Custom 2002 Skeletor 'DCU' style figure!

JinSaotome · 05-28-2010, 10:48 PM

Hey everyone, I was asked to post this here by a couple of people. So for your viewing pleasure...

"Skeletor was created using the body of a DC Universe Public Enemies Batman since those don't have the boot or glove sculpting like the other DCU figures. The head, armor, lower hands and lower legs were from the 2002 Skeletor sculpted by the 4 Horsemen. The feet came from a Marvel Legends Face Off Sabertooth and had to be fitted inside the Skeletor legs via lots of drilling and pegs. His cape was a modified DCU Demon cape, some Superman Red flames were magnetically attached to the staff, and in the end it all came together perfectly to make a super articulated Skeletor!

EXCELLENT custom Jin! The 2002 designs are my favorites and I hope the 4H and Mattel revisit them with full articulation sometime. Your custom is one of the best Skeletors I have seen man.

what paints did you use and how? Reason I ask is cuz this custom looks BAD F'n ASS, oh and looks like it might have taken a while to do...?!?

Big ups on the custom work again, you guys are inspiring me to do something similar....but not MOTU figures though!!
