Most of these were put together as part of a challenge over at Joe Customs, but I'm continuing to round out the main players at the very least.
My inspiration covers all forms of depictions for these characters, pulling ideals from the serials, the old strips, the movie, new comics, and so on. In some cases it's entirely my own interpretation. Flash: Dale: Ming: Ming with Klytus his security minister is the attached pic Prince Barin and an Arborian Soldier And for good measure, crossing over classic Buck Rogers into this verse (somehow)

That Dale may be one of the best customs I've ever seen.

hey thanks! Yeah making these takes me back to finding the old black and white serials on TV early on a Saturday morning. I'm getting pretty invested in the project and can see really fleshing out the whole world.

Fantastic! Dale looks like... Carrie-Ann Moss? At least in the face. What head sculpt did you use on her? I like the figure a lot! I also like the Ming. He has a very Max Von Sydow look! Great work, as always!

Thanks guys!
Todd - Dale is a Padme head with Black Widow hair. Pretty sure Ming is a Max Von Sydow head sculpted by Slayer back in the day

thanks. classic Flash Gordon - not as much the 80s movie version - is the source for so much of modern sci-fi. And you can see how many ways it influenced Lucas for Star Wars.
Finished up Dr. Zarkhov last night. Looking at the pic, I still have some touch up to do, but mostly there.

Nice work I love it when someone makes customs of characters that don't really get many toy lines.
