Loving the Red Hulk and Silver Surfer. The Zombie Colonel Amwerica and Ash are inspired. Not too sure about that crimson guard, looks very sloppy to me, as does the Cylon. Agreed (and before anyone gets on me, YES, I could do better IMO. I majored in art in college, and have done a good amount of commercial art, just no custom figures, but I can draw/paint fairly well). Also, the SHS guys have a MUCH harder task than these ones IMO. Mighty Muggs are huge, plenty of room to work with, and if you look at the Crimson Guard for example, the black lines are uneven in thickness, off centered in the eye area, just very sloppy. Same with the Cylon and Task Master. They should have used tape or some premade stencils to get it more accurate/cleaner. If anyone in here did these, i am not trying to rip on your work, after all, you certainly get props for attempting it, and who knows, maybe there's things about the medium I don't know, as far as how slick or permeable the surface is, etc. Kudo's for the attempt, I just think they could be a LOT cleaner.

i think the SHS customes are great in their own right. but its unfair to say that one custome is easyer than another. the mighty muggs have more space , true but the artistic way you have to do this in seems just as hard. the SHS customes are usually close to the subject that the customes was choosen for. the muggs have to have a certain amout of what to leave of and what to display to make th figure appera as the charcter. so i call foul on all the haters on either side. SHAME ON you all were all here for fun not a contest.

Yeaaaa....I was totally kidding, too, when I said I was offended. I don't need people's approval to know that I do good work...it's nice to get the kudos and hear nice things, but at the end of the day I think the customizer really has to satisfy themself. Any custom requires a certain degree of skill to execute. I mean, Mighty Muggs are all in the paint department, obviously, as there's no sculpting involved. SHS or Marvel Legends customs usually rely more heavily on sculpt than paint. Either way, you're looking at someone's time and effort to produce it. Yea, some are better than others...I personally think that again, it all goes back to how closely you can emulate the style of the actual line. That's key. Weslae's comment was just kind of...blunt...and I was just in return breakin balls...sorry if anyone took it the wrong way or out of context!

I'm loving the Vision with the custom box, ant the Leo and Sentinel both look great also. The only one I'm not huge on is the Jason. I'm really digging your Nightcrawler as well. Great job!!
