Hey Realmers, so today I present to you the Man of Steel himself, Henry Cavill. This custom is very special to me and has alot of meaning because it is for a very special someone, my girlfriend. :D My girlfriend's birthday is coming up and this is one of her bday gifts. I am going to suprise her with this Man of Steel custom. She has always been a huge fan of Superman and other super heroes as well, Superman making the top of her list. She has also always been very supportive and loving towards my hobbies and interests including customizing figures and then being a part of this great action figure community. I put alot of work and time into this creation and I wanted to share it with you all. To my Girlfriend: Happy Bday babe, I love you!! The necks custom was modified with a magnet and watch battery for maximum articulation. The figure was drybrushed as well as airbrushed for a few details including the hair, face, boots, and midsection. The Super Symbol and silver details were drybrushed too. I drybrushed the trim on the cape and boots. I took my time to make his face as accurate as possible. So there you have it, a movie accurate Man of Steel!!
This is one of the many figures I wanted to comment on sooner (but I had the plan of keeping myself as silent as possible before my first contest) and I'm happy to finally do so. I can remember logging in the day you posted this guy and fighting myself to stay away from my keyboard. This guy is beyond life like! That metallic blue and the paint application to the face is MARVELOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for dropping by Pare.... It really means a lot coming from one of my favorite artist. Your work too is very inspiring, especially that Lobo you made.
Anytime bro! I know you would do the same if I ever uploaded some new customs haha. School and work have cut my free time down, so I have to get going again soon. My list needs to be fulfilled! Anyways, great job bro, keep em' coming..
wouwhohouw!!!! Bro! Thats an awesome custom on a awesome figure!!! Great Job! Worked out the Details..looking so great!Keep going..and fill the realm as long I am not around
Ah, young love. It's a beautiful thing. I remember a time when I lavished gifts apon my special lady. Flowers, chocolates, jewelry. Nowadays I give her the gift of copious amounts of 'natural gas' under the bedspread. Unfortunately she is never very appreciative of the many pleasures I have bestowed on her. I have even given her 3 children. Still she remains unappreciative. Yes, I know, I am quite the romantic, but I could never compete with the love that you have shown your girlfriend . Brings a tear to my eye. Great looking Superman MC, perfect paints, well done . I guess it's just a matter of time before I receive my special something in the mail. Nino.
Ahhh, so deep down your a big softy, I knew it. Well that or your getting soft with old age. Thank you so much for dropping by brother, I really appreciate the beautiful words. Thank you for sharing with me some of your life expiriences in true love, im more than sure ill be in the same spot as you one day and I look foward to it. As far as your special gift, just give me your address and ill send you a suprise box full of a bunch of goodies, including my very own unique formula of natural gas. -MC-

Fantastic Work Bro and an Excellent B-Day gift , also you're a brave man dude ,a Playarts Kay! , not many dare customize such expensive figures , but you have proven , you more than have the awesome skill and talent for it , BRAVO my friend , masterful work!!!!!
Hermano, thank you so much for the kind words, they truly mean a lot. I was a little skeptical at first but I had been practicing a few days prior on crappy bootleg figures and I felt skillful and confident enough to give it a go. I really put a lot of love and passion into this for her. Thanks again Larry and also, my name is Curly.
