Been a serious fan of your work since the Elven gal with the armor (agent Helix base) Or was that DrSyn too??. These are exceptionally masterclass. I know that I have been blown away by you both.

Rockage to the stratosphere.

These are all great. I like the parts on Tika, I may use that combo for a Joe character. The dwarf guy (last figure on Speed Metal's stand) didn't look so hot in the first pic, but the close up he's as great as the rest of them. Great job.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. Cap, I don't seem to recall seeing the female elf you are speaking of. I had most of these finished middle of last year, to early this year, but have just been too busy to post. TC, I will be posting a few more up soon, hopefully, and one is using parts that I recently got from you. Suburbanator, I am still working on getting good pics. The wife's good camera is in for repair, so she is using a little cheap one she had from ages ago. I had to totally sculpt all the hair and beard on him as the base head is from a Star Wars Ugnaut.

you do good customs. I really like Tanis and Tika the most. Tika actually looks like a production made figure. The monster with the rhino base is great too

I think Cap is referring to viewtopic.php?f=14&t=27186.

I think they al look really good, I think you did a fantastic job of turning existing parts into fantasy armor. I honestly like the turned head shot of Tasselhoff better because it is easier to see how her hair sits.

I love them all and think they're all amazing especially the orc and the knight based off the Dr Doom body. I have one minor critique I feel that the Thor Body really stands out as it's too recognizable and the head you've added is a little small.

I liked them the first time I saw them at TGC. And I liked 'em the first time I saw them here: http://www.joecustoms.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=27186

:shifty:

And I still like them now. Some good ideas in there that I'll use if I ever get around to a Game of Thrones set of customs.

Hope to see the roster added to soon.

I love me some DL, and moreso I love me some DL customs. Nice work bringing the characters to plastic life. Tanis is my fave though. These bring back many memories as I used these characters as my team when I used to play Bard's Tale many, many years ago.

The characters are all very production quality, but that Demon is just amazing.

Great work.

Oh they're already in the Critiques section. I know it happens with so many forums. I missed them the first time around. Gonna lock this thread though seeing that they are older customs.
