| Current Projects: | Masters of Evil members, X-team members... | | Honorable Mentions: | I had a request from a guy who wanted me to make customs of his original comic book characters, to be presented at SDCC. In the end, though, it didn't work out, as we couldn't work out a mutually-beneficial compensation... | | Comments: | Customizing...Now that takes me back! I remember 'customizing' my Star Wars figures back in the seventies. I think my first one was a Ben Kenobi head glued onto a Darth Vader body. Then I threw on another cape, and made a helmet from a chapstick (?) cap covered with masking tape. I can't remember if he was good or evil :) A couple years later, I got the 12 inch Barbie-sized Star Wars figures, Luke,Han,Chewie,Vader,etc. I made a Jawa out of a shin-less, forearm-less, original GI Joe (the ones with the fuzzy hair)! I fashioned the costume out of a brown sock. I wish I'd've taken photos... I took a looooong break, then started again with the X-Men figures of the nineties. My first was a Colossus made from a Gladiator. Made a boatload of figures, then gave up cold turkey when I moved to Asia. Then in 2004, I bought a Marvel Legends S.C. Iron Man. It was practically begging me to turn it into War Machine! And, I was back... |
