This is my entry to the grab bag custom contest. From the three options I had I chose Magneto because this custom character is near and dear to my heart. A Magneto custom done by Jin Saotome actually got me into customizing in the first place. When I saw Jin's Magneto I was totally and utterly blown away and I have been hooked on customizing ever since. For my recipe I used a FO Sabre-tooth body because I liked the lean muscular frame that the figure had. Magneto is supposed to be an older character and a little passed his prime, so I thought the base figure suited the him. I am a big fan of Jim Lee's art and I love the way he drew Magneto so I used a Hush Superman head to simulate his rendition of the Master of Magnetism. I also had an idea to make my Magneto custom look as if he had done battle, so I used DCSH Bizzaro's cape and gave him a "dirty" paint job.
Sorry for the crappy pics, I was in a hurry to make the deadline and rushed the photo session. Thanks for looking and have a happy summer.
Thanks for all who viewed and voted for me. Time really got away from on this contest. And the paint was literally drying while I was taking the pics. I was not happy with paint, it was a bit shiny for my taste and the face is really bad. I am going to repaint and maybe update later. Special thanks Fitzjedi,RealSupaman,Bartowski,Necrollecter,Stitches, and CFC for the awesome comments you guys are AWESOME.
