    Most challenging custom ever?

    Simple question.
    What has been your most challenging custom ever?

    I think I am making that one today. My daughter has been after me for Colossus (The metal guy from the X-men movie she calls him) for quite awhile.

    I hunted down a 9" Famous covers Mister Sinister for the base and thought making the special boots would be easy. WRONG!!!
    This one is going to be my most challenging figure ever.

    What is yours? I am curious..

      My Captain Canuck custom is hardest for me to date.I've been working on him for over a year now and still not overly happy yet.

          The MarvelMan I just finished up, and a Hellboy I was finally happy with.

              The Boba Fett I just finished recently took over 4 years for me to work through. That would probably be the toughest I've done.

                      Fighting American. The sewing was murder and it was my first custom that I made the entire body.

                          I would have to say the Flash. It was tricky sculpting that pointy Mask(and getting it thin enough)over the Bruce Wayne Head.

                              I would love to see this! I went with a Charlie Flatt sculpt.

                                                  Probably my very first custom, Red X from Teen Titans. Because he was my first one and everything was new to me. He's about to get a make over very shortly too

                                                      My RM Hawkman took a lot of work for me. It's the hardest one I've done yet.

                                                          That Flash is incredible! How did you make the mask? Is it removable?
