I haven't been participating in the site or making customs as much as I'd like to lately, but here's my most recent stuff. Both of these guys were entered into Daremo's super fun Kumite tournament. Hopefully I'll be able to get back in the swing of things soon.

Here's an updated take on Ghost Tiger. He's got an unmasked head and a more opulent outfit.

And a Dreadnok viking called Reaver. I thought this custom was a little too simple for Daremo's tournament so I added a freehand tattoo on his left arm that reads as 'Dreadnok' in runes. It didn't work too well, but I'm glad I tried something new.

Great looking figures. No critiques.

Ditto. I like the concept and execution of Ghost Tiger. Great work on both!

Looking at Ghost Tiger's first pic, I'm quite disappointed to find out he's actually a player with his cheeks covered in lipstick. ;)
His last pic is cool, the tiger shield looks great on him.

Reaver would be a perfect addition for the Dreadnoks' ranks. Nice axe too!

Thanks for the comments, guys. The dried blood effect on GT's face is a bit purple. Maybe that idea didn't translate like I wanted it to. I might try a redder shade.

I like both of them. Especially Ghost Tiger. Where did you find the tiger head to dremel for the mask? Was it from AC Moore or Michael's?

These are both fantastic.

Ghost Tiger is just incredibly detailed and elegant.

By contrast, your Nok Viking is simplistic in design (though not execution) and just a crazy cool concept.

Sorry, I meant to answer this days ago. The tiger head is a sculpt from Slayer Design Studios. I didn't actually hollow it out. The figure has two heads. The tiger face mounted on the shield is a button, which I did indeed get at Michael's.

Thanks again for the comments all.

I normally don't care for real cloth items, but here you totally nailed it. The denim painting on the blue jeans is also perfect!
