Nessex Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Damn - i was JUST about to suggest the very same thing. LOLWell done Mini_Myte No Nessex... you mean well done Boyd. Now you just have to get Dr. Doomsy from Lurch77 (you may have to kill him for it) Boyd and your ship will be complete. Apologies. In my haste to congratulate you for beating me to the Dr Doomsy gag, i didn't actually congratulate the ships creator! Very VERY nice work, Boyd! Tis a fine looking vessel!

Lurch77 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 LOL, that is awesome! Now my daughter is going to want one of those repaints too (I'll have to find a spare ship somewhere). For now Doomsy is happy chillin at her cottage house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liney Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Doomsy is just crying out for some kind of web comic! The repaint of the boat looks pretty cute too, especially the sail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Who wants an update? First, a couple of customs from last year - my entry for the last CustomCon, Crayonmates: And the custom I made for my Secret Santa gift last year, Christmas Cap: And now the new stuff - Barry Allen Flash: And Wally West Flash, in his last and seldom-seen costume: More pics, recipes and assorting babbling can always be seen at my custom site.

hellpop Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Wally looks sad somehow; did he just come out of a DC editorial meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 Wally looks sad somehow; did he just come out of a DC editorial meeting? Wally just heard Rob Liefeld will be relaunching him in the new DC universe. It's going to be hard to run without feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Wally looks sad somehow; did he just come out of a DC editorial meeting? Wally just heard Rob Liefeld will be relaunching him in the new DC universe. It's going to be hard to run without feet. first , let me say, these are outstanding! i am also bummed out bigtime that so many A-list guys were never made. You've done them "Justice" now time for goofing... I can see it now... Rob- " I want to take The Flash in a new direction" DC guy- "oh yeah, how's that?" Rob- "I'd like to slow him down, I mean why does he have to be so fast? am I right?" DC guy- "what are you thinking?" Rob- " pockets, and lots of them! Ooh, and tiny pointy feet, and tons of straps, and He'll look so cool with a red leather jacket, with tons of pockets" DC guy-"" Rob-"" DC guy - thinking to himself (I better call Jim Lee back, maybe those lines weren't such a bad idea after all) sorry for that, but those "Lee lines" comments in the logo thread really had me cracking up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Both of those Flash mates are incredible! Love the Christmas Cap too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yes, I forgot to mention how great Barry is. He's flawless; if I couldn't see the reflection of your flash on one of the decals, I'd think you got him from a factory. I made my Flash Barry Allen too... by giving him a different head. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moo2172 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Beautiful work as always! BUT now you put another sneak peek photo to speculate about! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 That Barry is awesome. Great work. I, too, curse the gods for offing the DC line way too soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 I have a couple of Marvel customs before I post a big bunch of DC customs. First off, a custom I'm surprised I haven't seen yet. It's the Destroyer armor, as possessed by Thor from the final story arc of Walt Simonson's run. Take a Destroyer armor, add some parts from a Battle Armor Thor - volia! Sometimes I do customs just because I have the parts. Last year I had an extra Lobo jacket that I was planning to use for a custom Thunderstrike. But when Thunderstrike was announced, I had no idea what to do with it. While talking with Luke about it, he gave me the idea for this next custom, so feel free to blame him for it. I present my original armor Heavy Metal Iron Man. More pictures, recipes and other stuff can be seen at my customs site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 By the way, the Heavy Metal Armor is my own creation. It has never appeared in any comic. You don't say? Destroyer Thor is so obvious, but so brilliant. Good job all around, as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jboogie Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Destroyer definitely needed that makeover Boyd, he looks perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Ha ha - i love heavy metal iron man. very nice idea & he has been realised perfectly. That Thorstroyer looks great too. That is one Thor variant that i actually wouldn't have minded seeing get a real release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I forgot all about Destroyer Thor. Great idea! I must make one for myself now. Will Heavy Metal Iron Man be the first in a Marvel rock band? Sounds like a good CustomCon project actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rheul Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Destroyer Thor is through the roof! Great job! Heavy Metal Iron Man gets my nod for best comedy mate ever. Fantastic work on both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
