Ok, parts list arms: upper parts of an armored CC cut off and glue to a 25 Bat upper legs: RoC accelerator suit Lower legs: armored CC Head: RoC CC with sculpting (the targeting eye is the ass end of a lightsaber) Chest: soooo much sanding, dremeling and sculpting. I glued the bottom part of a PoC CC to the upper part of a 25th Bat. That ruined the articulation and I wanted him to move at the waist, so I then cut off the bottom piece at crotch level and plugged in a piece of a MU toy that had a swivel joint at the waist. I used the PoC Flash belt to cover up the gap, but it actually didn't need it, sanding it down and such made the gap look ok. I removed as much of the inside as possible with various dremel bits and sanded down/used styrene to make it look a little cleaner. I used some lego pieces for the chest articulation, glued em in place on the chest and used a Iron Man Whiplast chest heavily dremeled and backed with styrene as the chest front. The hoses going everywhere are just fodder crap I glued in place. The only real sculpting on the torso is the shoulders/neck area. That was just kneadanite i sanded and dremeled down once it set. Not the easiest stuff to work with while gooey like chewed gum but it takes sanding pretty well. I think i prefer epoxy sculpt more though. The chest cannon was a few pieces of guns and styrene. The weapon effects stay in place with a needle I heated up and drove into the plastic pieces so they can be switched out.

This looks amazing! I know it is from about 4 years ago, and that it was one of your early customs, but you should be quite proud of the end results on this one!

Oh, neato, a resurrected thread of my customs! Just an FYI, I put all my customs up for sale. Mr. Overkill here was the first to go, but if you like any of my other stuff, send me a message. I've got around 150 to sell!
