I recently bought a McFarlane Elvis Presley figure. Maybe there are some who remember. This figure had a broken finger and his microphone was missing. I also worked on it a little today and tried to complete the deficiencies. I wanted to do as good a job as I could. I hope will like it everyone. Thank you very much.

Wow you did a great job especially on the finger, I can barely tell it was ever broke.

Thank you so much. I'm glad you liked it. The finger is very small and it's really hard to work with details. However, I think it looks good. I especially try to complete the missing figures. There are a few other projects I'm working on right now.

Thank you very much for your comment. I'm glad you liked it.

Thank you very much for the praise, but I don't think I am a successful sculptor. I wish I could. I am someone who has been dealing with handmade works for many years, but I definitely think it should be a natural talent. The part that I am perhaps the best at in this field, according to myself, is dimensioning. Because I do it by looking and deciding without using any measurement unit. I really wish my drawing and sculpting skills were extraordinary. Still I try to do my best. Again, thank you all so much for your comments. It is a driving force and motivates.

By the way, there was a small soldier figure that I bought last week. He can't standing and needs a diorama. As of today, I am preparing a diorama for this soldier. I'll share photos with you when it's finished.

I have now completed the diorama work. I am attaching the photos. I really started the project in a very concentrated way and I couldn't even photograph its stages. I tried to fit all the imagination in my head into this small space.
Your comments are very important. Thanks again to everyone.

Btw, I plan on changing my collection thread to focus on all female characters since my collection is 90 percent female.
Wanted to see your thoughts on it first though. |

What do you think about the collection change? Mixed collection? Or is it just a DC collection of male and female characters?

Thank you very much for your valuable comment. I am so glad you liked it. It's a good idea, of course you can try a diorama for Posion Ivy and I'm sure it will be very nice. When you combine your talents with imagination, magnificent works will emerge.
What do you think about the collection change? Mixed collection? Or is it just a DC collection of male and female characters? Here is a example of my thought process, I wake up then decide randomly I want a new spider related character and I go to buy spider man but then I realize there is a spider woman available and well one week later spider woman comes in the mail. |

I personally like it, and it would not only be dc as it will span across franchises, also It would be about all females as they get much less representation in the figure industry, and I just think they are cooler than most male counterparts.
Here is a example of my thought process, I wake up then decide randomly I want a new spider related character and I go to buy spider man but then I realize there is a spider woman available and well one week later spider woman comes in the mail. Actually, this is natural. Because sometimes I decide to buy a figure, but suddenly I change my mind and think to myself "What if another figure I'm looking for comes across". Toy collecting is a very busy world indeed. It's normal to have a hard time making decisions. Maybe you can make a list. At the top of this list, you can write the figures you want to buy the most. Then at the end of this list you can write what you want to buy later and think about it.

In fact, it is difficult to really decide when buying a figure. As far as I understand, you can see a different figure and buy it when you go to buy a figure that you are aiming for.

But I just can’t bring myself to care much for the male characters, and as a result my collection and purchases are mainly female. This is why I want to change my thread to include all female characters, I just think that the ladies need more representation. |

Yes I understand. There are actually a lot of female characters. I see especially very high quality sculptures. Many brands make great sculptures. However, the prices are quite expensive. I hope these prices come down a bit and we can all get the figures and sculptures we want.
What I meant thought is that females characters are ignored heavily by dc multiverse and sometimes though not very often at all even marvel legends. Idk maybe it’s just me, but back on topic what do you think of the idea. |

Female characters are definitely important and should be in the foreground. I bought a wonder woman figure last week. I'm still trying to complete my missing characters. Of course, the budget is very important. I'm so happy for the Lara Croft figure. I expect you to share a photo from your shelf. You're welcome.

I think it is a very good idea to create a collection of female characters. This will be very special. It would be nice to buy whatever characters you want to see in your collection.

You're welcome. it is very important to manage cost, and get the most important characters to you before the rest just incase your favorites rise in price. And wich Wonder Woman did you get?, I’m curious. |

Thanks and I will certainly upload pics of her, and I hear you about the budget thing as

When I saw the figure it reminded me of the old Batman Animated Series cartoon. I think it looks like old toys.
