    A few Marvel bad guys; Red Ghost, Hydroman & Carnage

    Had some extra time on my hands and started back to do some more Marvel bad guys. I started off with this classic Marvel villain. Some of you might remember the Red Ghost and his "super apes"
    I only have his Gorilla. Still looking for an idea for the chimp and orangatang.

    I made this suit. The head is some old guy that I had to cut and style his hair. I got him from someone who got him and the body off CTVTs. Can't beat their cheap stuff.

    I think I am finally starting to get the hang of making my own suits. I tried to give him a baggy red snowmobile type suit which he appears to wear with leather boots and gloves. I think I came close with the supplies I could find.






    Of course, you can't beat the classic Spidey bad guy, Hydro man.
    Found the plastic base from some Marvel Hydro man plastic toy from the 90s. IT made a nice little base to a pretty easy and boring looking villain.
    The hair sculpt is my creation.




    Last but not least, an easy custom. I "took in" a Famous Covers Carnage and got the suit to fit a 8" Mego body. I corked the head on a CTVT's head that I sacrificed. I posed him next to my Venom to show that he is now 8"

                No it is not felt. It looks like that because all the lose white hairs are falling off the fur collar. Once that stops and I clean it up and take another picture it will look better.

                For the red I used a stretchy type red tee shirt material. Took a lesson from one of my customizer heroes. Won't use any names unless he wants to talk about it on here. The material seemed to work with this character and it was easy to sew together.
