youbastards Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 Updated classic red Daredevil! This one has been in the bak of my mind since Wave 38 came out, finally got around to updating Daredevil with his more iconic red/crimson costume. I'm sure we'll see an official update from DST soon.

youbastards Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 Thanks guys. The 'shimmering' is actually a result of the sealant I used, and not intended, so I'm working on correcting. I also had to re-apply the chest decal, and I'll post fixed pix when I get home from work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Well, thanks for ruining the Target version in my eyes. Who, I might add, I was perfectly happy with until I saw your custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Holy... talk about the custom figure I didn't know needed to be done until I saw yours. Now I really do hope that DST adds him to the MvC3 roster with the other new characters. And that they use your recipe. (would that count as DST stealing your idea?)

boyd Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I like it. Love the little touches like the two tones of red for his suit and gloves/boots. Still like the shorter horns on his mask, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) Thanks everyone! Here are a few more pix: Edited September 21, 2011 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I've been coming back to look at your Daredevil all day, and he looks even better with Elektra alongside him. That mate needs to be made, beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WookieFodder Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Did you ever finish that Weird Al? I always wanted to make Howard Stern and his crew. Not sure if it will work, but Frankenstein"s shoes will add height and probably Lobo's Hair. Have you thought about any other music mates?

buttheadsmate Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) Creepy because I spent a great deal of time on the 'verse' yesterday ....unintentionally missing this thread.....doing some research for an idea I have had for some time . It's creepy because now that I've just seen your DD for the first time you have dealt with all the issues I personally have with the DD Minimate character ...wrong red,wrong facial expression & overwhelmingly wrong.... his billy-club pouch ! I revere the Target version but it still isn't definitive whilst yours hits the mark. Superb.

youbastards Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) Wow, I can't believe I haven't posted anything since September, I've been sick off and on for the last 2 months, so I haven't had much time for customs. I saw Mystery Man's great Odin QC and was inspired to make my own. Parts are movie Odin, Armored Thor, Beta Ray Bill, movie Loki, and some bracers from TRU Namor. I added some 'Shining Gold' to the gold parts, and removed the back of movie Odin's helmet to just have the horns, then repainted it gold too. also posting a picture of the custom Black Tom Cassidy I made for Nessex for the 2011 Secret Santa! Thanks for the pic, Nessex! Edited December 29, 2011 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Awesome Black Tom. Great re-use of the angry villager's head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 With the gold, that Odin is amazing and might be better than anything that could professionally made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Black Tom is v.cool, but that Odin is incredible. I've just started doing a little something to make movie Odin a little more comic like, and then I see 2 Odins from nowhere! Madness. beautiful work though... beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Holy crap, that Black Tom is amazing! That hairpiece is perfect!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I am also loving both of these customs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Really like your Odin, but love your Black Tom! That's the perfect hairpiece & face combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Thanks for all the complements! I decided to make a Black Tom Cassidy for my collection, but I went with black instead of purple to keep Nessex' figure unique. As you can see, the cane from First Appearance Thor works great for Tom's shillelagh. I also made the "plant infected" version of Black Tom as seen in the 90's: Edited December 31, 2011 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Because only one person demanded it (and we all know who THAT was), here is SQUIRREL GIRL!!!! I have her squirrel army on the way, so I will post some more pix when they arrive. I need to get some pix of the back of her tail too. The tail is an older style Minimate hairpiece (She-Hulk) turned on the side and filled in with Fixit sculpt. Before the sculpt dried completely, I pressed the belt into it to get an impression. Once it dried completely, I glued the tail directly to the belt. Credit goes to Luke for the face decal, I combined a few items from different decals he has posted to make the basis for SG's face.
