back from summer break

Hallo everyone!

Hope you spent a good time in these crazy august just finishing.

 

My though goes to my sister and my friend Ash, I'm thinking of you both and hope with all my brains that you will be back soon on the right track of your lives, as you deserve.

 

I'm here just to post some wip on the next three creatures.

The picture is showing some room for improvement on Warbird specially. The picture shows the effect of a not scaled arm. According to my considerations below, I should threat the arm in a way that will prolong the forearm and reduce the arm.

This is what comes from the picture, but it leaves me interdict when I compare with the old picture taken when sculpting, where it is evident that the forearm appears congruous. Maybe a painting effect? Or simply a 2D picture effect? A gauge will give the answer.

Again to those friends and fans that are asking me if I'm selling my jobs, I would like to remind that I opened the "Marketplace" area for those (rare) customs I'm selling.

 

It remains my decision to not work for hire, I'll continue to produce only what... I like to produce ! :)

And the base rules are: continuity (so no variants) and diversity (no repetition).

 

I understand that the price of those in the Marketplace are much higher than the normal customs you can find all around, but I give a value also on the fact that for 5 years I haven't sold any and the few ones given away in the past were given for free. This leads to the fact that a "Skif custom" in your collection is and should be (and remain for years) a rarity and a "one and only" piece.

 

The aim of the blog remains to be simply a place where I share my experiences, where I show my mistakes and my successes and where I'll always try to incentivate you guys in doing your own customs, for your colection.

 

The aim of my collection still remains to be the largest Marvel Characters 90mm scale in the world, and believe me: IT IS!!

See you soon.

She's coming (eventually again...) and I'm over her....

Some WIP's snapshots of the next creature coming... Warbird!

Shamrock, Marvel Comics figure

Shamrock is possessed by the souls of thousands of victims of wars who manifest themselves as poltergeists which affect probability within a 20-foot radius of her, altering situations so that she is given an advantage, in essence having "The Luck of the Irish".

This version is made from a copy in resin of one of my old customs Satana, by giving some modification with Magic Sculp White, specially on breasts.
Satana was made at that time from a copy of Eaglemoss Spiderwoman character.

The Captain (Nextwave)

The Captain was an ordinary (slightly stupid) human from Brooklyn. One night, while on a bender in the streets of Brooklyn, two aliens of unknown origin named Spa-fon and Squa-tront, came across the man who was to become the Captain. They granted him the "Messianic Sidda-Complex," the "Heartstar of the space between galaxies." He was tasked with using his newfound power and glory to "make this nightmarish land of 'Brooklyn' a better place." He then used his newly-gained superhuman powers to beat up the aliens because he "thought when you hit leprechauns on the head they turned into gold coins." Finding that this was untrue, he bent over with the intent of robbing them, and instead vomited onto his extraterrestrial benefactors.

 

Hope you like it guys!

 

 

Alflyse custom

Alflyse is the queen of Svartalfheim and the Dark Elves.

When Hercules, disguised as Thor, tried to confront the Dark Elves in Alflyse's castle, he was put through a series of tests. After proving his worth, he took her to find out how truly "evil" she was. The next morning, he awakened as the King of Svartalfheim and Alflyse's new husband, who ordered her troops to attack Midgard and Asgard to retake his throne. Spying on the whole affair, the Warriors Three decided that if Herc was going to be Thor, then they needed to find their own "Hercules". And out stepped Thor in a skirt, and feeling a draft.

When Thor discovered that Hercules had been impersonating him, he set out to prove nothing could beat the original. Thanks to this, Alflyse discovered that Hercules wasn't Thor and annulled the marriage, freeing Hercules from her.

 

Hope you enjoy my last custom!

 

 

Elsa Bloodstone, Sasha Hammer and Mary Jane (no eaglemoss custom, these comes from hasegawa Ma.K.)

Ok, not that much time to write some notes....
Just to show the last three issued yesterday.

I wanted since long time to add Mary Jane into my collection, I have to say I've seen a lot of sad custom all around on Mary Jane, I wanted something special so here she is!

Also Sasha Hammer was in my waiting list since long time, I wanted her sexy and definitely red. That's it!

Las but not least Elsa Bloodstone. She will not remain long alone, as the Captain and Boom Boom are almost done.

Still a lot to do on Angela, that I want to be my best custom ever!

Enjoy the frontal and the virtual 360° tour of these three babes now!
