Anyone who knows me on here knows my boundless love for the Thing.
Finally getting a version with proper hands was fantastic, yet I never
cared for his "resting position" . His arms just never rested against
his torso. They always stuck out, at best.


So, modified on left and un-modified on right.

Just some torso cutting on rib/sides and a tiny bit on the shoulder cuffs. Easy fix that really brings together better.

i'm considering picking up the First Class set, but since they never made a Beast, does anyone have a suggestion for a quick, easy custom?

I took a FC Angel, removed the wings, and replaced his head, hands, and boots with the like parts from a movie FC Beast (and put a pair of yellow anklets from something on him to simulate boot cuffs)

I know he’s not blue and hairy in the comic, but eh, it gets across the point of being Beast in a FC costume for me at least.

First Class (comic) Beast is really simple: just an extra First Class Angel without wing harness, swap out heads underneath the mask, add X-Factor Beast hands/duck feet. Closest accurate depiction IMO. He was kinda depicted a bit "slimmer" during that series, anyway.

So I made Sin, and customized my Red Skull a little.

I couldn't find any white tank tops, so I hope blue is okay, lol.

Oh wow, props. You read my mind man, I was literally thinking last night how I had a near-complete HYDRA collection, except for Sin. I know they made her as Skadi, but that...doesn't really count because that story was goofy anyway. Haha. You made good use of the head there, I consistently forget that she isn't a freckled redhead anymore and is a good deal more...uh, grotesque.

I usually forget about her human form now a days since Marvel pushed her Red Skull look a lot during Fear Itself.

So I made the best of both worlds, with her fathers face and a human body.

Yep! Looks pretty awesome. (Nevermind my opinion on Fear Itsself, the reasons I didn't like it are based on my shameless fanboying for a certain character. Besides, the "death" was hardly permenant...again. That never seems to work on him, huh? ;) I did like the idea of Asgardian forged weapons for all of the heroes, though. And Matt Fraction later became one of my favorite writers because of his work on Hawkeye.)

I haven't made it, but I originally had plans for Beast using spare Angel and Avengers Hulk hands & feet. Just have to paint them a skin tone

So I was thinking of what to do next, cause when and if I get the Uncanny Now team, I doubt we'll see the new mutants that have jumped on board.

Triage, the healer, already has some parts in wait, specifically a body, his wooden staff, and some hair borrowed from Sunspot's human form.

And with Falcon's goggles in Cap 2, I was thinking he would be perfectly easy to make.


Eva, on the other hand...
