So these three are recently finished customs. I don't have names for them, so any input would be much appreciated
This first one is the closest I have to having a name, I'm considering just calling her Chameleon and being done with it. Sorry the pictures aren't better, my camera really didn't like this one The head is RoC Cover Girl, the body is 09' 5pk Baroness, the hands are RoC Baroness and the skirt is from resolute CC

This one was made of mostly spare parts. I have an alternate universe I idea for Cobra-La. Basically, rather then being a lost civilization of snake people with giant mutant bug bio-weapons, Cobra-La is more of a secret society, like the Hellfire Club in X-Men, and I want to redesign Globules , Pythona and Nemesis Enforcer. I started this custom with the redesign of NE in mind but I’m not so sure now
The head is a resolute trooper, the torso is rex lewis, the legs are RoC CC, and the Arms and Jacket are from Cade Skywalker

This last one was inspired by the head. I love the sculpt on the Sigel Dare head, and once it was removed from the imperial knight body, it had a very Victorian feel to it. So I set out to do a modern Victorian/Streampunk style character, the finished product isn’t exactly what I had envisioned but I am happy with the look of it.
The head is from Sigel Dare, the torso is Helix, the legs are Paris Pursuit Baroness, the Arms are from Rex Lewis, the skirt is from Serpentor

Nice customs. I think the NE that you made is pretty appropriate. Could the female character be your Joe-verse's Pythona?

Great work!
-Chameleon: sounds good. The vintage fig looks pretty much like that sans the skirt, so it's appropiate. -Guy dressed in black: Like it a lot. And the idea of a kind of secret "guild" is even better. But personally, this guy doesn't reminds me of NE...actually, i makes me think on a male realistic version of Pythona...or his brother ;) -Victorian chick: She has a victorian look, indeed. The plates look oriental, and the corset/boots look european...like she traveled the world training and learning. Why not Veronica Mars? ;) Or Victoria Mars (mars for the god of war)

First let me say that these customs are a work of art. The characters you have created have a very cohesive and well thought out look to them. In fact, I don't know if this was your intention, but they look great together and could all be part of a special team.
The top one looks like a gothic girl I used to date in highschool, back when I was a hardcore punk. I think you should give her a first and last name instead of a code name, something that sounds sinister. Valeria Blackheart, The second one screams assassin. I'm thinking something dark and simple: Death, Demon, Hellfire. The third one looks like she could be one of Destro's mercenaries, something that says "Medieval brutality" or a reference to ancient mythology. maybe : Gauntlet, saber, Hydra, Aries I go through this process whenever I create a new character, and I throw out a lot of lame names till I find one that fits, so bear with me, LOL. |

You have such a good eye for combining parts. Your customs are always really cool-looking and inspiring! I like how you essentially updated Chameleon there, with a fresh take that is still true to her original look. For the guy, maybe just name him Nemesis, and say he is the enforcer of the Cobra-La group. The third one, I am thinking it would be cool if she was some relative of Destro... or is that too cheesy? Sister? Ex wife? Heh heh.

That chameleon looks a bit like what I did with my Reso Baroness. I like the female ones best, but they are all nice. I like the use of the Serpentor skirt as well...that SW head is super nice I may have to get one now....just expensive as all heck for 1 head.
Nice job...
