![[Ghost Rider (Danny Ketch)] A repaint from the Superhero Showdown figure with MU Ghost Rider's head.
Not 100% comic-accurate due to kneepads, elbow-pads and additional stripes but the details of the original figure were so fine (love all the spikes !)

One day, looking at the Wrecker figure my wife gave me as a gift for father's day, I've been thinking it might be a good base for a DKR custom. Searching the realm, I found out it had been done at least one time but, hey, I had to to try to get mine anyway...
Sand off the torso and belly, modified gloves with added spikes, modified the head and the boots, sculpted the utility belt and the cape (thin plastic base and papier maché). Lots of painting and repainting to get things right (or almost).

![[Moon Knight] Moon Knight is far from being my favorite character, yet I had a lot of fun doing this custom. I started with a Future Foundation Spider-Man, borrowed the cape and the belt from MU Moon Knight, repainted and sculpted wrists, lower legs and the hood (first, I tried to sculpt it as a separated piece but it didn't work, so I sculpted it on Spidey's head).
Then, I made a few weapons for him : crescents, truncheon, nunchaku and staff.
As there were too many things to hold in one hand, I gave him a holding right hand borrowed from a Starlord figure. The surgery got complicated and I had to use a magna-joint to repair the broken one. So I recycled the fist from FF Spidey and gave it spiked knuckles, swappable with magna-joint.
Now, he's ready for the Vengeance !](userimages/customs/49500/49406-1.jpg) Moon Knight Marvel Universeby daredeviantMoon Knight is far from being my favorite character, yet I had a lot of fun doing this custom.

![[Punisher Classic Look] The grey wash on the white parts of the original figure didn't quite work, so I repainted them in plain white and while at it, redid the skull chest emblem to get a more classic look. The pistols that came in the package were small, I replaced them with a pair of Colts .45, ditched the knife at the leg because... I felt like it (the blade was curving following the figure's leg).

I wanted to try a simple repaint with a brighter red to match the look from the comic-book in the eigthies.
Also swapped the red billy club with a custom white one.
EDIT : the handle I built for the billy club was too rigid and broke up. I re-attached a new one, more flexible, allowing DD to play with it around his finger, in a pose inspired by a shot done by Mazzucchelli for the Marvel Handbook.](userimages/customs/49000/48649-1.jpg) Daredevil Red Repaint Marvel Universeby daredeviantThe greatest battle pack DD was my first MU figure, it brought me into collecting the line.

![[Punisher MAX] The 2012 MU Punisher gave us a satisfying 616-Punisher, yet there's no figure of the MAX version. As it is my favorite take on the char, I tried to do a MAX MU custom.

Arms and legs : MU Ghost Rider (first time cracking a figure to get the arms)

![[Weapon X from Aoa] This Wolverine from the Silver Samurai Greatest Battle 2-Pack was just screaming to be transformed into a AoA Weapon-X. This has been done before but I wanted to have my try on it.
So I dug in my collection and re-read the Weapon X AoA comics (lovely art by Adam Kubert) to be as accurate as I could.
Painted right glove, sculpted left forearm, sculpted hair, some red stripes, painted belt et voilà...
The belt's color was a dilemma as it's red on the first issue cover and in several pinups but yellow in most of the interior art...
As many customs have already been withe a red belt, I went with the yellow (a color that is still a pain for me to work out).](userimages/customs/47000/46993-1.jpg) Weapon X from Aoa Marvel Universeby daredeviantThis Wolverine from the Silver Samurai Greatest Battle 2-Pack was just screaming to be transformed into a AoA Weapon-X.

I've a used a Flash figure from the series of gift toys released in the early 2ks by the fast food chain Quick, in France.
Those figures were using the DC animated design with articulations on arms and legs, hence they're a bit more poseable than classic DCU animated figures.
I saw off the headwings and reused them for the horns.
Chest-logo, gloves, belt, billy club and holster in FIMO paste.
Some red repaints, too.
Note that the billy club is white with the 80s-90s design, cause I like it better than the red jump rope used since Volume 2 reboot.](userimages/customs/26500/26408-1.jpg) Daredevil Animated Style Marvelby daredeviantMy first custom !
