You did it! I can't say that I'm too surprised as I know you were capable, but this Shredder looks even better than your previous attempt! This is fine work, and seeing that you've posted the recipe I think I might give this a shot myself... that is if I can have your blessing

Any projects in mind after this one?

Aw, you don't need my blessing - knock yourself out!

Don't have any more TMNT-related projects in the works - it's mostly gonna be Marvel stuff for ebay...

Great work, DG! I particularly love the sculpting on the helmet, and I'm always impressed with your doing the blades by hand.

Speaking of eBay, is this Shredder going there? Considering that the last one was for Secret Santa, I hope you're keeping this one (or planning to make another to keep)!

I don't know - I made him for ebay (I'm trying desperately to get some cash for the big comic-con over here next month), but I'm not sure I can bear to part with him - I've had him on my desk and I just can't keep my hands off him, he's so much fun to play with, which I never do with customs normally.

At the same time, I don't know if I could make another - this had so much work (8 days straight of 8-10 hours) that I think it'll be a long time before I do another Mirage Shredder...

Just wanted to pop in and say this is some of the finest custom work I've ever seen, and I've seen quite a lot. Excellent job!

Why "reluctantly"?

I'd assume he doesn't really want to part with it yet needs some cash.

Well dude, you did one HELL of a good job with this custom work. I love seeing how much improvement was made over the older one which was none too shabby itself. I know parting with these suckers can suck sometimes, (I made a movie God-Skeletor I still kinda regret selling)... BUT the great thing is, your next attempt... (no... **** that) SUCCESS will be even more of an improvement still. You'll get him to that point of perfect.

The way I look at it is, if I'm on the fence about selling a custom but not sure, then his ass is getting sold. Of course now I'm beggining to make two of every custom I produce lol.

Both customs look great! The second is a real imrpovement on the first, and I didn't think it could get much better!
