So had some spare parts laying around and threw this cyclops body down and they landed on top of a pair of DCIH Hawkman wings and I got inspired. So heres my take on a bunch of Mimics looks all bashed into one.

Parts

Head: Wolverine Origins Logan head with sculpted goggles and mask
Body: Wolverine Origins Cyclops
Arms: Wolverine Origins Maverick (to simulate Colossus' power)
Claws: Wolverine Origins Weapon X
Wings: DCIH Hawkman

Nothin spectacular, but I've been told I need to start posting my customs again, so here's a couple.

Ares is a comic pack Thor. Like Chief I wanted to show that this guy can be slavaged. Just sculpted the chest armor, and added a helmet and shinguards from some roman soldier toy that Joe showed me online and tada, Ares.

Never thought I'd see this guy in custom form - but you nailed him.

Great use of the otherwise useless Hawkman wings - give him Hank's big feet and he'll be perfect :D

Very cool.

I actually have another version of Mimic in the works using different mutants powers, that one will have the big hands and feet and be alot bigger than this guy.

Thanks for the critique Chief. :)

I like that you salvaged cool figs out of the assortment of parts you used. The mods to the Wolverine/Jackman head are cool, and Ares is just a cool figure all around.

Very nice...I like the look of the old-school Mimic compared to what he looks like running around now. It's pretty classic. And just because I haven't seen it, just how bad was the comic pack Thor you based Ares on? I've heard a lot of complaints but I've not seen one in person and few people have elaborated on just what its problems are.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Here is a link with good pics of the Thor in question. pretty much everyone that I've seen prefers the Marvel Legends Showdown Thor to the new Marvel Universe one. Myself included.

Great job on these like I said in our PMs.
You pulled them on greatly.

I can't wait to see your other Mimic that we talked about, knowing the parts it will be stellar. :-P

Great work. I know why you chose the Cyclops head, but did he look like that in that costume? This is his Dark X-men outfit right? Minor quibble.

I dont think he looked how I made him in that costume, but this was just me taking parts of different costumes that I liked. I'm not sure if this is mainly based on his dark x-men costume because I never read that series. I based the look off of this pic though.

I kept his hair brown, added Maveric arms to represent him using the power of Colossus, and the Wolverine claws and Cyke goggles. I think he looks alot less like an Angel clone now, and i have another version in the works that is closer to his more known look.
