Thanks guys for all the comments...just trying to get these reposted from the past few years. After I get caught up I will respond to each person that comments. Most of these customs have been seen before Up next is one of my all-time favorites from this past year from Feb.10, 2008... I love any of these Shogun Warrior type robots
MAZINGER-Z with Battle scarring

This was a figure I made for the first Secret Customizer Swap we did. TMB(toymaker B) was the one who got this custom. Someone said it looked like he has makeup on. I guess the face does look like its kinda stressed but I liked how it came out anyways

I still have this fella...I plan on selling him soon as I get some more Avengers made. I used a DCU Red Tornado as a base and made the cape out of vinyl. I sealed up the shoulder joints and super glued the elbow joints. Paint rub is my only problem using these tight joints and different colors. I need to start taking them apart and sanding down the joints

This is a custom I made for Deadman in a custom exchange! He requested the color scheme of the costume along the lines of the X-Force squad but an original design. I liked the color combo. I did the metal claw mod on this too

This was a special request from a collector who has a few of my customs
Sunfire Custom Action Figure
1. hml yellowjacket base....good choice?? don't know but it will have to do
2. took the antennae and the wings off and sealed up the chest joints (I don't like them, case closed) sculpted some chainmail. I suck at sculpting, but used SamHain's way of doing it with the xacto knife diamonds on the end.
3.cut out the mask out of vinyl.
4.cut out vinyl for the belt and flames for the gloves and top of boots. almost ready to paint.
5. sprayed it red with krylon fusion
6. detailed it all by hand..no airbrushing on this figure
7. cut out a flame base out of plastic blister package. hand painted and airbrushed the flames

1. found this beast a year or so ago and figured the time is now for a repaint since the fever of the Hulk movie is getting high. I am also doing a custom base for this, but hopefully it won't turn out like crud since it is my first attempt at doing something like this.

2. I sculpted some new hair and filled in some lines and top edges of the pants. I cut out plastic and sculpted that to his bottom pants for the rips. that wasn't a good idea cause I kept getting stuck and scratched by them while painting.

3. painted it black with the krylon black fusion paint.

4. did the normal way I paint(have to use bigger paintbrushes for bigger figures!)...except this time, I borrowed a page from GJ in doing the muscle highlighting and then I airbrushed over that for added detail because this joker has so many muscle lines!

5. for the homemade custom base I used a box, taped some crumpled newspapers to it to make the rocks and covered it with a sculpting material called sculptamold. I sprayed it all black and then drybrushed the brown, yellow and orange in ...

so after all this hard work I sold this on EBAY for a whopping....$36! I shipped the Hulk seperatley because I forgot the base in my truck...that cost $8, the Hulk himself cost me $10..that's $18. When I got back to work to mail the base I took it to KINKOS/FEDEX. (bad mistake). The lady said $9 to ship it..I was like ok. That left me with $10 profit not counting labor and paint and supplies. Then she rang up the total price it was over $20 including the box! I almost crapped! Totally a ripoff...so on this custom, I went in the HOLE! I would've been better off not to have made it!!! The only thing I don't like about this figure is the back muscles

I'm not going to spend a lot of time on these figures since they have been remade. I don't have new photos yet. But this version, Devil Dinosaur was supposed to be smaller when we was first found by Moon Boy. Moon Boy is 6ft tall. The full grown Devil Dinosaur is over 20feet tall and dwarfs Moon Boy. I will repost new pics soon.

I have the exact same roto Hulk figure except mine is factory and nowhere near as cool looking as yours Freddie!!!
Your paint skills are outta this world Bro.
Nice work on all the others as well, that Wolverine you made for Deadman is friggin sweet too.
Can't wait to see you get that Hulk dedication going again!
Keep amazing us Freddie, i'm always looking forward to your updates!

The paint job on that hulk is phenomenal! Is sucks when you have a piece of art that is amazing and ends up selling for s**t, I've been there... oh, I'm there right now!
Keep it up man!

There are those who believe we are an extension of the automobile that we drive. If you ever had a brand new car, you feel like you are the king for a day and everyone is staring at you. Some people love and baby their car so much that it has caused marriages to break up. Some are obsessed with cleaning and shining their vehicles. A few think they and their car are one and the same...Jimmy John Fasernu was one such person.
The year 2008 and Jimmy John had just picked up his brand new, white with blue stripes, Shelby Cobra, GT 500 Ford Mustang! That rainy night, while driving on a treacherous mountain pass on his way home, Jimmy John lost control of his new car when he swerved to miss an old lady pushing a baby carriage (EDITOR'S NOTE*- WHY DO THEY ALWAYS SEEM TO APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE?!?) who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and sent him careening wildly out of control, over a cliff crashing down 1500 feet below. The Result: a smorgasbord of twisted metal mayhem with one man barely alive and a new car tore all to pieces!
Luckily some friendly aliens (ED*- YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME??) were patrolling the area that night, witnessed the whole thing and decided to put Jimmy John and his car back together again. The only major malfunction was Jimmy John's body and the GT500 were a mangled mess of mass destruction! The aliens put both Jimmy John and his car into their experimental upgraded Arcturus Systems 3000, Molecular Matter Space Modulator, with a 1,000,000 watt Re-animating Flux Flatulence Synthesizer with 8 type-O Negative Fallopian tube Warp Capacitators and a water cooled Forty-11 gigabit hard drive that can play all video games ever made with free downloads!
Jimmy John emerged from this contraption better than he was before...BETTER, STRONGER AND FASTER! Man and Machine have been merged. The aliens saved his life but at what cost? Jimmy John has become what he loved...the Man has become the Machine, he has become "COBRA...THE LIVING MUSCLE CAR!!"
As Cobra prepared to leave the alien mothership, in unison the aliens said, "J.J. our child, take heed and proceed with great caution. You were not the first 'CARMAN'. We visited your planet in 1969 and made a grave mistake saving the life of a drunken maniac creating a monster in the ensuing process. J.J. our son....you are our only hope, but beware of..........THE JUDGE!!!!!!!

COBRA'S POWERS ARE:
He is essentially a cyborg. A machine with the mind of a man with alien technology and weaponry. His body has been merged with that of his car creating a superhuman with powers and abilities far beyond those of normal vehicles.

He is able to run at great speeds capable of reaching Mach 1.
His vision enables him to see in many different light spectrums. Eye beams emit a high density white light able to blind oncoming traffic.
Superhuman strength
Shoulder laser cannons
Runs on high test 93 octance fuel and has to refuel every 24hrs or his spark plugs will corrode.
His shield is also a remote controlled drone that serves as a recon scout

His body exterior consists of grill with cobra snake emblem, chrome belt and spare tire kit for emergency road side service.
Side leg exhaust pipes. Rear tail lights and gashole(EDITOR*- I'm not even going there). He also comes equipped with the standard fingerless leather driving gloves.

Well, this has been on my list to do for awhile now. Even before the 12" cosmic surfer came out. When that hit, i knew it was a perfect base. I think it was variable penquin who mentioned over at figure realm i should do a eternity figure when he saw something else i had done a space effect on. I cut the head peice out of plastic and the cape out of shower curtain. Sprayed it fusion black, hand painted and then airbrushed it. Sealed it with dullcote. Oh, if you look close enough you can see i tried to paint the horsehead nebula below his abs. He stands 15" counting the top of the collar head peice. I've found that doing abstract paint jobs on customs like these, plays into my strong qualities in customizing. Doing traditional, straight paint jobs on customs doesn't play into what I can do best. Customs like Eternity and the space reflection Silver Surfer does.

In this pic, Eternity is hard to see

Took off the hair, sculpted the gloves & boot tops, sculpted the belt around the waist (added the sash from the ML Dr. Strange) did my first hands swap using the ML Strange. I like Bogie's version better than this one

Found this 12" statue and converted it into Storm. Tried to sculpt the hair, cut out vinyl for the bolt earring, hand painted and airbrushed it.

Batista body, swapped heads with marvel select skrull soldier, hasbro ff series thing's right arm, dcd elogonated man's left arm, cut out vinyl for the shoulder pads, vinyl and hot glue for the removeable flames, hand painted and airbrushed for shading. I like the classic super skrull...what can I say? not much, I know...lol!

Clear white queen body, ml scarlet witch head, took off the hair and face shroud and sculpted the hair and cut out a new face shroud out of vinyl, sculpted top of boots...hand painted. couldn't find any use for air action on this custom.
