    Jake Homeyguy, a custom for my niece!!

    Howdy all! Been awhile since I had time to work on or post any custom/kit-
    bashed Megos. Working 65+hrs. a week sucks! Anyway I wanted to post this
    little fellow my niece and I did. I have a little story to tell, so I will be getting
    a little long winded, so please bear with me My eight year old niece
    Kensey is a really sweatheart of a kid, she owns my heart bigtime! Kensey
    has ADHD and some other learning disabilites, so at time dealing with her can
    be tough! For some odd reason she really loves her crusty old uncle and likes
    to spend time with him I always try to teach here new things to keep
    her attention focused. She likes to draw and paint, read comic books, and she
    really digs her uncle's Megos. Since my Megos are basically for display, and
    Kensey can be pretty destructive at times, she wanted one of her own,
    "guys," as she refers to Megos as. I laid out a bunch of parts for her to
    choose from, and took her to Lauries site to choose a head since her guy
    had to have a custom one! After we got this fellow together, I told her
    she had to name him aand give him a story. Jake Homeyguy is his name. I
    think the homeyguy part came from the little homie figures, I use to do
    custom homies before I did Megos. Jake? No idea! Jake's story? He is a hero
    plain and simple! Jake fights the bad guys and that ia all that matters!
    Thanks for looking and enjoy;
    Wayne

    HEAD: Tidyboy from Laurie. I painted his flesh, Kensey
    did his eyes and hair.

      Cool to see what the kids come up with.
