Michael Myers

[artskull]

Since discovering the Mego Museum, one of my first ideas for custom figure was Michael Myers from Halloween. I thought he'd be a good "easy" starting point. Shatner Kirk head courtesy of Trappy (sliced off the sideburns and painted it gray for base), jumpsuit thanks to Theressa and a Zica body from Craig's two-for-one sale. The knife is cut from popcicle stick using POTA knife as template for size. Maybe I'll be finished by Halloween 2012…

I love it. I wish I had something that resembled talent. I would love a Michael Myers Mego!

I had absolutely ZERO knowledge of custom toys until stumbling upon the Mego Museum. The custom section has provided a lot of knowledge and inspiration. Only tools I've used for this custom are an X-Acto knife and acrylic paint.

I do plan on trying my hand at it. Scared as hell. LOL. Since joining these forums, my brain is on overload. LOL

I hear ya and I'm with ya… talk about creative overload since seeing all the custom works here! Too many ideas, too little time…

Looks like a great start!!! The main thing is to enjoy the process.

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback. It's been fun to jump into the customizing pool. Also did up this backer card using the Cast-A-Way cards available in the Museum...

[Toyman_Chris]

OH MY GOD! I want one of those backers!! Amazing!

Looking good so far

Another backer card idea using the Cast-A-Way backer card template… Photoshop chop shop using the Japanese movie poster graphic…

[artskull]

Since my Michael Myers isn't "officially" MEGO, I figured I should go the knock-off AHI route for another backer card idea…

[Toyman_Chris]

I think that last one is definitely my favorite! Thanks again!

Looking very good indeed and those backer cards look superb, can you do one for my Jason Voorhees?

Yes, no problem. Shoot me a PM. Always happy to help, especially with the "Mad Monsters"...
