    New Year's custom resolutions

    Since we already have the look back thread, I figured we needed the look forward thread. Me, I plan to continue the JLA line I started, some Hellboy villains, Spider-Man, more JSA members. I'd really like to take a shot at casting this coming year, too.

    I'd like to finish some customs that need a litle detailing, like my Scarlet Spider that still has flesh colored hands; putting claws on my wolverine; better horns on my Loki.
    My Dr. Strange was so bad, I've never posted a picture. So, I'd will be putting some work into him.

        Spend more time making customs.
        Finish some Indie characters and make a few Golden Agers.
        Don't be sorry. How would you know? You've been watching MTV all your life.

            Kingdom warrior;an Elvis Mego......something I've been wanting to do for the longest.
            I'd love one as well...
            I hope to finish off my Capt Canuck and then do a few Alpha flight customs love the Canadian X-men.
            A couple more Trek customs and a few....Westerns,I just got a few heads from russ so I can't wait to get started on those.
            Then I hope to get a couple of boxes from Anthony for some of the customs that I already have.Should be a busy 2008...

                My plan is to upgrade some of my older customs, finish off some various versions I want to make of characters I have already made, i.e. new versions of Doc Ock and Mysterio and to finally finish off my custom Defenders.

                    Well with our new figures hitting fairly early in '08, I am not sure if I'll have much free time to do many. But I do know that Jason and I will have some spiffy new resources for the rest of yous mooks to utilyze

                    I might not make much but I have a feeling we will keep you guys nice and busy...

                      I will be releasing a wave of 5 figures (Top Secret), all at once, along with an additional set of 5 figures (Top Secret) to follow. Alot of work, i know, But I already have 3 out of 5 of my first wave nearly done, so they should be ready within the next month or so. I also have an Orion custom 95 percent complete, look for him very soon. Looking forward to seeing everyone else's new work this year, I know you won't let me down

                        Thats what I'm waiting for.Somebody else to get the head done....
                        Then let the rest of us know so we can buy it in scale.

                          I have to re-do the Escape Zira swing jacket with a better fabric so it doesn't swallow her. It's too bulky for the scale at the moment, and it needs to hang better--and I need to change out the snaps with tinier snaps.

                          I want to re-do the Zira green and dark brown undergarment from POTA because I think the green part of the jacket needs to be wider and the dark brown undergarment could be a little longer--plus I found perfect material for the sleeves that is more film-accurate.

                          Finally finish my English saddle. Eventually finish my western saddle and sell that to somebody who would use it.

                          My MO is to just make spectacular POTA customs. I want to be able to stand tall among the other talented customizers.

                          Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness

                          To do list:
                          1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
                          1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;

                            I have like 22 customs that are anywhere from 1/2 to 1/3 finished that I would like to finish. Is that good English? Anyway, 20 of them are original customs and 2 will be my take on established characters.Now I just have to get off my lazy *** and get it done

                              That's cool But the Best sculpt I ever saw of Elvis were the Graceland 1984 figures I was thinking of getting a cheap one and getting someone to shrink and recast it mego size.

                              I like all versions of Elvis but for my Mego I'd like the Jumpsuit version with cape..if I can get a Fist fighter body then he'd have Karate action
