This one has a long story behind it...I was commissioned by someone (I won't give his name or anything because his situation was understandable.) It was my first commission so at first I was a little dissappointed when he said he couldn't buy it. I bear no ill feelings towards him, and if he ever needed another custom made I'll be happy to do it.
Enough with that though, onto the stuff.
I started with the snow mission captain america and then added Ultimate Cap arms. The shield is from....another captain america...I forget which one. Repainted the whole thing and then its done. The shield has a magnet in the back as well as his arm and his back so they can stick to him.
Thanks for looking!

Interesting story behind this guy, I was going to make him the Apocalypse War Machine but I messed up and decided that he looked cool as the Blue Beetle.
Started with a regular movie Iron man and the filled in the Arc Reactor. Repainted the entire thing and sculpted spikes on his back. Looking at it now I can see some spots I missed with the paint, but I'll get over it.

I may have taken my artists idea of how he would look too far from the source material, but I don't think that the actual look of the character in the comics would do in the movie.

The body is from Iron Fist.
The lower legs are from a Movie Thor
The gloves are from a GI Joe
The head is a modified soldiers head. I sculpted the hair and emblem.
I really liked the look from the Young Justice show, but I prefer the shorter haired look. So I went with that.
After several layers of paint and having the emblem removed through mysterious means, he was finished, except for his nightsticks. I found some random pole and sawed it in half for Nightwing here.
Everyone has done an amazing job on their Nightwings (Movie style and Young Justice style) and I hope mine can come close to everyone else's!

It's been a while!
Well I took the summer off, got some work done, and finished up some projects and now, I'm back with a personal favorite of mine: Spiderman Noir of MARVEL: Noir and Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions.
The idea started with me staring at a head from a GI Joe that I found, just wondering if I should make Fantomex, or this guy. I chose this guy.
I started by swapping out First Appearance Captain America's head with the GI Joe and then sculpting the jacket-like vest as well as the goggles. I gave everything a solid black paintjob and then brushed every thing with a light brown, to make it look a little bit leathery. After that I detailed with white and then finally added the webbing. The webbing is actually a spring from a NERF gun that I bent.
Did I do good? let me know, I can take a few criticisms.

Hey guys, it's been a while!
Started with Ultimate Cap, gave it the repaint it needed and realized "Hey, this old man needs something more..." so I decided to try my hand at sculpting. I sculpted the "ear wings" and attached them. After that he still needed something more than that shield that the Ultimate came with, so I went for a swim in the fodder baggy. I found a pistol from someone and a captain america shield from the winter assault Cap I think is the name and fitted the straps to his arm. I was going to attach it with magnets, but something this small is difficult to do that with, and for those of you who can do that, you have my utmost respect. That's about it!
