    DO you just repaint the figures, or did you make a mold and replicate them? Are the parachutes original or did you make those?
    I think I need to make some.

        All I do is buy loose AHI parachute figures and sculpt over them with epoxy. The real figures are crude at best so it's kind of fun copying the style.

        The parachutes originally were a green "air bag" I had in a parcel with bat stickers on it, for the mummy I switched to a puke green table cloth. They wouldn't actually work.

        What I need to do is resin copy a "buck" so I don't have to duke it out on ebay so much.

          How many Tana leaves do you think Kharis has to ingest to be able to parachute? I hope it's not over nine, because we all know he goes Bat-crap with nine!!!

          I love these things!

            I searched, but couldn't find a link to your other monster customs. Were they posted, too? These look like fun! They fit perfectly into 70's rack toy culture.

                    Looks perfect. Considering all the other crazy stuff that was made I'm surprised these weren't actually made.
