This was one of my favorite Dark Horse characters and with my dwindling like of Batman and X's new series from Dark Horse kicking off in Dec, he may be moving to a number 1 spot for me. His whole approach of marking his victims the first time and then taking them out a second if he has to return is the perfect approach (almost like a Batman/Punisher blend).

I am taking one creative license with the hand wraps on this one

Wow!

Not at all familiar with the character, but based off the reference image and the just flat out quality of the work so far, I'd say you're off to one heckuva start!

I think your arm wraps look better than the actual character.

Excellent start. What did you use for the wraps, electrical tape?

Thanks and yes. Most hobby shops have it by the paints or model cars.

I knew when I saw the W.I.P. that this would turn out great & you did not disappoint. He was one of my favorite character from back in the day & you have done him justice. Excellent job , all around. Tell me, what parts did you use?

I don't know the comic, but...

awesome, badass, production quality (better actually) looking figure. Given your love for the character and the likelihood of not ever seeing a real figure made, this shows what customizing is all about.
