Thanks Ron. I've not been one for revisiting old customs but it had to be done. My newer customs were showing the older ones up. I also caught the Tom Riker episode on telly the other night. I forget how much fun they were.

I've lost the will to live a bit with my trek customs as I'm having to rebuild Deanna Troi from scratch.

So, I have been diverted by a custom I've wanted for years. I've even approached people to make one for me to no avail. It's my favourite Marvel character, primarily because the first incarnation was one of my first customs and easy to make.
Here's the start!



Enjoy!

I've added the replacement head after making a sufficient sized hole and used milliput to seal it. I've been quite happy at my molding attempts in the past, more like surprised, and so I have decided not to let my nerves hold me back.

Great to see you back. Love the Carbo treatment. Off to share.

Is this six inch or 3 and 3/4"?

Thanks! I'd forgotten how good it was to get the front page treatment.

It is 3.75'

Here's another update



I've also finished another Mando which I'll show off later

Just saw this up on the front page. Awesome my friend!

Thanks guys. It took me less than one week, which I am really surprised at.

Here's a quick mock up with the end result in place.


I grabbed a few figures out of my 'Empire' box. They're not the right ones

Also, here's a completed Xasha, Boba's girlfriend, from TFUII Comic.


I wanted to use a spare CW helmet for her to show armour differences. I don't think she has a skirt in the comic but, hey, I went with what I had.
Enjoy!

Looks fantastic! This was one of my favorite story archs in the Marvel series. Time to make Danni and Ric Dual.
