Original design was done last year for the GIJCC Custom Contest (3rd place yeah!) at JoeCon by NotPicard. Added the flaming cyborg arm because, well...it just seemed right. Excellent work all around!

Custom made from an incomplete original design by my good buddy Tom-1! THIS is what happens when you show me pics of a kick-ass custom, and then don't finish it. I steal the idea and claim it as my own. You earned this Tom-1.

The new bag features six newly sculpted holes in the top for lines for the guide ring, removal of the old handle and addition of the ammo pouch in it's place (rotates), added the hook on the line for the belt carabiner to allow him to slide up and down, along with a second ammo pouch with zip ties, removed and filled the old knife holder, and a buckle for the working shoulder strap. Oh, and about 4 feet of line...for rappelling fun.

Also, shortened the straps on the chest rig before casting to fit this torso, added two more carabiners to the side of the rappelling harness, and sculpted the pushed up sleeves and ribbed cuffs on the forearms.

Finally, added a working pistol holster to the back of the chest harness in a side draw rig, and cast the head that the helmet came from and them dremeled it out to fit the head I use on all my HnR customs.

First WIP pics of a new Female COBRA Soldier. Saw this at HISSTank, but don't remember the OP. If anyone does, feel free to chime in with the credit!

Here is the business suit I just finished. Figures that Hasbro will be releasing it finally in the Marvel Universe line. I'll still make a set in Navy for my Crimson Twins and a few other things. This one features the first mock up of my Gyre-Viper head. More detail to come as it's finished.

Cast custom sent in by BrokenArrowToys.com contributor IWBeta/Bad Sociologist. Changed out the thighs and hands, otherwise it's all his design. Look for a variant that makes the Heli-Viper soon.

Torso courtesy of Slayer Design Studio. Added sculpted detail to the upper arms, outside thighs, and knees to match the movie design. Original sculpt by their guy Ben.

These are a collaboration between myself and a couple of heavy hitters in the TF community. These are the first shots out of the first set of molds, so they are not perfect. That's pretty common with larger pieces the first time through as you learn where the parts "catch air".

I was leaving that for Hasbro, and as you could see at Con they came through. If you notice, there's even a helmet to cover the hideous head sculpt. :lol:
