    Ben Grimm...THE THING!!!


    Finally got good picture weather outside, been raining for days. Head and hands from a movie Thing 12 inch figure. I resculpted the brow and jaw, adding teeth. Body is Urban Icons in a bodysuit with padding and lots o' craftfoam that I drybrushed brown and mustard yellow. I sculpted over the Urban Icons feet. Belt full of science stuff from War-Toys and the communicator courtesy of Boywonder0 here. Look for the other three soon.

                  What's he smoking, he looks stoned. Sorry, couldn't resist.
                  Nice work.

                      I never would have thought craft foam could look so good! Fantastic figure (pun intended).

                          He rocks!
                          Great custom, you can almost feel the slabs of stone grind against one another. Very convincing!

                              That is really impressive. Love Cap too. Can't wait to see the other 3.
