    Quicksilver

    Okay, I gotta say this before I continue. I do not like this character. Never have. However, I bought this awesome light blue, shiny fabric last month and wanted a project to use it on. I grabbed a QS head from Austin at the Meet and here he is. If I ever do another one of these I'm going to have Paul make some white lightning stuff for me. Cutting the pattern on craft vinyl was a bit tedious. I know there were a couple of Quicksilver customs posted recently so I waited on this post for a while. I'm actually fairly happy with this one which is unusual. I'll have Anthony make a cardback and I'll be set. And yes, it's painfully obvious I need a new camera. This thing used to take great shots and now everything is fuzzy.










    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

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

    He looks great, Scott. I like the texture of that material.

              Looks pretty good to me, the cardback will be a nice touch.

                Really nice figure, Scott. That's great fabric and the paints are awesome.

                              In my wildest dreams I couldn't do a paint job that good. For a character you don't like you gave it quite a bit of respect.
