Thanks Tim

VERY cool, Tim -- I think he looks better without the coat, though. And the neck looks just a tad too long to me.

Love the chest armor - where'd that come from?

I think the whole torso, chest armor included/sculpted on is a TriGate torso - right Tim?

I love this figure, and really dig the choice of themes for a self custom. I agree the neck is a small touch long, but that I'm guessing is partly due to the hair?

I also see what Dan is saying about the non-coat look, but I like both, and dig that the coat can be on or off and still look good.

Hey tim, go deeper on the drill for the head, then when you go to pop on the head, heat the head up a bit, and the hair will conform to the new position. Once the resin is heated(use a blow dryer)it can be altered a bit. Bend the hair, it wont brake, and you can get the fit you need better.

Great custom my man.

Sharp work on the figure.

I actually think he looks better with the coat. It kind of evens up the proportions with his neck and legs.

thanks guys, he was fun to make. He does have a trigate torso and the head was made by them for me too...got me 2 more heads still.Thanks for the advise how to work the head too Dave.
I like him with the coat and without too, he is a little bit taller than some of the other joes but since he's a superhero/vampire slayer I can blend in with the marvel figures.
again thanks Tim :-D
