This is Tex Hex, in cartoon style. Always shocked me how different were the figures from the cartoon! and by, relatively, later times. I am usually 95 % inclined to the cartoon, and this is no exception ;) . This is a short modification, not a complete custom job, just enough to get the general feel without having to sand, drill and turn it to a job of weeks rather than days.
Here I post the custom figure I made for the Instagram Summer Swap (previously Fwoosh Summer Swap)! Was tough to choose a character, I went with one of the most obscure, Noob Saibot. Sculpted from head to toe over a wrestler figure, I did some energy effects for him. I hope he has found a good home :) .
Finally time to post one of my creations for my own collection. Done
about 7 years ago, restored due to some accident about 5, and now posted
:) .
He is the god of defence & peace, and brother of the
god of attack and war. He appeared briefly in the Kinnikuman (ultimate
muscle) cartoon. I had the extra head of Goldman, and so I did his
custom, and having him it was only matter of time to do his brother! as
extra, I have made him a shield, as the sword he is given to fight, it
would be something he would never carry normally. Also made him a book.
Most complex was chroming his mask!

This is my latest version of Guilty, more poseable, trying to get a better likeness to the character.
Boosted Gear, from the manga-anime High School DXD. This is my latest finished custom happily received by it's new owner. I was asked to do this very complex character. I did a long research, and found that the Berserk figure from SH Figuarts recently released was the best base for the job, more over he already had a manga-anime vibe to it. I got rid of all the extra bits, made basic parts of molten plastic, wings out of outdoors DIY rigid hard clear plastic, and then epoxy sculpting all over, and whiskers from a Shiryu from saint seiya myth cloth. Tail obtained from a Radamanthys figure, adequately modified. Wings are removable, and it features a good few removable hands. Wings are massively heavy, and was challenging to make him stand upright with such weight. Now I need to see sometime the anime or manga, as I have grown curious of it :). 5th pic shows last minute minor modification making his inner robe more maroon.
