I'm working on putting together the full set of original 1982 Red Shadows characters. I am not usually very good at custom figures, but I was really happy with the way these first two came out.
More to come

First up is my Red Shadows Skeletron. It's simply a repainted Star Wars figure, but it came out nice.

Next we have the Kraken. This took some effort as I had to crack a 25th chest open for the first time and swap out limbs with the Lizard from the Amazing Spider-man line.
Note, I originally planned on using a Bossk head, but ended up really liking the way the Lizard looks here. Amazingly enough, he is still fully articulated. BFF:

They look great..if you ever get around to getting a Dremel the top part of Kraken's thigh could be thinned a bit to match better, but other than that well done, and they look great! You have a solid custom start, and you'll only get better.

Excellent work, they look great man. I really like how Kraken turned out, and the Skeleton looks very creepy cool. I look forward to seeing more.

Love it. I've got a whole set of Custom Red Shadows including the DDP guys (I like new characters). I don't have Kracken b/c it's a little too Sci Fi for my Joe tastes, but yours is awesome. I have that same SW droid to update my Skeletron.
