Amazing work on these. I cannot wait to see more, and I cannot wait to get my hands on the black w/ purple Raph... 8)

Thanks Vaughn!

Nice to see you've come back, and I just love those customs, especielly Archie ones! Can't wait to see Warrior dragon.

But I also have a question, about wrestling Leos belts. Did you just sculpt the middle piece to it or did you use superglue to stick it? Since I need to do almost the same thing with my future Leo custom, I'm curious how'd you do that.
Thanks!

Candy Kappa 02-17-2010 08:14 AM

they are all fantastic

nofuture4u 02-17-2010 12:01 PM

Great customs dude!

Revan 02-17-2010 12:06 PM

I love Kala! (naturally)

and those stump wrestling turtles are great too. Why did you make these? business or pleasure?

Mutagen Mutant 02-17-2010 12:10 PM

So when are you going to start your new toy line, so that I can keep an eye open in the stores?

Spitfire 02-17-2010 01:27 PM

Very nice. Can't wait till Leo can join my Raph and Mikey. The paint on these guys is really something and the packaging is awesome. I feel like I own the rarest TMNT figures MIB haha.

plastroncafe 02-17-2010 01:40 PM

These are beautiful!

Ninjinister 02-17-2010 01:49 PM

God, Vaughn, those are damn ugly! What an amazingly terrible mess you've made! Go get a real job!

Cipher 02-17-2010 02:09 PM

That Complete Carnage rocks so damn hard. The cape looks fantastic, and the texture is perfect.

And while I don't think Titanus is quite up to the quality of the rest of the figures (although still amazing), it's really cool to see a Red Sky villain toy. Maybe take a crack at Dregg?

Alex 02-17-2010 02:31 PM

Wow! Amazing wrestling customs!

Ulisses31 02-17-2010 04:53 PM

You rock man, great painting and sculpting skills.:tgrin:

BigApple3AM 02-17-2010 06:03 PM

Great job on the Grybyx. Did you sculpt it from scratch? I like the painting style you used on the the Neutrinos and him, the black stroke is a nice touch.

Lordmylar06 02-17-2010 06:54 PM

It's really cool to finally see that Leo! I'm thoroughly impressed. Great work!

ToTheNines 02-17-2010 10:31 PM

Freakin awesome! My favorite would be the Grybyx lol.

Are you making a Stump Don? I feel like I've seen one before, maybe Tokka made it.

Hey thanks I'm glad to be back :)
Trust me I can't wait to do Warrior Dragon he's going to toward over the neca tmnt.
I ended up using crazyglue which works amazingly but I used it for all his pads not just the middle part.

Thanks so much I love Complete Carnage the poor character hasn't gotten much love at all, such an under used character that shouldn't be.
Thanks and it's understandable because Titanus was the first of these that I did.
I made a Lord Dregg some years ago but yeah he and Mung are on my short list of characters to tackle.

Thanks so much, the neca tmnt figures work so well for this because of kevin and peters alternative costume designs being the same as the archie wrestling costumes.

You guys are seriously making me pumped to do more figures, it's a nice welcome return to the site. Not what I used to get from people here.

Thanks so much I wanted to make the Grybyx articulated but it got messed up in the cooking process. But yes I sculpted him 100%
Thanks I like it also it gives it that cartoon look to me, i know allot of people dislike it though but hey you can't please everyone.

Thanks so much, he was rather hard to do and took me quite awhile but in the end I really liked the way he turned out even ifs not 100% correct.

lol cool thanks :)
I am he's my favorite turtle so I'm saving him for last and also yes Tokka made one already which was another factor in my waiting to do him till later.
You may have missed it but up top i have a list of characters that are coming next.

I just looked at that.

Gnatrat custom is the most ridiculously awesome thing I've ever heard, doubly so for the fact that it'll be created with the quality of your other ones. Talk about an obscure character.

It's one I've always wanted to do as a big fan of Mark Martin's work and oddly enough Mr. Martin himself requested I make him after seeing my other work. :)
