so i think for the contest, i'll be doing either Complete Carnage, Renet, or Shreddy Krueger or some crap like that...

[Jester]

Yea for Stump Wrestling Turtles!!

[notebook]

thanks. i love the stump tmnt. its mind boggling why they didnt make real version of them. oh well, i guess we'll always have crazy clownin mike.

may put up a couple more things late today/tomorrow.

Some nice ones ye got 'ere. Complete Carnage would be a little easy, but cool. Wouldn't it just be a repaint of DC's The Demon? :lol:

[Patraw]

Daredevil Don: Looks cool, again, it’s just the rough texture on your sculpted stuff that holds it back. You, Archon Turtle, and anybody else that makes Marvel TMNT customs should do a big Photoshop group shot of them somewhere down the line—that’d be cool.

Spider-Mike: This one looks really nice—you did a fine job on painting the webs, and that takes a mighty steady hand to do. Shoulda’ filed down the pads or something more though; the bulges throw off the look of the suit.

Pizzaface: Nice repaint, you did a good job of highlighting the sculpted elements that Playmates didn’t pay much, or any attention to.

Yeti Rahzar: Cool idea for an original variant, he reminds me of a white MOTU Grizzlor. As he’s next to Spidey in your gallery, it made me think of Man-Wolf too.

Ace Duck/Rocksteady: Okay repaints, but nothing about them really stands out to me.

Stump Leo: Looks good, sculpted elements are a bit rough. I like that you stuck one of the ninja stars on his chest.

Stump Raph: Definitely looking better than your original version. Just needs a swappable unmasked head.

You should make a wrestling ring, or get a WWE one, as a diorama for your Stump wrestlers.

Renet/Complete Carnage would be interesting, can’t recall ever seeing a custom of either.

thanks for the comments.
yeah, complete carnage is going to be a demon repaint, but i'm sculpting little horns for him and giving him a small height boost. the figures i could find were either way too big or a hair too small to be in scale with the original playmates line.
i'll be using a diamond form white queen to make renet. she should sync up nicely with the neca stuff, appropriately enough.
i found a good figure the other day on ebay, possibly for dreadmon, which would be real cool.

anyway, here's a blue foot mystic-

and shredder krang, from tmnta 24-25.

[VaughnMichael]

I like your Pizza Face, the others don't do anything for me..
I'm so glad I'm not already working on a complete carnage figure or anything *tosses figure in trash* lord I hate today.:dead:

[Patraw]

Shredder-Krang: Cool stuff! This is a figure I was also considering sculpting for the contest. The sculpted Krang is smoother looking than some of your other sculpting work, which is good, but it needs more detail work (I realize he was pretty smooth looking in the Archie comics, but still, when you're working in 3-dimensions, take advantage of it). I don't much care for Shredder's Archie outfit/colors, but you did a good job of bringing it off in toy form.

Blue Mystic: Good repaint. I wish Playmates had given us a full set instead of just the Fire version.

The ML White Queen's face/body sculpt got a lot of flak (narrow waist/face, etc.), from just about every toy review I've ever seen of it, so, from that standpoint, it might need some extra sculpting work to do Renet justice.

A Marvel Abomination figure would probably have some Complete Carnage potential as well, now that I think of it.

The one they brought out in the 90's hulk line would work very well as the purple clone from the turtles savage dragon cross over.

thought bruce timm's style was a good match for how the character was drawn..

thanks for the comments/feedback.
may hold off on the renet figure for the while to do some more archie or crossover customs. i'll definitely be taking some liberties with her atrocious costume design as well.

Hah ok I'm happy now! You used the animated series version of the figure.
I'm using the Dc Universe one and mines almost done, *rushing mind you thanks to you saying ur doing one* *grumbles a bit*
Looks pretty good though I'd say one of your better ones.

[Patraw]

Pretty sweet rendition of CC; I wasn't expecting the animated style look, but it came out pretty cool.

As far as the contest goes, remember that you're allowed to put more than one figure in your entry, so, you could pick an assortment of the ones you feel are your best work (provided they were all completed after September 18th, that is) and submit that as an entry.
