Here is my Chris Reeve/Clark Kent/Superman, My Sinestro (made him a long time ago but he just got a new paint job, and a Heath Ledger Joker head I just finished up today. Here ya go







    So what do you guys and gals think?

      That's looking pretty darn sweet. I haven't seen the before shots so I don't have anything to compare, but those look good, real good.
      I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

      If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

        First off Random Axe and BK, coming from you two those are awesome compliments, you two are amazing customizes! Here is the old Sinestro, he was one of the figure customs I made:


        sadly (kind of) this is the only picture I think I have of the Chris Reeve Superman I never cared for the way the paints looked so here he is

          Okay I can see the improvements now.

          You've added some depth and layers with some dry brushing/washes. One small suggestion for would be to add a little pink into your flesh tones. I've got a very specific formula I use for flesh, and pink is in the mix. Most of the craft store flesh paints are too pale by themselves. I mix a few colors into it to get a rich color. Games Workshop Dwarf flesh and elf flesh are great but expensive. I've had some decent results using ceramcoat and folk art paints mixed for maximum pigmentation.

          Keep posting your figures. You've got a good thing going. I'd like to see mroe.
