Yes, and sometimes I cringe. I would actually like to redo all of the Bionic 6, Bravestarr, Centurions and Thundercats, but that isn't realistic as the amount of time and money it would take me would be insane.
Even in this case I know if I sat down and resculpted this mask I could do it better as I learned several things as I was doing it. Let's say I had less than no idea what I was doing years ago when I started and my first custom are still "tacky" feeling b/c I used the wrong paints. No sanding of joints or prep work just slapped some paint on and off we went...so yeah I feel like I've improved dramatically, but still have a long ways to go. IF you decide to revisit a group, centurions FTFW! They’re just took cool man.

Haha, I’m very much aware and I’m not happy about it! Stop making them look so cool!
These are seriously some of the best pictures of action figures, repeating myself but just love seeing all of these iconic characters that we never had scaled together growing up in a group like this. So much fun to see how different they all are but how you did an awesome job on each look. Quote:

Like you said, we are definitely our own worst critics....totally being honest though when I say I’m continually impressed with how you’ve been able to make such awesome versions of all of these classic 80’s icons.

The other battle would be epic, but I'm giving the edge to the side with He-Man.

Oh wow! Great shots. He-Man and Mer-Man would win. In my verse Skeletor and his warriors are bad ass not chumps like on the toon.
