                      Thanks so much Austin! It means a lot coming from one of the best in the game! Here's the recipe:

                      Ingredients:

                      1) Marvel Legends Sauron BAF arms/wings and torso as well. Great eye catch by Dwayne & Joe!
                      2) FTC Man-Bat head sculpt & muscular torso.
                      3) Type S torso, pelvis and leg thighs.
                      4) New Mego Screaming Werewolf legs (could have been Mugato's as well Joe)
                      5) Dremel with lots of bits
                      6) Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric MEDIUM GRAY spray paint.
                      7) A lot of patience & time

                      Instructions:

                      1) Split the FTC muscular torso in two halves (chest and back) at seam with Dremel cutting disk or X-acto knife.
                      2) Dremel the Sauron BAF torso to save just the arms attaching mechanism and to fit such mechanism inside both FTC torso halves.
                      3) The FTC Muscular torso needs to be further modified to be attached to the Type S modified body.
                      4) The Type S modified body consists of a Type S body with pelvis and attached torso and thighs. The torso and thighs needs to be cut though.
                      The torso needs to be cut 1/4" just above the waist ball to allow mechanical attachment (with screws) to the FTC muscular torso. The thighs need to be cut right at the middle.
                      5) The New Mego Screaming werewolf legs need to be cut at the middle of the thighs as well and should be sized to mate with the cut thighs from the Type S body and still remain around 8 inch tall.
                      6) Attach the Sauron BAF arms mechanism in place to the muscular torso back plate using screws.
                      7) Attach the Type S torso ball/pelvis/upper thighs assembly in place to the muscular back plate using screws as well.
                      8) Attach the Screaming Werewolf lower thigh, calf & foot to the Type S upper thigh using set screws. Yes, It swivels at the the thighs as well!
                      9) Attach the FTC muscular torso chest plate to the back plate enclosing all attachments made. Use clear epoxy resin now.
                      10) Spray paint
                      11) Plug the arms to the mechanical attachment through the torso arm holes.
                      12) Allow to dry and "dress" with FTC light blue pnats and belt.

                      My primary language is Spanish not English so my apologies for any unclear instruction(s) or incorrectly stated, but I believe you now have a better idea.

                      Feel free to send me a PM on any further clarification. Have fun!

                          I had been wondering about using those Sauron wings:

                          Beautiful work you have done here. Wonderful. Simply wonderful work. Arguably, that's one pricey piece you have there. You have designed it well.
