My take on Venom's Sly Rax. And a group shot of the Venom team members so far...

Love that you made him a 'Nok. Good call. Nice work all around.

Maybe I'm partial because I loved MASK, but what a great parts selection. A very fine figure sir.

Thanks. That was my first attempt at sculpting sunglasses and I'm pretty happy with it. The neck and waist don't move because I sculpted the neckerchief (the neck didn't look right without it) and extended the torso (too short). It was also my first attempt at making a sticker and it's probably a little big big, but overall a good first go.

The silver bits on the jackets/sleeves don't read too well, probably should have put a dark wash on the jacket.

Really great work. Ever seen the movie Stakeland? Because your version of Sly resembles Mister from the film quite a bit, which is a really good thing as Mister is pretty awesome.

Wow, nice job (on all three, actually). Rax was always my favorite Venom character, probably because he was the first one I got. I was actually working on a custom of him last week, but in modern style, not JvC sculpt.

Never heard of Stakeland. What's it about and is it worth a look?

This was going to be a 25A figure, but once I found the combination of the ns Wild Bill arms with the jacket, I switched gears.

The head is from NS unmasked/mail-in Storm Shadow.

I think Sly could use some chains added to his torso or jacket. Maybe the ones from 25th Torch. Just to make him a little bit more bad ass biker.

Stakeland is a sort of post-apocalyptic vampire film that is a very entertaining watch. It follows the vampire hunter, Mister, and a teenage boy that he saves as they journey north in search of New Eden, a place supposedly safe from vampires. The vampires in Stakeland are like wild feral beasts that rip into people and they don't seem to have human intelligence at all.
