    Custom “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade”, 8" retro WALTER DONOVAN (Julian Glover)

    This simple but fun custom was a commission for an enthusiast in Belgium who planned to attend a February 2017 Comic Convention in Pensacola, FL where actor Julian Glover was on the bill as a “meet-&-greet”. The photos below show Mr. Glover autographing my custom. I heard he was delighted to see that someone went to so much trouble to honor a character of his.

    Julian Glover also starred in “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back” as General Veers, and “Game of Thrones” as Grand Maester Pycelle of King’s Landing.

        Okay, that is superb! Your custom is top notch, and Mr Glover is looking tremendous! This is just great.

        Did you do the grail sculpt? It's rock solid!

          Thanks for the good vibes. Regarding the grail accessory, it was practically a "gimme"! I used the "relic" grail that came with one of the 3-3/4" Hasbro Indiana Jones figures that supported the Crystal Skull release. So, it was basically a film-sponsored replica and the scale was perfect. Score!

              How cool is that... And another Megofan from Belgium, eh...

                          you have nailed all these Raiders figures you've done. Brilliant.

                          add a pic of all of them together. That packaging sells it even more - couldn't have done it better myself. awesome visions with the parts you used. Your Dick Tracy inspiration is one of the most fun customs I've kit bashed.

                              Very nice figure and signature. It never occurred to me to get a pic for the custom I had autographed.
