    Barry Allen's Rhinoplasty.........

    Hi Gang,
    Got a wee bit tired of my Mattel's Flash Jimmy Durante look, so i decided to give him a nose job w/my Dremel tool. Here he is in all his nosey glory. Pictured below... Flash and friends (some other customs i work on). All paints by Megospidey. What do you guys think? I know Barry's happy.

    Barry Allen....The Flash has a much better profile now. Rotocast heads are not Dremel friendly.



    My kids say that i'm a Surgeon/Barber with my Dremel.


    Sorry for the flash of the camera shinning of his face......


    Also Made a new mask with slits for my Lone Ranger...........................



    The kids and i decided to pick another head for our Shazam figure; the consensus amongst my kids was that the Mattel's shazam head profile looked like something out of Dr.Seuss (no pun intended to those of you who love that head and luv Dr.Seuss).


    Coming from Galoobe (pun intended)...The Lone Ranger two color costume set. Costumes by B.L


    Lastly, Here's a custom i made of the (2) funniest people i know. My ex-father in-law Eddie (seated in backseat) and his brother Tingo (Driving the bike). I'm currently making a stop motion movie.....featuring these two characters (believe me they are exactly that in real life....funny characters) i love them alot. Additionally, had a great time (PM'ing back and forth) with Megospidey when he was painting the tingo head.....the kids and i were cracking up as he showed us some prelimanary pictures (Thanks Derek).

    Noteworthy: At one time they both aspired to be Circus Clowns.

    Eddie and Tingo...............




    The real Tingo...........

    The real Eddie...........


    Trivia: Can anyone guess which head i used to create the Tingo head? If correct answer is given....you'll win a free Mattel Shazam figure (nude of course, i took the costume) and a Mattel Black Adam head. Here's a small clue,...I had alot of reshaping to do with the old Dremel tool. In case of tie, names will go into hat and one winner shall be selected randomly. Good Luck to all. Major Kudos to MegoSpidey and Brian Leitner on this project.
    Thanks for viewing Museum. Ivaniski

    Lots of good work here (that Lone Ranger is awesome), but the Eddie and Tingo figures are the best! Very, very cool!

          Yeah, I hear what you're saying. It's almost like the 12" Mego Captain America. Unsavable.

            Nice work on Flash. Looks much better. What head did you use for Captain Marvel. Really like it. And I could just stare at that CR Superman all day. Love it.

              Is it a heavily modified Friar Tuck recast?
              “As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery… we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, attachment, fear and suspicion, while love and compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the sources of peace and happiness.” - The Dalai Lama

                LOL. I'll have to show my kids this tonight as they have always complained how Mattel's Flash figure had a big nose. I was fine with the nose, but ever since they saw Flash they continue to comment about it.

                  Those are some great customs. I'd say you use a Captain Kirk for the head of Tingo. Looks like in the area around the eyes to me.

                    The Tingo head looks like the bank job clown mask the Joker wore.

                            Winner is: CaptainTrenchCoat.......Congratulations!!!
                            Goody bag headed your way.

                            Now, Tingo's face is finally revealed........

                            Actually, Tingo is a Fusion of hard work and a labor of love, manifested by incorporating......(At this point you guys are probably saying, What the He** is he talking about).
                            Resculpted by me (using dremel, and painted by Megospidey). Tingo is really derived from Heath Ledgers' Joker using clown mask as a "Bank Robber" in movie "Dark Knight".







                            Upon completion of this project Tingo told me..."Hey, that clown really looks like me...aint i cute". All i had to say to Tingo is ....Bless your little heart Tingo, Bless your little
                            heart!

                              Nice job on that Flash. You should tame that gloss a bit on his head with some modge matte. I left my Flash alone but I have that Shazam/Captain Marvel figure coming in the mail. The first thing I am going to be changing is that goofy head. I have no idea why Mattel thought that thing would be accectable? He looks so wrong on so many levels.
