thanks, used the head from the vintage figure

nope not wrong, I;m currently working on three of my favorite figures star brigade Cobra commander,Cyber-Viper and Mega-Viper, I think most people would agree that they are three of the worst figures released, but I love the gawdy bastards!

sculpt and paint, i'll probaly make a few arah guys upset, but i often make use of vintage figures, mainly upper legs, and I'll dremel of body armor and detail peices to accomplish an accurate custom like my secto-viper below

The bike is a Maestro blue dirtbike that I repainted flat black, dry brushed some chrome and brown for dirt on the wheels, added a war machine shoulder cannon, roadblock ammo belt and some grenades.

You had me at "Sky Patrol"... and the Headhunters... and Zandar.

Dude, I'm not even a huge fan of the Anniversary concept (taking old figures and reproducing them exactly the same) but DAMN you know how to do it right. These look production level and damn near flawless.

Really fired up to hear you're working on Cyber-Viper, Mega-Viper, and Star Brigade CC. I'm right there with you on the "gawdy is good" bandwagon.

Wow, I have seen most of these over the years elsewhere I think, but all of them together in one thread is great!

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Wow!!!!!! You do not make crap. LOL. I assume you sculpt those heads yourself? I personally do not collect or care for Modern Era figures, but I would have bought all of those if Hasbro had produced those. Seriously that is some great work and you have an amazing talent.

those customs kick ass! i don't know if i could pick a favorite out of that bunch. i really like Slice, Dice, Night Creeper Leader, and Storm Shadow. those make the top of the list even though i saw a few Dreads in there.

do you take requests from people for what they'd like to see made next or do you take commissions?

Thank you very much. I no longer take commissions, it just took all the fun out of it for me. I've made tons of customs so far, most of which i store here

what did you have in mind? I'm always open for some ideas. My end goal is to have an ARAH accurate representation of every character from the line, some v2's i like and un-produced comic characters. Currently working creating all the characters from the Extreme cartoon.

lots of future figures come to mind. i was curious on how you went about selecting what you were going to make next. didn't know if you held a site wide vote or if you have a list or something.

i can see how commissioned figures can suck the fun away. in my current hobby, i've had to revisit parts for friends that i'm finished with for my car and it's like dragging Artax through The Swamps of Sadness.

i'll try and pull out a figure or two that i made some time ago for fun. they're nothing like what you have. but they're something
