    "The Thing" Blair

    I'm finally finished with my "The Thing" customs! Well, with the people that is, I still have one or two "Thing" creatures to do, a helicopter, maybe a diorama. Here's Blair. He started out as a Star Wars Legacy Malakili (Rancor Keeper) with a head from SDS. Glasses were made...

    Captain America Hydra soldiers

    I was at Wal-Mart yesterday and found two different Hydra soldiers. The only difference I could find was the helmets and weapons. One soldier appeared to have a visor that moved up to reveal the face, can anyone confirm this?

    Looking for hair & head match

    I'm in the process of gewtting parts to make a Ripley figure from Aliens. I think I have a head that will work, Resolute Baroness (whi;le the factory eyes are a little narrow, I think it will work if I paint them more "wide eyed". Does anyone know if one of the casters out there has made a...

    Polishing a figure?

    I purchased one of those new MU Iceman figures and took to cleaning off the silver markings on him with paint thinner. And of course this marred the finish. While it did melt it a tiny bit, it's more like it roughened up the finish. Is there any way to polish this back to a nicer finish...

    Mars Attacks - Martian soldier (not the movie)

    This is a tribute to the 90's comics, not the movie. I have to say that I think this is one of the best customs I've made so far...although my wife says that spot is still held by zombie Abe Lincoln. It went off much as I planned with some last minute choices that ended up adding to the...

    New articulation in SW figures?

    So I bought a Quinlon Vos figure and just now opened him. I didn't notice it at first but he has new articulation, the upper legs are connected to the hip like Joe figures! Well, not exactly, Vos has a hinge at that point just like all SW figures have at the shoulder whereas Joe figures have...

    Thoughts on this...

    I'm working on a Mars Attacks custom (not the crappy Burton film, more like the 90's comic) and I was thinking of using rig from a Sky Dive figure (I think that was it's name?) I know it looks pretty bulky as the figure itself is very thin, I thought this would add some nice contrast. The...

    skin tight clothes

    I'm about to work on a custom that has very tight clothes so I was wondering, should I try and sculpt any of it, or simply paint it on? What do you do?

    two females

    This first one was inspired by Fled's custom. It's not supposed to by Scarlett, just a female mechanic. I plan on using her as a mechanic for the Bertie I have, but I haven't decided if that's going to be part of a Joe-verse or not. Kitty Pride body Renegades Tunnel Rat legs and coveralls...

    Who to talk to about a custom weapon?

    I'm needing a pistol that doesn't exist in 1:18th. I don't need a ton of them, maybe three or four so I don't know that they need to be molded and cast. But reguardless, who can I talk to about having a pistol made?

    Custom Firefly WIP-would like suggestions

    I've been meaning to do a custom Firefly. This started out as the neon colored Doc and I think I've managed to do a somewhat decent job of muting those bright colors. On this custom, I really want to do a good job. My customs tend to be a bit rough, and that's fine as I'm building them for...

    ideas for this?

    The head is an SDS cast, the body is Destroyer from Thor. I had to use this large figure because the head just looked odd on a smaller figure. I'm not sure what else to do with him. I don't want him to be a black night or demon cliche, although that's probably what will happen. My thought...
