    Metamorpho and Stingaree

    I chose to finish my Metamorpho which I had wanted to finish for a long time. And, I thought I would add one of his arch villains, Stingaree.

    Here is a pic of them both:



    Here is a pic of my customs:



    Metamorpho is in a suit designed by Daremo and slightly modified by me; head is a 9" Martian Manhunter head shrunk with his brow filed down; hands from a DC Direct Metamorpho from a few years back; authentic T2 Mego body.

    Stingaree is in a suit designed by me (Thanks to Daremo for the assist with the "S" belt buckle); cape made from nylon kite material with an elastic strap around the neck a la Mego Shazam!; head is a 1995 Spider-Man the Animated Series Scorpion enlarged to scale; Dr Mego green boots; original T2 Mego body with green hands.

    Hope you all like.

    Austin

                Sweet customs Austin!!!
                I really like the suit work on those and the head paints are great.

                  Awesome job Austin! Metamorpho rocks but Singeree realy kills ! The "trying to crap out a fish-hook " expression on his face perfectly captures his character!
                  Great Figure!

                  Best,

                    I agree, Stingaree is just friggin amazing, dig that tail a lot, but where is it attached to? The cape hangs between the body and the tail

                        These are some of the best customs I've seen here yet. My favorite quality in any custom is whenever you can say "it looks like Mego made them back in the 70's".....

                        Great work Austin.

                          If somebody wants them I would be more than happy to fulfill their request. Just let me know.

                            I cut a hole in the cape so the tail could go through and lay nicely. KLaying the cape over the tail did not look good at all so this was the best option I could think of. Very observant Thomas.
