Thread: My first completed custom...Red Skull

    My first completed custom...Red Skull

    Well here it is, my first custom. Any Feedback appreciated!



    I got the head from Doc Mego at Megomeet... I have no idea of it's origin other than that. Body and boots (cut down Klingon) are also from Doc.
    Hands are CTVT.
    Sewing and paint by me. I don't know why I thought this would be an easy starting project. I guess it did get my sewing skills flowing again! The uniform is not nearly as polished as I hoped for, and I did get some smutz on his thigh (which I now need to go clean better...wanted to get pics up tonight), but oh well.
    I also modified the head with the snazzy cigarette holder... I find it inconceivable that Red Skull would not be a smoker.

    Really nice especially for a first one. BTW, the head is a shrink of the FC Red Skull.

    I would call the the paint job Polyester-esque. The detail is absolutely fabulous!

    Terrific! Love the addition of the Sideshow(?) medal.

    The uniform is a great variation, instead of the traditional coverall.
