Happy 25th Anniversary Hellboy!!

[thunderbolt]

Been working on this for a while, a few pics today and more this weekend when I wrap up a few more toys for him. Headsculpt all original. Right Hand of Doom all original and all Craft Foam!! Pistol is a reworked mini cap gun, belts from various parts, the gun belt is something I found at a thrift store, the western motif seems to go with Hellboy's childhood in the 50s. Coat homemade from a old workshirt and dyed with coffee and demon's blood. Emblem and belt buckle from LaserMego (thanks!!)







BTW 3/23 is the official Hellboy day at comicshops and the anniversary of the first issue of Seed of Destruction

It's a great figure--expressive, poseable, detailed. Nice job!

Great Job as usual. You do such awesome work. I really enjoy the visions that you have for the figures. Nice Work!

Sweet custom.

I saw Hellboy at the theater April 12th 2004.

I know the date because my wife went into labor there.

AFTER the movie we went to the hospital.

April 13th Lillian was born,

2005 Lily went to her first Mego Meet as an infant.

2017 Lily made Hellboy and Abe customs at her 12th Mego Meet (she has been to all but MM 2006). -I'll try to post a pic soon.

2019 Hellboy reboot hits theaters EXACTLY 15 years after we saw Hellboy and Lily decided she was a star. We will be there.

Fantastic. I’ve really missed seeing your customs. You are a wizard with craft foam. I desperately tried to make it work like that when I was doing customs.

[thunderbolt]
