Catwoman (Bombshell 2)
It’s no secret that I love Ant Lucia’s art, and I especially love his DC Bombshells designs. But I always thought it was a little weird that of the officially sanctioned outfits, Poison Ivy ran around in her unmentionables but nobody else did. (The comic book seems to agree with (read more...)

Lois Lane (Eradicator)
From idea to final execution, this might be the fastest custom I’ve ever made. I was reading the collected edition of DC’s “Tales from the Dark Multiverse.” The stories are alternate versions of famous stories, in which something takes a dark turn and the end results are changed. In this (read more...)
Talia al Ghul (Classic)
Talia is an odd character in that, for her essential place in Batman history, she is not usually associated with an iconic look. She’s definitely a femme fatale, but is rarely depicted the same way twice. I wanted a somewhat generic, Bond-girl style Talia on my shelf. It was time (read more...)
Poison Ivy (She-Devil)
Since I finished my Harley Quinn She-Devil custom, I’ve had a hankerin’ to make more “cave girls.” Can’t make a Harley without an Ivy, right? I remembered I had an old ToyBiz She-Hulk that uses a sculpt that was originally intended for their SDCC Shanna the She-Devil. So the project (read more...)
Harley Quinn (She-Devil)
This custom was 100% inspired by the art of renowned comic book cover artist Joe Quinones. (He’s done some amazing work for DC, Marvel, and others.) His original piece is an homage to and a parody of the Shanna the She-Devil #1 (1972.) This Harley exists very much in the (read more...)
Bettie Page (Astronaut)
Bettie Page as a retro-sci-fi astronaut seemed like a natural fit. As a custom goes, she was a fairly easy build. The body is Space Harley from the designer series. I filled in and sanded down the etched diamonds, and added some swivel articulation to the upper arms. The head (read more...)
Bettie Page (Bombshell)
How can anybody look at the Bombshell Poison Ivy figure and not see a Bettie Page custom just begging to be made? Far be it from me to ignore the call. This one was simple. It’s just a head swap (Cleopatra Bettie) and paint. Aside form patching up a couple (read more...)
Black Canary (Bombshell)
Black Canary was one of the six Bombshells figures solicited by DC Collectibles and then cancelled. I was not prepared to take no for an answer. So I took matters into my own hands. Canary was a tough recipe to crack. By no means do I claim to have found (read more...)
Bumblebee (Bombshell)
Bumblebee was one of the six Bombshells figures solicited by DC Collectibles and then cancelled. I was not prepared to take no for an answer. So I took matters into my own hands. From the waist down, she’s taken from a Bombshells Batgirl. The torso and arms are from a (read more...)
