Ohzaru Celestial Super Saiyan God Blue Dragon Ball Super Custom Figure

Behold! here comes the enormous, giant, ape of the apes, the sacred one! so amazing, he has not appeared yet in the Dragon Ball Super series!

This custom has a loooooooooooooong history. Yes. It started as a random hulk arriving to my hands, 8 years ago. It was quite fast, and I knew it, I had to transform into the Dragon Ball Oohzaru, the great ape. But it also came to my mind, I will be spending tons and tons of epoxy/sculpting material, at that time I was short of cash as to throw it away in such a project. And so it occurred to me; all the spare epoxy I mixed, instead of letting it dry, contaminating, or extending the customizing time forever with new projects, I would add all that to make the fur of our monkey friend. All the surplus epoxy mixed, went into him. Bit by bit the smooth Hulk skin became covered with epoxy, rock solid fur. You can see the WIP pic; there is 5 different epoxy types, all the ones I have used up to date.

Of course, it came to an end; this year no more fur was needed, and so I started properly sculpting the head, and making a tail out of thermoplastic. I have applied layers and layers of different blues to get a realistic appearance, to highlight everything, a bit in the SH Figuarts style.

But then it came to me, it was boring to make just a regular brown Ohzaruu. Golden? maybe, but not special enough. And so, even if I don't specially like all this Super Saiyan God idea of Dragon Ball Super (nor the series, to be honest), the idea seemed ultra cool to me.

And so here it is. My longest time-spanning custom definitely. But I could hardly be prouder of the result. I will now have to start a similar project for all my surplus sculpting epoxy!!!

P.S: Bottle is for comparison purposes. Remember do not drive while drinking or customizing!

Kraven the Hunter (Spiderman Enemy) Marvel Icons custom

Here it is Kraven the Hunter, made in 12 inch Marvel Icons style with a Bobby Lashley Maximum Aggression. The toughest job of this custom was sculpting all the fur on his shoulders, man, I nearly wasted a full pot of sculpting in it. At first I didn't modify the mouth, but in the end I enlarged it to give a better expression, as it can be seen in the first pic.

Ghost Rider with Hellbike Marvel Icons custom

Here a break of from so many Saint Seiya figures, with a Marvel Icons 12 inch custom, yes, I know I'am quite mad to even start to consider to attempt this custom, but here it is. A fully poseable 12 inch Ghost Rider figure with Hellbike. As all my other 12 inch custom, it is made over a Maximum Aggression Wrestling figure (I think I'am beginning to extint them from earth) and the bike is made over a Honda 1/6 repsol competition bike, that I disattached all the hull, windscreen, petrol tank, etc, and made out of blister plastic all the chasis. 

About the wheels, hours of adding epoxi and a plastic sheet to cover the empty spaces of the middle. The chain was home made and the face of Ghost Rider sculpted from scratch, the flames of his head out of Johnny Storm 12 inch movie figure. The seat is made with cloth and cotton.

Green Goblin Spider-Man Marvel Icons custom

Here is another of my 12" Spiderman villains, Green Goblin. Made with a Elijah Burke wrestler, had to sculpt all the sort of chain mail, and his goblin head too. Pumpkins are sculpted over the Madjack pre-marvel ones, and the glider has been made from scratch, from a old marker and folder.

Ultimo Iron Man Marvel Legends custom

This is Ultimo, character I discovered seeing the 1994 Iron Man cartoon. To my surprise, it is a character that has appeared many times in the comics, and I thought it would make a cool and impressive action figure.

As usually, using a Wrestling 12 inches, made the head from scratch, sculpted feet, knee pads, chest, hands, and added tubes. Hope you like it.

Mad Jack 12 inch Marvel Icons Custom

After lots of work here it comes Madjack Marvel Icons style, standing 12 inches tall (a bit more with the air glider). It is based as in the ToyBiz Spiderman Classic figure, but with normal pumpkins instead of the oversized ones that ToyBiz made.

The head was completely sculpted from scratch, shoulder pads made out of a table tennis ball, pumpkins based on the Pre-ML Madjack, and glider made out of different junk I had lying around. All the rest is sculpting and some foamy.

Electro Spiderman Marvel Icons custom

Here is Electro, made in 12 inches/Marvel Icons style. All electric effects were made removable and were cut out of transparent plastic.

Molten Man Spiderman Marvel Icons custom

This is Molten Man, the classic Spiderman foe, done in a amazing 12 inches custom Marvel Icons style. Note that the last pic shows a unfinished version.

Puma Marvel Icons Custom Spiderman 12 inch

Here is Puma, a classic villain/friend of Spiderman, that is my first Marvel Icons custom (I've made several 12 inch giants but to fit in Marvel Legends or DC Classics line). It is quite more difficult than doing a giant, as normally giants have easier details than a regular character. This is the first one of a series Spiderman foes and friends in 12 inch.

Recipe; made over CM Punk, with Elijah Burke and Triple H hands, Grey Hulk feet, X-23 hairs to make the fur in his feet and all the rest looots of sculpting.

Note that the last pic was made before some changes were applied, I only included it to show the height of the figure respect a ML.
