    Custom of the Week - 11/28/2011

    This is the time of year when the CotW queue starts to fill. All the good little customizers are holed-up for the winter, and the forum brims with a multitude of awesome figures from many genres. Captain Mego comes out of his hole, and the construction industry goes on hiatus until the weather breaks. The air is cool and crisp.........OK, enough of that crap.

    This week the spotlight falls on piecemaker's Brick Mantooth diorama. It's Brick in some cool, casual duds hanging with a chick in a wicker chair swing. I need say no more.







    See the original thread here Brick.... The Swinger! - Mego Talk and remember to check back each week to see where the spotlight shines next.

      Wow,thanks alot!!! I was really floored when i checked out this weeks Cotw and it was mine.I really appreciate the kudos on it,it was a real bear to make and it turned out a heck of alot better than i thought it would.The diorama is still a work in progress and will be for awhile yet,but i have made a little more progress.Heres a couple pics of the 'loft' area looking a little less barren,but still not done and i still have a whole lower floor to do.

              Thanks everyone! HardyGirl,i made the couch and ottoman from scratch.The chair and footstool was a generic 'Barbie' scale accessory,slightly modified,painted and covered in leather.I'm glad you guys like what i've done so far,stay tuned,more of that 70s goodness coming on the lower level.

                Man, that new pic is even better. Where is the lever that pops the heart shaped bed out of the wall? Congrats on the custom o' the week.

                          That sure takes me back to the '70's!! Almost like a time machine.

                            What issue of playboy is that? Brick says he just reads it for the articles. It's really reference material for future conquests!
