I went into a frenzy this evening. Here are several WIPs.

Last Dragon Bruce Leroy Green. I need to swap the boots with a ninja when I come across a spare one. I was originally going to use Lando, but all I could see was Billy Dee. I think the hair works but the face is off a little.

Fist of the Northstar Kenshiro. I think this one is a homerun. All I have left to finish him are the chest scars and the left forearm wrap.

Cowboy Bebop Spike. This is at the very early stages of what I have planned. Just put the parts on a body so I could see where I was going. The head is mostly done minus some paint and sculpey touch ups. The suit coat I just put 1 coat on to get it going. The torso I will swap out with 3/4 sleeve Duke and sculpey a tie. Then I just need to get another ship wreck for the legs.

No shoulderpad for Ken? lol I'd agree, I think you've got him pretty much spot on. Now you need some Road Warrior style bikers for him to beat up.

I don't know how hard they are to get ahold of, but Kaiyodo actually made a series of preposed, roughly 1/18 scaled Hokuto No Ken figures. If you could get ahold of them, they'd probably be a great source of parts for other HNK customs.

Kenshiro needs his pads and vest then he'll be ready to beat up those dreadknocks.
Nice job.

I got two big crits on Ken and Dragon. NO FISTS!!!!

Sorry, mate. Open hands = fail on characters like that. At least one cupped hand or fist on these two are compulsary. ;-)

Aside from that they look cool heh. ;-)

Or a single finger to do the 'death touch'.

But that was a jest.

They are really good customs. Good use of the base bodies, you should be proud to have them in your collection.

"Hey Reloy!"


Big fan of The Last Dragon, but i'm not really seeing it in the custom.

They're ok, but like said, they need a fist or two. Best would be a fist with power flowing around it, or fire or energy like Darko's flame/electricity effects. But I can imagine that's quite a job and I don't know if you're capable of creating that.

Yeah I am a huge fan of the movie so I thought this might get close, but after posting I broke the Leroy back down into spare parts.
