luke314pi Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Yeah it would definitely be nice to have clear pictures, but so far everything looks good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpool Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Correct me if I'm wrong, but that would be the first real Watchmen custom that isn't just art, wouldn't it be? It looks AWESOME, in any case. Great work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 So I was going through some of my various pictures, and waht do I find? Pics of the 2 sets of Dr Horrible mates I did(The second was a commission). Sadly most were pretty bad, but I did fid A goup shot, and a boxed shot. I've added these images to my first post. p.s. you may notice that these pics include a Penny custom that I didn't post. This is because, due to the tight schedule I had wile making the 2 sets, I was only able to make one of her. These are the only pics I hav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 (edited) Alright, I finally took some better pictures, so they've all been updated. Hope you enjoy! Edited October 13, 2008 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Just added new customs Rorschach and Kyle, both of whom I literally just finished,as well as Atom, who I did a while ago. Also, while digging through my stuff , I found my very first two minimate customs-- Doorman and Superboy. Not as good as my newer stuff, but I still like 'em.

Glantern Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 Just added Comedian and Night Owl from Watchmen to go with my Dr Manhattan and Rorschach. Tried my second attempt at a dual sided face with Comedian( My first was Penny). I think it turned out a little better this time. Enjoy!

Glantern Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 Added some new stuff. This batch is comprised of some of my own characters, brought to life through a series of QCs. I tried to do adequate write ups for each, and one of these days, I hope to do a story about these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 Updated the first post with the Rocketeer. I've been workin on this little guy for a little while now, due mostly to my problems trying to figure out how to make the helmet and rocket, but I finally figured it out. The helmet comes from a Magneto, with the front reconstructed and the fin/vents attached. The rocket was built from scratch. He turned out really well IMO, and he's become one of my favorite customs.

Chazwinski Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Haven't had time for many customs lately, but I figured I would post some of the designs Iv'e made. Let me know what you think. I like these designs...It's cool to see someone else doing them besides me and you did a couple that I haven't thought of to do... it's really nice to see those Watchmen customs, too! :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 (edited) Sorry For the lack of updates. I've had alot of stuff in the works for some time now, and I've almost finished it all at once(finished 10 new customs this week alone!). ATOM SMASHER: This guy's my first venture into the 2.5" scale and he was fairly easy. CAPTAIN ATOM: Sorry about the coloring in this image, I'll try too get another pic up later today. ELONGATED MAN: This guy was real fun to design, but he definitly reminded me why I HATE red paint. I also included a pic with Bane for size comparison. ALAN SCOTT: This guy's been on my to-do list for a while, but I wanted to get him just right. In the end, I'm glad I waited. MARTIAN MANHUNTER: See above for my thoughts. Only thing I'll say is that I really need to find some flared boots for him. SAND: I made this guy to help beef up my JSA. The only reason that I picked him over anyone else is that He looks sweet(and I had the peices for him). I also gave him a flip around head to show his face under the mask Aaaand my camera has no battery power and must charge. I hope to post the rest of my stuff by the end of the day. Let me know what you think Edited April 15, 2009 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 (edited) Okay, finally got the time to finish taking pics so here goes JIMMY OLSEN: Can't take a whole lot of credit here. I saw TENMINE ART's Jimmy and wanted one of my own, but I thought he should have his signature red bow tie. METALLO: This guy was a case of right parts + little paint = easy custom more than a strong desire for the character. Next, I was looking back at some of my older stuff, and the more I looked, the less Happy I was with some of them. That being the case, I redid a few. SUPERBOY: I was never 100% happy with this guy, so he was at the top of the redo list NEMESIS: There was nothing major that stuck out on this guy, but I figured while I was working on Superboy, I might as well fix him too. GROUP SHOTS: Here are a few major DC groups that I felt needed some holes filled. JLA I still think There need to be a few more female characters. Maybe Black Canary and Zatana. JSA Superman Family Reminds me how much I need to finish up that lois I'm workin' on. Edited April 15, 2009 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Nice Jimmy, man! Yeah, mine needs a bowtie, too. I kinda want to figure out how to make a removable one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.marvel29 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 great job on those watchmen 'mates. BEST BOOK EVUUUUUUUURRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the compliments guys! Well, I've got a bunch more DC customs done, as I'm desperately trying to fill holes, so look for some steady updutes over the next couple of days. Well, I've really been into Batman lately(Due to both the release of Dark Knight and to the fact that lately I've been rewatching the 90's series) So First up let's show the 2 I've made from that universe. RIDDLER: While watching the 90's series, I realized how cool this guy was back then, and since I haven't had the innitiative to buy the C3 version, I thought I'd make a version in his suit and tie. TWO-FACE: This guy's benn on the list almost since DC was cancelled, but I never seemed to have the right parts. However, when I ended up with a spare Movie Tony Stark, This guy came togther in less than a day. My favorite part of this custom is the coin. It was made from a BSG card hand that I had for months with no idea of what to use it for, but when I started on this guy, I realized it could be reworked to look like a coin. That's all for today, but I plan on posting more tomorrow. Comments are greatly appreciated, so please let me know what you guys think.

Glantern Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) Alright, time for my next update. Today let's lookinto some JLA related stuff GREEN LANTERN: ever since I bought the original DCD GL I've always felt there was something that needed to be tweeked. All I did for this guy was replace the superman hair with that of movie Tony Stark, and replace his right hand with one from a Guy Guardner because it has better detail BLACK CANARY: Recently, I was looking at my JLA display, and I realized that it could definitly use some more female characters, so I figured Canary would be easy enough. SUE DIBNEY: While not the most remembered chareacter(Dying in Identity Crisis was the high point of her career) I've always liked Sue as a character, especially in Keith Giffins I Cant Believe It's Not The Justice League, hence the look of the character. While she isn't the most stand out 'mate, she turned out well and she's a great companian piece for Ralph Edited April 15, 2009 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Not to be annoying, but it would be nice to hear what others think, good or bad. Comments are always apreciated and I do like to know from others if there is any thing I could fix or inprove, so give me your thoughts. Thanks!

Bob Harris Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Man, the Green Lantern quick exchanges are easy, but pretty effective! Nice! Since I'm not really into regular DC, I can't comment adequately on the other characters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 nice riddler!! whos head did you use for black canary? Thanks, I'm quite fond of Riddler myself. Canary's head is a Betty Ross from the Hulk movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 Some More new stuff. Today, I'll be showing a set that will be going to my dad to Christmas. He's a huge Aquaman fan, so I tried to even out his collection a bit. AQUALAD: Side kick to Aquaman, he was pretty high on my list. Fairly basic custom MERA: Aquaman's wife, she was a bit more difficult than Aqualad, but still fairly simple. AQUABABY(aka ARTHUR JR): Aquaman's son with a code name that most certainly would have gotten him made fun of later in life had he not been killed by Black Manta while still a child. He was the most difficult of the 3 because I did not just want to put him on a normal body. I ended up shortening his arms, legs, and feet, and replacing his torso with a smaller one. All thar work and he only ended up being about a milimeter shorter than his father. Oh well! THE AQUAMAN FAMILY: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
