Most of these stem from the fact that I really don't like the original designs. So I gave them new ones.

Spirit is loosely based on a jungle operative and takes inspiration from Rick's recent Jungle Spirit.






Lowlight was basically a head swap with Duke to give him a modern appearance and so that he isn't in that stupid ass gray suit.







And the light set up I have tends to give a bit more shine then what I'd like. But what can ya do.

I dig!

You should really pay close attention to your photos though. Seeing a bunch of shit and supplies in the background takes away from your impressive work. It's distracting.

great looking figs, but I do agree with MW on the pics. Maybe at least crop the supplies out.

I feel sorry for that one stand, bottom right. Looks like plastic death splatter all over it.

I understand what yall are saying. I usually just take the pictures when I'm done with the custom. But whenever I have the time to take better photos I'll definitely clean things up a bit.

Eh...I like seeing the supplies in the back ground.

Both of these look really nice. I should work on a Spirit figure one of these days.

I just use a 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. It sweeps up like a half pipe or model shoot.
