luke314pi Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I know we already have two big custom events going on, with Charitymates 4 and the Amalgam Custom Contest, but CustomCon 26 is right around the corner! The entry deadline is Monday July 5th. I am definitely going to have an entry. Anyone else planning on putting something together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Thanks for posting this, Luke - I was wondering what the dates were. I do have an idea for an entry. We'll see if I can get it ready in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 I will be finishing up my entry for this over the weekend. I have 2 out of the 5 customs done so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Man, I'm really bad at not showing figures immediately when I make them. Like Scott Pilgrim would be totally awesome to have done for this. Not gonna happen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Custom Con 26 is on! First day: No 'mates so far and it's a quiet start so far. I like the Marvel Who? Dead? - Not Dead! idea, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I wasn't able to get my entry done in time, so they'll be no Minimates from me. I hope someone got a Minimate entry done in time, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 I submitted one, so there will be at least one Minimate entry. Gotta represent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniFiend UK Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Bob I tip my proverbial hat to you that is a great re-imagining of Marvel characters. With some nice mixing of pieces to give a sense of the era. I especially like Hawkeye's gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Harris Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Thanks so much for all your Basterds love!!! It was a lot of fun to imagine these guys. I had the idea back in spring and was working on possible characters to come up with. In the beginning I wanted to do steampunk Avengers, but when I finished the first ones - Thor and Iron Man - I came up with this background story and let them team up with my Lincoln mate, so I needed a leader. Nick Fury was born and he opened the doors for various non-Avengers characters. A good thing, because I LOVE the way Cable turned out. Big thanks to BHM by the way, who was kind enough to support my submission by proofreading the texts! And I'm glad you like Clint, since he was a pretty late addition. I had some parts looking somehow steampunkesque, so I was thinking about who might use them. Goggles and that gun were screaming for a sharpshooter, so Hawkeye was the man. Here's a pic with Abe and his secret squad. I'll add more pics and details to my custom thread later this week. Again, thanks for the love!!!

buttheadsmate Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Big thanks to BHM by the way, who was kind enough to support my submission by proofreading the texts! That was my pleasure.

Nessex Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Some great looking re-imaginings there man! The steam-punk idea has worked really well. I particularly love Fury, Hawkeye & Cable. I'm looking forward to even more characters (you are gonna do more, right? . . . . Right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 (you are gonna do more, right? . . . . Right?) Agreed. They need somebody to fight, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
