Post subject:  Commissioned Custom for Stir Crazy (Detroit Music Producer)

Some time ago a post was made in the market place on this site; "Will pay for Custom"
viewtopic.php?f=21&t=20717&p=222512#p222512

The member is Stir Crazy (not from the Gene Wilder film) he is a music producer from Detroit, Michigan. I contacted Stir Crazy about bring his character to three dimensional life. Instead of the 1:18th scale GI Joe, I opted for a !:12th scale Marvel style figure with real cloth clothing. This is one of my favorite commissioned customs because it was made for a celebrity, yes Stir Crazy is famous. Check out his work at http://www.stircrazy.bandcamp.com/

Here are the picks. Not only did I custom make the figure, but I created a custom card art and displayable keyboard/ turntable with speakers.

Yes, Pluv the figure is fully posable.


John, the customer was real happy with the custom. I am glad that you can see the level of detail that I put into this. The best feature is the handsculpted "S" logo on the shackles.
