I like making more obscure characters as some take more in the way of creativity to finish. Mostly because there's no pictures of other people's renditions to help you along. So, I like coming up with ways to do them. Some also just seem so simple I couldn't figure out why they hadn't been done. Too obscure? Or simply too disliked? Gargantua here is one of the simpler projects, save for one particular thing. His head. I really wanted to use a Roadpigg head, but every one I found was just too small. Now, for the character himself, I learned about him through Guardians of the Galaxy. He was a member of Doc Ock's Masters of Evil briefly during the Infinty War. He was originally a SHIELD scientist who did what every comic scientist does, he tested an experiment on himself and subsequently turned into this. If you don't know him from his two issue appearance in Guardians, you may know him from Defenders as he was a recurring villain of theirs for a little while.
Now, after I got the body all put together, I took up the simple task of painting the orange and blue. The tedious part was adding the black lines. Such a slow process with quite a few touchups to thin the line and keep them fairly straight. After a while of searching for a head I finally caved and grabbed a Hulk head to use. I sanded down the hair, then sculpted up the full mask over it. He really shouldn't look so fierce, but he's still probably my favorite for this week. Recipe: Body - MU Skaar Lower Legs - MU Thing Head - MU Hulk

Sorry, don't know him. But he reminds me of the Maxx.

Picked it up off EBay. Just search Clear Flight Stand. It only cost $5, but it's starting to show its price. Gonna have to pick up a new one soon. But it's lasted me a little under a year, so that's not too bad for $5.

If you repainted him, he could be Darkseid. Let me repeat, Darkseid.
Love your off the wall heroes, man!
