicity of it would do him justice. The Shredder is a jakks figure with the Legs from some figure I found on clearance and thought it would be a great idea to take apart. The spear is from this tea place that I go to, I take their chopsticks all the time to make weapons out of, and the whole thing has been painted in acrylic paints. The idea here was to get a more gritty comic style of the Shredder, This one was darker and more Frank Miller inspired. I was watching Sin City when I did this figure, thinking that it would be great to do some contrast with gray white black and silver. It worked out pretty well and was appealing with the end result. The spikes were added with Epoxy. I didn't do any for the shoulders because I wanted to preserve the articulation of the figure. Enjoy.](userimages/customs/41500/41384-1.jpg) Shredder and Krang |
