Starting my next group run and decided to go with the Zodiac. I had the pincers from a TNMT Cockroach Terminator and worked them onto Living Laser. Green Stuff for the head and re-worked the pincers...[See More]

Simpler custom, trimmed the shoulder pads and lost the belt and repainted. I considered adding a little sculpt for the headband but felt it come have messed up the hairline more than I wanted. In the...[See More]

My first Hellion member and was very hesitant for the colors, but they worked really well. For those interested, it was Citadel Pink Horror and Screamer Pink. Scuplted the collar and boots and...[See More]

I had this recipe in mind since the Toybiz versions. After I used the Longshot head for Animal Lad, I decided it was time. I was nearly finished when I remembered the Hank Pym-West Coast version for...[See More]

Another Ani-man, one of the few (2?) female members. I used a technique I've read about when I made the ears. I have a molding wire (x2) in her head and sculpted over them. It is my understanding the...[See More]

I really, really like that Controller base. So many options. I had 2 extra Thing heads and the fit fairly well to the neck post...with a little persuasion. Green Stuff to smooth out some of the head....[See More]

Finishing up this run for the Legion of Substitute Heroes is Animal Lad. Apparently NOT a sidekick to Animal Man. I gave Longshot a haircut. I removed the collar and glove cuffs for Tom and sculpted...[See More]

Another skeleton base with a similar plan with a few tweaks. Sculpt for the skull to build up the sides and then craft foam for the shoulder pads. My friend had the great idea to paint the back of...[See More]

This one came about from a friend who made the suggestion to try. With so few options to use a 6-armed Spider-man I had to give him a try. Sculpted over the torso and costume arms for detail and...[See More]

This is actually my second Infectious Lass. This time used a Siryn for the base/ I used the horn tips from Loki for the antennae and craft foam for the back/arm detail. Animal Lad will finish up this...[See More]

I went with Wolfsbane just for the fur detail but I liked the older Wolfsbane head better for her. The ponytail is from Loki....[See More]

When my wife saw how Giraffe-man was coming along, she commented "He's cute." I corrected her. Giraffe-man is not cute, he is to be feared. Unless you're really short, then you should be fine....[See More]

This would be such an easy one for Hasbro to make. Shaved off the beard and moustache and add the few patches of hair....[See More]

Next from the Legion of Substitute Heroes is Polar Boy. Green Stuff for the fur trim and re-painted....[See More]

And rounding this group of having a ball is 8-ball. Orb head, Morbius body. Easy enough re-paint (hey, it ain't orange at least.) The pool cue is a bamboo skewer....[See More]

Continuing with my having a ball, Oddball is all Loki. The balls are sculpt. I considered using googly eyes but they were a little too big for my taste. Lots of coats of orange and then the rest of...[See More]

No issues with paint rub here!! Sculpted the hair and used a toothpick for the star and owl details. The earrings are just bits of yellow painters tape. Polar Boy will be next and then Infectious...[See More]

One of those characters I was not aware of but had a request for her. Sculpted the cowl a bit and the cape front. Rubber bands and sculpt for the glove details and the more sculpt for the boots....[See More]

Continuing with a friend's Ani-men list, Falcon was the easy choice for the base, swapping out his legs for High Evolutionary's. I sculpted the beak and the crest is craft foam. For his feet I just...[See More]

Another brilliant idea from a friend. Honestly the hardest part of this one was remembering to make sure to paint the base black first. I used orange glue sticks for the flames. I was able to avoid...[See More]

Rounding up this group for the Legion of Substitute Heroes. Sculpt for the sleeves, shoulder pads, hair and to fill in the nose hole from the glasses. The last group will be Night Girl, Infectious...[See More]

One for a customer, sculpt for the bracers and boot tops. Rubber bands for the belt. Repainted and sealed...[See More]

Still having a ball. Removed Boom Boom's hair and sculpted the helmet. Just a little sculpt for the clothing details. The SCREWBALL on the leg, arm and helmet were drawn in with a toothpick....[See More]

Next for the Legion of Substitute Heroes, I used a Dagger head and an Aurora body. I used painting tape for the skirt and sculpted the collar, cuffs and boots. Color Kid will finish set....[See More]

I looked at a few heads to decide what would work best for this Frog-man. I really liked the upper lip and the sunken nose of Red Skull for his head. I ground a little of the top of the head down and...[See More]

Had this head cast for some time and had no plans for it. Honestly, I'm not even sure who he is supposed to be. He worked really well for this version of Skull the Slayer. Rubber bands for the strap...[See More]

I had an idea for this one a little while after Sandman came out. I had a friend who was interested to see what I could put together for him. I was thinking the factory texture would have been enough...[See More]

Well, it worked so well, why not use it again, kinda. Loki head, Doc Ock body, sculpt for the chest and arm spots and fill in the rest of the belt from Warpath. Arms are from the fodder pile but I...[See More]

Next for a commissioned Ani-men run is Pig-man. Ground off some of Caliban's head features-ears and brows-and sculpted in a snout and ears. I swapped out his hands for some extra AoA Sabertooth's. As...[See More]

Next in this group Legion of Substitute Heroes is Fire Lad. Ground off the flames of the arms and legs and use a little sculpt for cuffs....[See More]
