I don't have any feelings on Firelord (due to my lack of knowledge of the character) but this is a truly professional looking figure.

I actually try not to use washes when I can avoid it. I try to use layers of highlights instead of washes when I can. On this one the only placed I used a wash was on his yellow "onesie" suit.

He was a Herald of Galactus, i think there was an episode on Fantastic Four and Silver Surfer cartoons of the 90s.

Used to love Firelord in the 80s- 90s.. havent seen him around since Spidey gave him the "Christmas Story" beat-down (Cap had to pull Spidey off..LOL)
The figure looks great.. I would have liked more of an orange wash on the body rather than a tanish brown.. but other than that.. awesome!! |

Okay, you're not allowed to make any more customs. Halfway through looking at your pics, I think that it's an actual MU figure I'm looking at, then I'm sorely disappointed when I realize that it's a one of a kind figure that I'll never own. LOL.

I was just thinking today that it would be awesome if MU made a Firelord figure. They can just use that as an example!

Nice work, very nice wash details and the flame staff is nice. Would be awesome if you could rig an led on it, but still awesome none the less.

Very cool!....gotta try one now! Maybe I'll go with the Annihiliation look instead!
(which should be easy since he looks just like Flame On Torch!) |

Thanks Jason! I would love to see you do an Annihilation version. I debated doing that myself but in the end I went with the classic look because that's how I normally think of this character.
