Well what's interesting, is I have been on MC for many many years...and have never seen costum jobs on this level. It's truly incredible.

My question is, why ain't ya working as a prototype tooler for Palisades or another company:wink:

Also, who did ya make the green frackle with? I'd love to see your other custom work.

Those customs are AMAZING! I was looking forward to seeing them, but I never knew they could look so proffessional! This gives me hope that maybe I can take a Piggy and make the Annie Sue Pig I've been complaining about forever! Can you tell us about the process And the materials and paints you used? Also, any chance of selling any of them???

Well, to start...The sculpting clay i use is Apoxie Sculpt. This stuff is far better then any other stuff i have used in the past. The paints, they're just Testors Paints. Flat paint. The Flat paint gives you a more realistic Action figure effect. Since Nothing on ANY bodys face is shinny.
