luke314pi Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Here is my entry: The Great Mustachio The Great Mustachio was a famous Mexican cage fighter. The two prize possessions of his life were his glorious mustache and his championship belt. This was before the worst day of his life. On the morning of that terrible day, he lost part of his mustache in a freak ceiling fan accident. Then he lost the championship belt in a fight that evening. He blamed this loss on his mustache not being up to its full potential. He ventured into the seedy underworld of facial hair supplements in order to regrow his famous mustache. He tried red creams from China, blue powders from India, oil from a rare Japanese fish, guacamole from his mother, marmite from the UK, and lots of steroids from a local drug dealer. All of these items were tried at the same time in one strange evening. When he awoke the next morning, his head was pounding. It felt incredibly heavy. He reached his hands up and discovered that he now had multiple heads. He also had different feelings in each head. Some were happy, some were angry, and some were just plain nuts. On top of that, his skin had turned white. But none of this mattered once he looked in the mirror. He saw not just one mustache, but 10 of them (and also one beard for some reason). Each mustache was as smooth as silk, as strong as steel, and as blue as the ocean. He was also stronger, faster, and could think with 10 brains instead of 1. And did I mention how great his mustaches looked? The Mexican cage fighting league rejected him, saying that he had an unfair advantage over the other competitors. This rejection made Mustachio realize that with his new powers and godlike mustaches, he could be a symbol of justice for the people of Mexico. He made a pledge that he would fight crime, stop injustice, and deliver mustache grooming advice whenever possible. The Great Mustachio had returned!

groundhog7s Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Um, that's the most amazing thing ever. Looking at that is more awe inspiring than when I watched my children being born. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyd Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Brilliant. But don't get a swelled head about it, Luke. How did you keep him from being top-heavy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Thanks guys! How did you keep him from being top-heavy? He is definitely top heavy, but it is very balanced, so I didn't have any trouble posing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fujis Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 My God, Luke, your custom is GORGEOUS! Amazing work. Although it's making me rethink my own entry... And damn, I need to learn how to use decals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Great job, every body! I hope everyone is working hard to finish their entries. I know I'm in that category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Finishing mine tonight hopefully. Do we just send them out to you when they're done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I'm sorry to say guys, but I'm just not going to be able to finish my custom for this year. Too many factors took me away from getting this done. Very sad I won't be able to participate this year but I'm hoping things works out better for me for the next Charitymates project.

Kostisfire Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I might not be able to finish mine in time as well. The mate i was using had his right peg broken and while i did try the glue solution and it worked (i've done that in many other official mates that arrived broken) i didn't feel well giving a figure that could break. So, i started working on another fig and since my green stuff was no more, i went to buy some more. It turns out that the only hobby store in town closed for the holidays. I'll try to see what i can do using official parts but i'm not sure i'll make it. Ugh, i just hate summer (first the bank steals my money, then i can't do any of my stop motions due to not having the cash to buy the scenery which makes me to cancel some orders and in general turning things upside down). I'll do my best but i'm not sure i'll make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
