I was always a fan of toon Gargoyles. Been watching the reruns on Toon Disney and caught the episdoe when Macbeth shows up. Hit the web looking for good pic's and couldn't find any, but a fan site described his appeanace as "black armor w/trench coat". Decided to break up the black and paint the armor gray. For those that aren't familiar with him, he's an Immortal and is linked to the female Gargoyle Demona and either can only be killed by the hands of the other. More info here,

I've been working (with the help of a few folks on here) on a decent Elisa Maza for years.
Still no luck :rotfl:

I always hoped they would release more realistically sculpted and more poseable gargoyles for her to befriend. :/

I loved the show so much I got the whole set on DVD (pirated of course).

Anyway the problem with the show was the season 3 finale (which while not bad itself) which basically made the gargoyles known to the entire human race and good.

They had some spin off ideas and such but that last one was sort of sad.

They were good as outcasts.

All the historical stuff was class A. I loved it personally.

btw, sweet custom dude :-P

Excellent show (sub-par toys imo)
great custom. I sculpted on built over the EE would go along way(maybe a different head to, as that one is a little big) but don't get the critiques wrong. You made someone look unique while being in mostly black and a trenchcoat, that ain't easy.

Sweet custom man! I've always been a fan of Macbeth. I think it's that whole Sean Connery vibe he's got going on. Now get to work on a second, sweet ass masked head.

I was always a huge fan of the cartoon as well, it was one of the better series. I do seem to remember a toyline being released for them, and I also remember that toyline being craptastic. This is cool, I definitely see the character here. Do you have any plans to do the others.
