![[Julio Valiente] The high-flying, gun-slinging, sword-fighting Pinoy hero, Julio Valiente from the movie 'San Basilio' is now an action figure. Honestly, I have no idea about his story since I don't have a copy of the film. All I know is that he was portrayed by da great Lito Lapid who is now a senator here in the Philippines. I started this custom a few months ago but I had to stop customizing for a while due to school work, but thankfully, I managed to finish it in between classes.
Recipe:
I just picked up a Madman and sculpted all the details in his clothing. the gun and holster came from a union jack figure. the bullets on his belt are from black widow. the blades were made from scratch. the mask and salakot(headwear) were sculpted.

Samurai Jack is still one of my favorite cartoon shows so I decided to make a custom figure of Jack. I know it's kinda hard to see him out of his 2D features but I wanted him to be able to share the realistic look with my other figures.
I had a SOTA Ryu lying around for a while, not knowing what to do with him for months, then it hit me. Why not a Samurai Jack custom? So first, I made the gi(handsewn- which took me hours...) to see if it feels right. It didn't but I continued with sanding the original hair/headband and sculpted the topknot hair. Now, we're getting somewhere. Luckily I still had Roronoa Zoro's swords that included an unsheathed sword and a sheathed one so that solved the unopening fists of the SOTA figures so I glued the unsheathed sword on his right fist and the sheathed one is there if he's not using the sword[see pics]. The sandals were made out of a popsicle stick that was conveniently the right size for Ryu's](userimages/customs/40000/39508-1.jpg) Samurai Jack Samuraiby Roandes"At long last, my quest has come to an end."

![[Wesley Gibson(the Killer Outfit)] After creating a movie-inspired version of Wesley Gibson, I opted to make one sporting The Killer Outfit seen in the comics and the video game.
RECIPE:
Head, Neck and Hands: Union Jack
Body: Spiderman New Goblin
The straps and holsters were made of leatherette except the one on his chest, it came from a Punisher figure. The pouches are from Union Jack, ML Deadpool and LCBH and Ann O Brien. The mask/helmet details were sculpted. The alternate movie James McAvoy head was from a Ghost Rider Blackheart.

RECIPE:
Head: Blackheart
Torso, Thighs: Moonknight
Legs: Movie Punisher
Shoulders/Arms: Blackheart
I started by sculpting the shirt and jacket over moonknight's body then attached the knee down from punisher. The head swap was a little tiring because my moonknight's neck was broken so I had to use blackheart's neck as well, a little sanding and I finally got the proportions right. The hair was sculpted. I then attached the arms and painted the whole thing. After finishing the paint, I decided to make him more faithful to the film so I added the dirt in his shirt and the bruises on his hands/face and there you have it. Hope you like him :D](userimages/customs/39000/38793-1.jpg) Wesley Gibson Wantedby RoandesI've always wanted to make this, but was undecided for the head choice.

![[Ang Panday] So here's my take on a Filipino comic book/movie hero, Flavio(Ang Panday). I followed the original color scheme but wanted to express my own design so here's the result. I repainted Wonder Man's skin to match a Pinoy's complexion. I sculpted the shirt and placed round head fasteners as buttons. The collar was from Undertaker's trench coat(I think). The belt was made out of leatherette. The sword comes with two interchangeable blades(short dagger/long sword) from Blade's sword and a ring wraith's sword. The hilt was made out of bendy wires and the metal part of a folder fastener. Thanks for viewing/reading. :D](userimages/customs/38500/38440-1.jpg) Ang Panday Marvel Legendsby RoandesSo here's my take on a Filipino comic book/movie hero, Flavio(Ang Panday).

I contemplated for a while and thought of the web-slinger. I sanded the joints to avoid paint rub. the spider emblem and the webbings on the costume were drawn using a unipin pen. The head was from an old spiderman classics black costume spidey. The eyes are actually an accessory for garments that look like a round-head fastener. I actually like the concept of the web shooters so I included them in my design. I used a folder fastener for the arm band part and the thingy on the end of a guitar string for the round part. After all that, i coated it with acrylic emulsion for a better finish.

![[Hawke] Ok, I've been planning to do customs of my favorite video games and the Dragon Age Series is one of them. I really liked how Hawke from Dragon Age II looked like so I decided to make one. It took me a while to think of a base figure and one time I went to a toy con and spotted this Punisher figure at a low price and bought for whatever reasons. I was looking at his face and I said to myself, ok I'll turn you in to Hawke! I took The Darkness' right arm and legs and sculpted the rest of the armor. Some parts of the armor were made from other cheap toys I bought as a child. Some parts were made out of the black plastic cover of DVDs and sculpted over them. The belt was made from leatherette and the pouch was from ML Deadpool. The fur was made out of an old towel. The hair and beard was sculpted. The stave was made out of a part of an old toy and a takoyaki toothpick glued together. The flame was from Iron Fist. Then, paint. That's pretty much how I made this. =D](userimages/customs/34000/33661-1.jpg) Hawke Miscby RoandesOk, I've been planning to do customs of my favorite video games and the Dragon Age Series is one of them.
