So here is my "First Appearance" Captain Britain. This was my first proper custom which I did about a year ago. I had tried customising figures a few years before but used the wrong paints, brushes etc...... it was a mess! Captain Britain is one of my favourite superheroes and out of all his costumes I liked this one the best, especially when drawn by John Buscema. This was one of those figures I knew no toy manufacture would ever make, so this was the only way I get to have it.

Base Figure - ML Moon Knight
Paints - Games Workshop
Games Workshop "Green Stuff" was used to sculpt the hair and fill the void left around his waist when I removed Moon Knights belt. (I didn't mind the "Green Stuff" but am now using "Aves Apoxie Sculpt" which I much prefer).
3 shades of red were used on the body.
2 Shades of gold were used for the Lion on his chest.
The chain of Caps Amulet is solid silver and the Amulet itself is a diamante brought from a craft shop.
Caps Staff harness is a hairband (I wanted the harness to be usable and I didn't have much faith in my ability to paint it on!)
His staff is of course Moon knights.

Really I should have painted his eyes in but that looks pretty tough, maybe I'll have a go at a later date.

I you guys like it.

Hey thanks guys for taking the time to comment. Superflash I'll do my best to upload larger pics next time - did try but each time after uploading a couple of pic the next pic seem to crash and wouldn't load - the same thing happened with my Black Panther figure. I really appreciate all the comments I've had and was really chuffed when Stevid took the time to comment, I've been digging his work for months!

Would like to see larger photos to see more detail. What I CAN see looks excellent and I also have a fond spot in my heart for that version of the costume. VERY nice!!! Still have a fanzine illustration I did back in the day of him.
