This entry is from Customizer452: October 15th - Nina Cortex and Uka UkaSo I’ve been in a Crash Bandicoot mood lately, Nina and Uka Uka seemed like they would be a good match for this challenge. For Nina I completely sculpted her face and her accessories. Her body is made out of a little Barbie doll. I used some old Baby doll eyes for her eyes, to make her look big eyes and awkward. I wanted to make her look like she was an experiment gone wrong. I made her dress from scrap material and glued her hair in. As for Uka Uka I made him out of some wooden clothing pins, card board and lot of hot glue. I attached some wire to the back of the mask to give the illusion he is floating, also so I could attach the mask to Nina, in case she wanted to me indestructible. And here she is wearing Uka Uka. Hope you like them!

This entry is from Customizer452:October 17th - "Supernatural" Dean Winchester in HellSo with it being the Halloween challenge Tradition tells me it’s time to do a new Dean figure. LOL. So this year I wanted to do something a little different. So I made Dean when he was in hell at the end of season 3. I don’t really know why I chose this. But I always found it creepy, plus the concept seemed like a hard challenge for myself. I used a Cato figure for the base. This is what I normally use for Dean. This difference with this one was that normally I have Dean in long sleeves and a jacket. But when he was in hell he was in just a tee-shirt. So I used a Dremel tool to shave down the bulky arms. Then I sculpted the new arms to have short sleeves. I wanted to add meat hooks to his sides like the actually scene so I ventured into the fishing section of a local store and got some fish hooks that were the right size. I sculpted and re-painted him adoringly and added chains to him. Then came the base. How do you create a base for the vastness of hell. Well I started with a large back board that I hand painted with acrylic paint and oil pastels. Then I went over with a pen and created the background chains seen in the show. For the next layer I added a string to give the background a 3D effect. I added a clear bottom to the base to give it the illusion that he was being held up by the chains. I attached him and his chains to the base. Here are some photos! Hope you like it!

OMG, finally a SPN custom.. and my poor Dean in Hell~! Not one of my fave scenes.. LOL .. However, it is so well done C-452! It's great that there has never been a 6 in figure of SPN released. So, this a very impressive custom. Only critique.to me he doesn't look like he is so scared and broken as he did at the end of that season.- Minor critique - as Dean would say AWESOME work! You have really done a huge amount of work for this challenge. To be fair to all- Now, guys and gals there are some SPN and Buffy FUNKO figs and the Buffy mini figs released. So, if anybody wants to customize them.. Game ON.. we go to 10/31! Also- Spikey anyone? Sadly- not a fan of not those crappy RE-figures. UNLESS they are amazing>>>> But, I have faith in the BTVS customizers! thanks for sharing your talents with us! ROCKTOBER ON!

This entry is from Customizer452:
October 22nd - Laylamon: Digimon Fusion
So I wanted to make a Laylamon figure like she was in a live action movie. This was actually a hard concept for me to get together. Because the actual character has a lot of accessories, but in a more realistic version look to cluttered. So I changed her look a little. I kept her eyes kind of large because well it’s Anime. I used a Vamp Willow head and a female character from Stargate. No idea who it was just got it in like a thrift shop LOL. I made her outfit head dress and wings from scratch. I added metallic gold pain to her left arm to be her gold claw.
Hope you like her!

This entry is from Customizer452:October 23rd - Evil Gumball MachineSo this is kind of a weird one. I don’t know why I did this, but I guess it was just for fun. I wanted to make something fun, silly and creepy. I got this little toy gumball machine a while back and had no idea what to do with it. So then this happened. I wanted to make it kind of like a weird kids toy. So I added a custom skull and repainted the machine and changed the gum balls to be more Halloween colors! Here’s what it looked like before! Hope you like it!

Hey MsPL! That's a tall order, to make a custom in a less than a day... and they have to send it to me to post, rather than post it themselves and I'm signing off for the evening. Perhaps you could extend the invitation a bit longer?

Love that Hordor!!! the white walkers behind look really awesome, great base overall Sasha!! Yes I agree, I would LOVE to submit an entry but I wanted to finish my diorama as well as make a custom figure to go with it as part of the halloween challenge, and just submit it as one entry all in! X Edit - it's my birthday this coming wednesday and I had a local cake shop make a custom Buffy cake for me that I designed - would I be able to submit this? I would take no credit for the *making* process lol, but I did the design and still have the picture saved on my laptop. If this is suitable I'll also enter this (either way I will definitely be posting photos on the forum anyway lol my first birthday buffy cake!!)

Thanks, guys!
Roadie, we'd love to see the cake. If it is properly Halloween-themed, you can send it to me to post here. If it is general Buffy stuff, then please show us in its own thread in the Jossverse section.
Everyone, please try to send me something gruesome for the challenge this week. I'm off work this week, so I'll be able to check the forum every day.

This entry is from Customizer452: October 25th - ScarecrowOkay, so I made this doll for my mom. She is a writer and she just finished her third book, called “Scarecrow.” The book is well about a scarecrow. So I wanted to make her well the evil Scarecrow. I used a random male doll. I made the shirt out of a baby plaid shirt, I made the bag over the head out of an old sweater and the same with the pants. I made stand out of a decorative poll and some chop sticks. I tied the scared crow to the stand. Then I took some pastels and shaded the doll and added some dark red paint to add texture and color to the dolls blood. Finally, with some black thread I added some “Xs” for eyes. Hope you like him.

This entry is from Customizer452:October 26th - "Bride Of Frankenstein" Monster High DollOkay so I’ve done the Bride before, in the challenge a few years ago. Because I love her, but sadly that doll got damaged, so I wanted to make a new one. But I wanted to do her in a monster high style. I love the concept of Monster High, being about the children of classic monsters. But I always wanted to see the classic monsters in monster high style. So here is the bride! I made her from a Draculaura body, and another dolls head with dark hair. I threaded in the white streaks! I wanted to update the outfit a little, to keep up with the monster high trends! I painted the doll in matte colors, but then I went over the multi colored eyes with gloss to give it that life like look! Hope you like her!

Hey Roadie! That's a really gorgeous cake. They outdid themselves.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR ROADIE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
However, you're being naughty just posting it in this thread. I've had to be strict with other people in the past, so I can't just let you off. It's not a Halloween theme, and you're supposed to send the photos to me to post like an advent calendar. Would you please show this lovely cake in the Jossverse thread instead? Thanks!
