    I would LOVE to see some too... I've wanted to make a Kirby-esque Demon (he was my first sculpt remolding disaster when I was young) for... wow... 20 years know. OMG. I just realized how long it's been. I guess I need to feel better about the rest of my finished to do list?

    I could never decide if I wanted to use a straight T2 with bodysuit or lose the purism and go with a modified hulk/T2 chest piece like my :Hellboy:

    I am working on some pants for a Kamandi, Last Boy on Earth who is just sporting a Thor head at the moment, and needs some Conan boots in blue... I'd like to get a suit silkscreened for a Ben Boxer to go with him.

        I'd love to make some New Gods customs, but I'd want to do some scratch sculpting. I need to practice (a lot!) first.
        Now, T-bolt is a 9" customizer, so this might not be as much of an issue for him, but for those who try to stick to 8", as close to Mego-style, etc, what kind of body would you use? The regular 8" female is way too small and skinny. How would you go about choosing a body that fits in well with the rest of the line, if your other customs are on traditional 8" vintage/repro bodies?

        Check out my customs!
