Well buddy, it sure is good to see you back and this custom is some of your best work to date. I love ALL of the sculpting and modding you did to make it look like Scott Norton. The attire choice is really good as I don't ever recall seeing him made in this one yet and you pulled it off brilliantly! The painting on top of all that sculpting looks nice and smooth and how could I forget the wrinkles on his singlet and pads were done quite nicely. Really awesome figure, can't wait to see what you have coming next... as long as it doesn't beat me  |

Looks really good, I am impressed that you're detail goes as far as capturing the folds in the side of the singlet. Since you did away with articulation, how come you decided not to mold between the neck and head?

I know before I said I just don't "get" posed customs, and I still don't, really, but this custom is amazing. The sculpting is impressive. As annoyed as I get with you and Sandman ranting about the "good ole days" of real customizers, skintone, and posed customs, I think this custom speaks for itself. It's not that its better because its posed or whatever, it's great because it looks flat out fantastic. I think that's all most of the fans of customs on this board really care about. Excellent work.

The boots when sculpted over need to be filed down so they don't look all chubby. I don't have a dremel, so I decided to leave this posed custom without the sculpt, just see how it'd be taken. The neck I had already sculpted the hair when I realized that I hadn't sculped the neck. It was too much of a pain in the ass to cut the hair off and resculpt it when I was very satisfied with my hair sculpt.

Well said sir, well said. I think many are failing to see that in what I've been preaching in the competition thread. It's not about posed or non posed, or even if it has a painted skin tone. The thing that everybody should strive for is excellence in their work. |
