Here we go! Gonna jump right into it because this was a TON of work for me. Started with a bunch of parts from the fodder bin; DCU Orion head, LCBH Super Patriot hip joints and upper legs and lower legs/ calves. Knees and feet are from LCBH The Darkness, torso, bicepts and elbows from MVL Scorpion, forearms/ hands from DCU Lex Luthor. Waist/ crotch from MVL Ultron (good riddance lol). The head is a combo os Aves Fixit with some tech pieces added from DCU Monguls belt/ suit. Pouches from MVL face-off Red Skull, yellow removable plasma grenade is cut from MVL BAF Annihilus, back pack and cables/ hoses are from MVL Pyro and the two pipes pointed skyward are from Hasbro Heroes reborn Iron Man. Sculpted angled yellow strap across abs, hip mounted close combat axe is from DCU Ares (nice addition lol). Belt is from DCU Guy Gardrner. Bullets from DCU Destero armor, bandelier over right shoulder from Hasbro Legends War Machine. Shoulder pads from DCU Forager and Steel. Communication piece on head is from McFarlane Overtkill and center piece on forehead is from DCU Orions exercise equipment looking contraption he rides on lol!

Gently opened up the Scorpion body, dremmeled it out for articulation and spacing to avoid paint rub (a Comicustoms! standard procedure), dremmeled elbows, knees, top of bicepts. Sculpted mask mostly over the nose and above mouth. Hip grenade is removable with a peg dremmeled and glued into it. Dremmeled holes into the head, back pack, hip etc where hoses go in and grenade is mounted. Airbrushed and handpainted the tight detailed areas. Stripped the paint out the eyes and repainted it. Added some copper color to the Testors yellow I used on the armor. I think thats everything... but the kitchen sink... lol. Thanks for looking.... this one took some work. I was a lil discouraged since my Cable "timeslip" custom didn't do so hot, but I am back lol. Take care and keep up the awesome work my fellow Facebook friends etc!

last pic just for size comp.

Cool Maverick! Hes been one of my faves ever since he popped up in the Jim Lee X-Men book! That custom seems like it took a lot of work but it was worth it! I had no idea the MS Thor was that big, WM and Supes look small Great job!

that's PERFECT! The parts swapping and adding makes my head swim! I just have never got my mind around all of that yet and I guess that's why I have a lot of parts laying around! This is off the charts good and probaby the best one going today, especially with the articulation. Be proud of this one and it's definitely worth an ounce of GOLD! BELIEVE THAT and don't settle for less!
