Hey All Ive started on Drews head. I used the Leon head, sanded his nose to a more of a button shape and then painted over it to see if it was ok. I started the hair, which im very pleased with. But even at this stage, i can see a strong likeness. So wish me luck with the rest Wayne

I have that figure and that head works well, but you can pick his cheaper version, the face is the same, why you use a deluxe version which is more expensive pick the black one. i asked the bloke if he had the regular, but he didnt. but he said they were both the same price anyway lol Wayne

UPDATE: Ive changed my mind about the head. Im going to use a Leon Head from Resident Evil 4 (comic con figure). i think its a much better fit for chris. Lets hope! heres a picture of the figure i chose. his lips look softer in real life. i think ill have to modify his nose a little but thats it Wayne

Hey All Ive been planning this for a while, but have recently changed my mind about the outfit choice. I have now decided to base it from a photoshoot, i think it shows Drew to his full potential...a very pretty boy lol. Which leads me to my choice of head. Im using a deluxe Faith head, ive modified the nose, because he has a very specific shaped nose. The lips of the Faith head are perfect for Drew, i think itll work, he has very girly features. OK, so the body is Giles, dremeled down to his slim shape, with Yellow Bastard arms (for the skinniness). Ive started the sculpt on the shirt which im very pleased with. What do you all think? Wayne

First, I'm not agree with AngelAficionado, for me the DST Angel heads have a good likeness, not the best, but a good likeness, and they are not ugly at all. Now, I want to congratulate Willowswarlok for his fantastic work ! But I would change 2 things : the hair that looks too big for the head, and the necklace, you should sculpt it, it would look more realistic. But after that, I really like the rest, especially the body pose and the face. thanks for your input. i wont be changing the hair though. i think its in perfect scale, and its ment to look although his hair is wet and he has ran his hands through it. BUT i might add a real necklace if thats what the buyer wants Wayne

Angel pubes seem to be all the rage lately... are you kidding. you can barely see them. i had to put something there. i didnt sculpt anything PLUS they are mostly covered in bubbles. and sure, a comment about the figure would have been nice, not a sarcastic dig

Hey All Heres some updated pics of David! Ive completely repainted his face. Since this is my FIRST proper male custom from the Buffyverse, im very pleased. I think ive nailed his likeness, including his worn looking eyes. I still have to paint his necklace and add dripping glue etc. His hair does actually have tones in it, but for some reason you cant see them very well in the pictures What do you all think? Wayne

He looks really nice! I like the ideo of photoshoot figures! Nice parts selection and the paint job is great, as usual! Do you have photos from other angles? I would like to see his face, and maybe a few photos from the angle of the bas photos? thanks jon? i will get some better photos when its daylight and when i add the final touches. im gonna drip glue on him, like my leo. To make his glisten and drip lol im very pleased with the pose of his legs though, i think they look very natural and quite sexy LMAO, godbless DREMEL Wayne

Hey All i started this to pass some time its David as he appeared in a photoshoot. Im very pleased with the body. The legs cam from Leo, i used my new dremel (thanks mum lol) to smoothen out the boots and then added Angels Feet. I sculpted his ankles and thighs. He has Spikes torso and a Mac Angel Head. The bath tub is full of scenic water, remeltable resin, i then painted some bubble details on, to cover is erm........pride and joy lol. Although it isnt sculpted, which is another reason why its covered. Ok, im pretty pleased with his likeness, although it isnt great, i think its the moustache and goatee that throws me off, its not Angel its David. Tomorrow, i will add more bubble details, add glue for wetness and then take some more pics. He has leg hair painted on too! What do you all think, from this picture anyway. Wayne

shes looking good. although i would have used a schoolgirl darla torso, for a more accurate jacket. i think the hair needs something more, not sure what though. The arms looks great Wayne

This is very impressive. You should definitely submit it into every custom contest that you can find. I really like the Billy and Chrissy. The base is great. And the movement in the hair. Of course the magick effects is also really ingenious. kudos. i wouldnt know where to start Wayne

Hey All, ive finally finished the set, now ive gotta figure out a way to ship it safely Anyways, heres a pic of Billie and also some pics of the overall set, i dont think ive posted pics of paige yet so ill do that later. the magic stream things are kebab skewers (wooden ones) painted and then covered in hot glue, i think the effect is pretty good! What do you all think? Wayne
