First off Deathlok, Valkyrie, Cyke, Abomination and Ares are the only untouched Hasbro figs. They were new arrivals a couple weeks ago which is why they are in the pic. Now for the customs...

Daredevil - never liked the armor bits on that outfit so I just left them off. I believe the base fig was Steve Rogers with a regular DD head
Antman - added antennas (paperclip with sculpted ends) and particle container
Moon Knight - mix of DD & Steve Rogers with Cloak head and cape
Beast - gray repaint
Thunderstike - hasbro TS head, jacket, belt, lower legs and mace; the rest is a Gladiator body with sculpted on disks
Vision - I have the regular Vision but hated the puny buck, so made this using Mysterio with the Chameleon head (looks kinda bland/robotic - will replace this with the head from the new vision coming out since Chamy lacks a nose . His jewel was sculpted on and I need to redo his mid section. The sculpt work there was one of my first attempts. Need to fix that up.
Hydro Man - Hyperion head Sandman body
Sandman - Mix of regular (right arm, torso, & upper right leg) and sand (head, lower left arm, lower right leg, entire left leg) to give him a "powering up" efffect
Shocker - repaint and sculpted vibro gloves
Baron Zemo - painted over the over done purple wash
Omega Red - silvered over the white and whited over the blue shading on his arms and face
Black Cat - FF Sue Storm with Hasbro Black Cat head; sculpted fur. She's getting redone as the buck is too short for the character. Going to redo on the Aurora buck when I get another

My customs are pretty heavily modified - lots of trimming, sanding and sealing during the process - so they can be posed without the paint chipping. Some were completely disassembled (like Beast) but I only take them completely apart now if I need to swap parts. It's a huge PITA taking them apart just to paint a joint since putting them pack together is rarely worth the effort it takes. Those pins are beyond difficult to get back in at this scale. So, that's it for this round. Working on more characters (Campbell Mary Jane; Silver Sable; Luke Cage; Madame Viper; Maverick; Gambit; Spidey; Titania; Bastion... ) that I'll post once the entire group is done.

Hoping these load properly.

Not really into customs but liking that Hydro man, looks easy enough to do too
