Inanimate Objects

Etrigan (Repaint)

Just a simple repaint. Not even a full one at that. I simply dry brushed some metallic red over the chain mail and the armor details. I also painted the cape and loin cloth. Created May 2022 (read more...)

Lex Luthor (Comic)

Old Lex here is little more than a head swap using the Diamond Select Gotham TV Alfred as a base. (I think I painted the vest. It’s been awhile….) The head came from the old DC Direct Silver Age Lex Luthor figure. I will always prefer the John Byrne/STAS Lex-as-tycoon, (read more...)

Question

The idea to repaint Mcfarlane’s version of Hush as the Question comes straight from shinigamicustoms. He posted some photos of such, and I happen to have a spare Hush figure lying right in front of me. I think I had him converted within a day! Depending on how far down (read more...)

Robin (Classic)

As soon as McFarlane’s Dark Knight Returns Carrie Kelly Robin started to hit store shelves, every customizer worth his/her salt started to convert Carrie into a young Dick Grayson Robin. Most people performed a basic head swap and called it a day. I wanted to take things a bit farther. (read more...)

Talon

Long-time readers will remember the “Casimir Curse,” in which I build a custom figure, to be shortly followed by an official announcement of said character being sold at retail. (To be fair, that was to everyone’s benefit.) That hasn’t happened for a long time. Until Talon. A few weeks after (read more...)

Ventriloquist (Arnold Wesker)

Outside of some animated-style figures, a proper Ventriloquist figure has yet to be made by any company. (C’mon Todd, this is your chance to step up.) I’ve always wanted a basic, comic-style Arnold Wesker and Scarface on my shelf. I started this project, and it sort of fell between the (read more...)

Christopher Lloyd

I like to think that if the Muppet Show had carried on for just another year or two, Christopher Lloyd would have been a natural fit for a guest star. (Based on Taxi alone, well before Back to the Future.) This custom figure is the result of that thought. I (read more...)

Christopher Reeve

The Christopher Reeve episode of the Muppet Show is pure delight. He is clearly having tremendous fun with all the fur and feathers. When I stumbled across a free 3D print file of Christopher Reeve’s head, I knew I had to take action. (Note the head was of Christopher, not (read more...)

Francine Langstrom (BTAS Bat Monster)

“Lady Man-Bat” is one of those customs figures that almost every BTAS customizer makes eventually. It’s not too difficult to get right, and it’s a legitimate variation on the design. Clearly Mrs. Langstrom was built on a regular DC Direct BTAS Man-Bat figure. The only physical addition is the torn (read more...)

Harvey Dent (BTAS)

Another custom that is entirely the fault of Zelu1984. If he had not digitally sculpted this amazing Harvey Dent head, I probably wouldn’t have made this. But he did, and I did, and now here we are. Thank you, sir! Like so many Harvey Dent customs before him, this one (read more...)
