Awww hell yah! Thats fantastic axe. Maybe make the guy from the n64 game next?

Fantastic execution Ax! Is that an Arnold head? There's a good amount of detail and such an imposing figure; true to the character.

Count Dracula looks wicked!

Man, I'd like to, but I don't know how far down the rabbit hole I can afford to go.

Yeah, it's an Arnie cast from Spartan, the story of why it's now Simon being for another time.

Yeah, the details are more important for me when using BFS parts since there's a limited library and you really want each piece to feel like its own thing.

Wow, that looks great! Ironically enough, I'm currently working on some Castlevania customs myself and have the same torso combo set aside for Simon lol. I haven't made up my mind on whether to use the elf lower torso or the Jean Brothers lower torso (Which would require some modification) yet. This makes a strong case for the elf lower.

Wow! Ax, I want a whole Castlevania line from you now! That looks factory made with the paint work and the parts choice is superb! Plus amazing set photos to amplify the awesome! So cool!

Just depends on how much work you want to do, I guess. Can't wait to see it. I mentioned to Flint Rocks that this character leaves a lot of room for interpretation with all his iterations over the years.

I'd love to do a whole line if I could afford it.

That’s a badass Simon Belmont! I had the song in my head from the second I laid eyes on the first picture!

Love the build, ton of cool parts all seamlessly pulled together to give him such a unique look. Then your paint job, really love the gold and gun metal trim accents, then that color for the boot hair....so great! The Arnold head works perfectly for him and his weapon layout is killer!

And facing off with Drac in your diorama! Haha, there goes the song blaring in my head again! Love it!
