Lady Shiva
Lady Shiva is a repainted Mortal Kombat Kitana by McFarlane. (Ironically, a few weeks after I finished this, Todd announced his own official red repaint. The Casimir Curse holds strong!). I swapped the head for a Diamond Select Psylocke. I added the fabric skirt to help differentiate her from the (read more...)
Ra’s al Ghul
Old Ra’s uses a common recipe. I can’t recall where I saw it first, and I don’t know who did it first, but it’s a great idea. It’s little more than a headswap and some minor paint. The body is a Marvel Legends Baron Karl Mordo. I used a DC (read more...)
TYGER Trooper
In “Arkham City,” Professor Hugo Strange and Mayor Quincy Sharp hired TYGER Security to maintain order. The TYGER troops are ex-military, and act as Strange’s private army, enacting his will as he sees fit. This custom started life as a McFarlane Fortnite Havoc figure. (He’s the one that looks like (read more...)
Harleen Quinzel (By Gaslight)
Ms. Quinzel is made from a Diamond Select Westworld Clementine figure. I cut off the front of the skirt, revealing the nicely-sculpted legs underneath. (Though sadly no double-jointed knees.) I added the the wrist cuffs from a DC Essentials Harley. The head and pigtails are from the DC Direct Suicide (read more...)
Selina Kyle (By Gaslight)
Ms. Kyle was made from a Diamond Select Westworld Clementine figure. I swapped the bare arms for the sleeved arms of a Marvel Legends White Rabbit. I used Magic Sculpt to reshape the torso and the shoulders into an appropriate jacket and cravat. Her head is an older DC Direct (read more...)
Pamela Isley (By Gaslight)
Ms. Isley was made from a Diamond Select Westworld Clementine figure. I left the dress largely intact. I swapped the arms for a Diamond Select X-Files Scully. I added some Magic Sculpt around the shoulder to form a bolero jacket. I replaced the head with a casting of a Bombshells (read more...)
Harley Quinn II (Marian Drews)
SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t read Sean Gordon Murphy’s amazing “Batman: White Knight,” then please click off this page and come back later. It’s for your own good! It’s no secret I love this book. Soon as I can figure out the recipes, I’m sure I’ll make more characters based (read more...)
Harley Quinn (Bombshell Circus Ringmaster)
I’ve had the idea for a Circus Ringmaster Harley in my head for some time. It just seemed like a natural fit. I always figured I’d get around to her sooner or later. She was not a priority. Then a photo of an old Zatanna figure popped up in my (read more...)
Punchline (Bombshell)
New villains come and go. Very few have the staying power necessary to be added to Batman’s Rogue’s Gallery, such as Harley or Bane. Punchline is the latest villain to get a big push by DC. Normally, I might wait to see if a character sticks around before dedicated time (read more...)
Nightwing (GTO)
McFarlane’s GTO Joker figure offers up all kinds of customizing possibilities. Not the least of which is Nightwing! Obviously, the easy part is simply repainting the green to an appropriate Nightwing blue. The harder part was finding a head that would pass as Sean Gordon Murphy’s depiction of Mr. Grayson.
