Well here are a few things that I'm working on...

A taller Stealth Suit Captain America. Right now I just swapped the knees and lower legs with the Winter Soldier and did a little basic painting to make them match the rest of the uniform.


A couple of Crossbones using WWE elite figures. One for myself and one to sell to fund more projects


Man seeing Commander Rogers with those WWE elites really makes me want to rebuild him using an elite figure.

U-Foes Ironclad. For the fist they are castings of my Brimstones fist casted by Black Arachnis. The head is a re-sculpted Smart Hulk head that was enlarged by Glassman.




A taller Marvel Now! Captain America. When chatting with a future commissioner we were talking about redoing the Wreckers on the Hyperion body, and the idea of making Now Cap taller came up. So I decided to see what it would looking like on my personal Cap. I cut the boots and added a styrene tube for a spacer, not I'm going to use apoxie sculpt to re-sculpt the boots.


A Ms. Marvel for a commissioner. With the lighter skin tones I'm trying to match it with the Flamebird head that he sent me for her... Right now she looks a little naughty :mrgreen:



I almost for got to add these to the list. The "The Amazing Spidey-Fan" got a set of Marvel Hot Toys heads shrunk down by Glassman for me to fit and paint for him. I also have a two Banner heads, a custom Spider-Man, and another Evil Dead Ash for him as well.

I kind of work like I have ADHD when I'm working on my customs. I have a ton more in my WIP box. I'm trying to keep focus so I can complete some more... but speaking of that habit yesterday evening I decided to do a few quick mods to one of my extra Black Cat figures. I swapped out the heels for some flats that I bought from casting cave, and I did some repainting. I painted her gloves and boots black, added some metallic highlights on the costume, dry brushed a little white on the fur, repainted the skin-tones on her chest, and did a little detail painting on the face..


Here is another update to Cap I added a little more dry brushing to the blue areas of his uniform, and I went over the armored area with a metallic blue.

This week I've been working on trying to catch up on commission work all for the same commissioner.

First was a repair job. He purchased grungethemovie's awesome 90's Hulk. Which is beautifully sculpted, but at one point or another it took a tumble. Which broke the head and chipped up the paint on the body. When a he told me that he had a modified Select hulk figure that had a broken head, so I told him that I would be more than happy to fix it for him. And I was taken for a huge surprise when I opened the box and it was grungethemovie's incredible 90's Hulk in there.




After repairing the fractures on the head and adding a little color to the eyes I touched up the paint on the head and body I applied to good sealer and then sprayed it with a dullcoat. I just can't get over how awesome grungethemovie's sculpting is, and I took a lot of pictures show off all of that sculpting work.









With this one he is wanting a mix of the original Toybiz Archangel with the new Hasbro one. So far I modified the wing connector to fit on the Toybiz body, and I had to make an adapter for the neck using a ROML Ghost Rider neck to fit the Hasbro head on to the old body.





He is also wanting to have an alternate body for a custom Samuel Alexander Nova that he already had to have an older Nova. So I've started sculpting Nova's new alternate body.

My V5 of Now! Cap is almost finished. He just needs sealed then dullcoated.


Here is another update on Ms Marvel's paint work.


Update on Agent Coulson.



I'm also going to be making an Avengers A.I. Vision, and I may end up making the entire team.

Agent Coulson is pretty much done

Here is another update on Ms Marvel. She is getting very close to being finished. For the hair I still need to add a few more layer of dry brushing so it doesn't look so yellow.

Here is another update on Ms Marvel.


I missed out on getting the DCIE Poison Ivy, but I wasn't too upset about it since I never really liked the green skin Ivy. A couple of weeks ago I scored one of those Chinese test shots for $11 shipped, and it came in yesterday. I'm planning on painting her up with regular flesh tones.


Oh and I finally got around to finishing my Lex Luthor. I snagged an extra Phantom Stranger on the cheap and removed the cape, filled in the hole in the back of the coat, swapped out the hands for some in my fodder box, and I swapped out the head with one off an Orange Lantern Lex which I painted.

Here is a little update on some Marvel Heads that I'm painting up for "The Amazing Spidey-Fan" from the Fwoosh forum. I have the flesh-tones finished and the the whites of the eyes and the lining around the eyes done. Now I need to paint the pupils, eyebrows, hair, and the goatees on the RDJ heads.

Fantastic attention to detail, especially the faces. I wish I had the eyes to focus so minutely. Alas, I'm old.

I'm cheating I bought some 3x reading glasses just for fine detail painting

Here is another quick update on the Movie-verse heads. I applied the first base coat for the hair to most of the heads. After that is done I'll start with the dry-brushing.
