![[Starlord (Movie Concept)] I completed this figure for a Secret Santa swap on another site. I didn't get a chance to take any good pics, so these were shot by the recipient. Fairly straight forward build. HOM Wolvie body w/ HOM Iron Man head dremmeled down and resculpted. Magneto cape, Fantomex pistols together with various other bits of fodder. I actually have some new figures coming soon. Stay tuned...

![[Adventure Kartel MEDIC ZOMB Acolyte] I just recently started collecting 3A toys Adventure Kartel stuff. Wow, are they cool. Anyway, I purchased the boiler suit before I realized that it was 6", not 12". Instantly upon receiving the suit in the mail, I thought " Oh yeah, ML style ZOMB." And here it is. The suit is fairly tight, so I used a ML Asgardian body so it would fit a little loose. Sanded all of the areas away that I didn't want. Attached lower arms and legs from ML FO Daredevil, the hands and boots work well IMO. To finish it off, I used a DCUC Deadman head. Wrapped all in an undead paint job with added distress to the suit. And here you have it ML style 3A MED ZOMB. I'm really happy with this guy, so happy that I've started to work on a few more 3a AK Legends styled characters.

But I did manage to piece this guy together and slap some paint on him. I used a Savage Dragon upper body and torso, with Bishop lower arms, AOA Sabes thighs, and Wolvie lower legs. Added sculpted detail with Aves, two magnetic alternate heads; series 6 & AOA Wolvie, took the removable cowl from HOML Daken and added metal claws using craft nails. I am really pleased with the short, stocky and pissed-off look that was achieved with the parts used. This was originally being done for a buyer who requested X-Men styled paint apps. However, the dude flaked out at the last minute. Oh well. So I like the look, but I thought that the yellow/brown or X-Force color scheme would have better suited the figure build. So I may have to do another in the future. With all that said, I present my first, but not last, Wolverine custom.

![[Red Hood BATMAN beyond Concept] This guy kinda started out as a BATMAN Beyond custom. However, when I got the head that is now on the figure, I thought that it looked too mean for that. And then I thought of RED HOOD and so on and so forth blah, blah, blah. So this is what I ended up with and I have to say I'm very pleased with the outcome. The head has a magnet for easy removal to take cape on and off. I took a little break from posting to hone my skills and to build my fodder collection. I would like to think I have accomplished both.
