    Inglourious Basterd.... The Red Skull

    Haven't been on here in a while, other intrest have kept me away. About a year ago I was rearranging stuff and all my custom stuff I thought was lost. I thought it was gone to either goodwill or thrown out by accident. Well to my surprise I found it a couple of days ago and decide to whip out this guy. I may put him up for auction later, til then.....Enjoy!








    And a wonderful box by Toyroom!

    Excellent work. I've never liked the Red Skull, but this one just pops. Terrific design work on the trim and details. You should really consider making more customs.
    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

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

                  Red skull sort of gives me the creeps. Yours is no exception. By that I mean you did a great job. Well done. Love the details, like that ciggy.

                        It looks amazing!!

                        But- kinda funny, in the first picture the strap on the wrist gauntlet in front of his pistol holster make it look a little like he's holding a purse or shopping bag on his forearm!

                            One of my favorite villains! I love the cigarette holder with the cotton at the end to symbolize smoke.
                            I have my Red Skull in a leather uniform and you gave me and idea. I'll give you credit for sure. That's simply amazing my friend!!

                            Extra thoughts... (I apologize for stepping on your thread but I love your figure!)
                            This is how it should be the Nazis in the Red Skull's character. You did well! People who tried to retcon the Red Skull in the movies with all the Hydra crap didn't capture the real and original evil of the Red Skull.
                            The movie directors (probably had something to do with Disney) feared maybe the Nazis being too soon, scary or too propaganda but I remember Saturday cartoon with the Red Skull on Amazing Spiderman and friends talking about the Nazis and regaining control of the world again someday.
                            Don't change a character's history or you will puss-if-fy them. Just my opinion.
