luke314pi Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I got a good start on mine this past weekend. I expect to finish her this coming weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I'm pretty close to done with mine. Here's a question. If you have muscle definition on bare skin, what color would you use? It transitions from skin to clothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 A'ight. I'm done. This year I decided to go with 'less is more', so I will only be doing a single custom this time around. Hel. Norse Mythology. Mistress of Helheim, goddess of the underworld, daughter of Loki. I'll write up a bio later. I think I'm pretty much done. I may include a skull or owl if I can figure out how. Her helmet is designed after an owl, the symbol of death in the ancient world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Can we extend the deadline on this? I won't have mine finished in time to have it arrive by the end of the month, and I am guessing several other people are in the same boat. I still really want this event to be a success.

groundhog7s Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I have been wondering the same thing. Instead of just extending the date, should we reschedule it altogether to late in the year (maybe September or October) and relaunch it to gain more interest? Interest seems very low this year and I don't know if it's that people are too busy, the theme isn't one that people can relate to or get excited about, or if it's lack of leadership. If it's the latter, I don't know if that falls on me or if it's a case of no one person handling everything that it's a little disjointed. If anything, I think it needs a little more discussion to gain t he proper direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm all for either an extension or postpone to later in the year as I'm in a full on custom slump at the moment and trying to balance too many 'real life' projects that already aren't getting the attention they deserve.

boyd Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm OK with the extension or rescheduling. I know my summer has gotten away from me and I'm way far behind on customs I wanted to get done this year. First we should see if people are still interested in completing a custom, then we can figure out rescheduling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Still interested: yes. Need an extension: of course. If we reschedule, we should probably keep in mind when the next Custom Con deadline is (usually early to mid November) so people doing customs for that don't overcommit. However, I think I'd be more in favor of just pushing the deadline a couple weeks rather than months, just to be fair to people who got their stuff done on time.

Punisher Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Yeah a month or so would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 An extension would be awesome since my family life has finally settled down......longest 4 months of my life!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I would greatly welcome an extension of a month. I have been stuck on second shift for the last 9 months and it has really jammed me up big time. But, I literally started day work today and our schedule ( me and the wife) should be freed up greatly since we aren't cramming everything in on the weekends ( my usual customizing time) I am also waiting on some parts to show up, I'm getting pretty funky with these two.

Punisher Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 If we decide to revamp this, we could always donate to We Can Be Heroes with a theme of creating our own superheroes. (http://wecanbeheroes.1mobb.com/) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Wait, why are we revamping the theme? I thought gods worked fine. Besides, I'm already done with mine. If anything, I'd say we find a nice charity to donate to the victims of TDKR shootings in Colorado. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm speaking hypothetically Dino, i don't speak for the whole board Just a thought if the majority are at a stump due to the theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just been overshadowed by SDCC, new lines, and just the time to get it done. For me, I wouldn't be able to change, I've got about $30 put into my stuff already, so I'm not able to change, unless I can slap a cape on my Krampus :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujis Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Yeah, I'm all for the extension but I figure we're a lock on the theme/charity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
