    Juan Diego, just a simple Mego bandito!

    Hola! Here is another strange little fellow for your viewing pleasure. Juan Diego was not even a planned custom, he came about as visit by my younger sister. I had this CTVT body and King Arthur head sitting around, I originally planned to make a Super Frenchman who never surrenders I won an AJ cowboy suit on ebay, so I put it on to see what it looked like. My sister came for a visit saw it sitting next to my computer and said, " Hey thats Juan Diego, but he needs silver boots." I asked her who Juan Diego was and she said no one, he just looked like that is what his name should be! So began the creation! Boots and weird symbol on the holster are painted with acrylics, holster and pistols are CTVT, sombrero is from AC Moore, neckerchief is Marx with acrylic paint. Why silver boots? Cause silver is cool my sister said! Thanks for looking.

    awesome, this sounds so much like some thing that I would do, my sister and I always come up with silly things like this when we put our heads together. Those outside shots make it seem like Juan is out in the Ol' West aswell, some times making your own character up is better than basing your Mego on some one elses.

    nice job
