HI,
It's been awhile since i've posted anything. Had to take some time from customs to expand my business.
(still had time for some simple mods, conversions of Retro Action's to new bodies
I've been trying to get to a Dick Tracy for awhile. And I had some spare parts lying around that I tried for a Blank, too.

The Dick Tracy is from a head purchased off eBay and painted by me. Not been able to find them here on the forums, but I like their work a lot.
He is sporting a suit jacket from the EMCE Zombie kit, pants from...somewhere I can't remember, and a tie from CTVT that has been altered with tape until I can get some nice painted stripes on it. I am working on sewing a yellow trench for him, but my lack of a sewing machine and inability to sew a straight line makes it a very slow process. Add in the inherited arthritis, and well hopefully Tracy doesn't get chilly anytime this year

The Blank is the head of Starsky with a face sculpted on with Moldable Plastic. I then painted it to match the flesh neck. I had originally intended to make the face removable by imbedding a magnet into the mask and gluing one inside the head. I am still considering this, and scarring up Starsky to match the comic Strip Blank. Unlike the movie, it's a man and not Madonna. His clothes come from extras I had around the house. And the head is the one from BBP's 4th Doctor.

Next up on my slow crawl of customizing is Space Spectre!
