Marvel Comics Joystick, and Serpent Society member Anaconda

Joystick, courtesy of Wilipedia:
Virtually nothing is known of the past of Janice before she first appeared as Joystick, including the origin and nature of her apparent superhuman powers. When she was much younger, her father, a gambler, taught her his philosophy to 'always have a card to play'. She then used this philosophy to great advantage when she helped a mobster rob her father to save her own life. Later, she was a student at the University of Arizona, living a life she later considered to be a bore. After her sophomore year, something happened to change her, apparently resulting in her death; in her "new life," she became determined to live life on the edge, and began taking extreme risks. She then disappeared for three years before reappearing as Joystick.

Figurine has been made starting from a Ma.K. Hasegawa figure, by making changes with Magic Sculp White.




Anaconda, courtesy of Marvel.com:
A former steel worker at the Roxxon Oil Company, Blanche Sitznski was noticed by the executives and chosen to become a special agent in covert operations. Having been well-adjusted to villainy as a teacher at Taskmaster's Academy, Blanche accepted the offer and was bioengineered to have various serpentine features, such as the ability to elongate her limbs, breathe underwater, and a skeletal structure laced with adamantium. For her first mission, Roxxon president Hugh Jones sent Anaconda, along with three other snake-themed villains employed by the company called the Serpent Squad, to retrieve the mystical Serpent Crown. Though Anaconda and her teammates Black Mamba and Death Adder were defeated by the Thing and Triton, the mission proved to be a success when the group found the Serpent Crown and Sidewinder returned it to Hugh Jones.
with this figure (and the last one, Sidewinder) I completed my Serpent Society group!

Gentlemen, please stay tuned, just the very last three figures and I'm done. End of Game.
I have them already in progress: Groot, Bug and Mantis.

And then? As said thusand of times there isn't any space left in my home for this figurines, almost 600 Marvel characters need a big space!
So the idea is to complete with the last three for my collection and then stop.

But.... I'm wondering about making one or two extra and try to sell them. For sure I'll not be for hire. Just doing a couple and trying to sell, if I will have success I'll continue, otherwise I'll stop definitely.
It is not for the money at all. It is because I can't imagine to stop my work suddenly... ehehehehe!

See you soon!!
