 I originally started this one back in May. I've worked off and on since then usually quitting out of frustration. I'm very happy with the end result though. He doesn't look as much like Peter Weller as I'd like, but I'll fix that issue when I make Buckaroo Banzai, which will need to look more like him. He still has the handle in his hand from the Darth Vader figure, I'm planning on putting a gun there as soon as I get one. I may sell him at some point, but it won't be cheap as the amount of trouble I went through kind of makes me just want to keep it... But every man has a price   This one only took a week. I started it when I finished RoboCop as a present for my girlfriend. It came off mostly without a hitch. I did cut my hand carving out the heels, but they look really good so I don't care. The hair was annoying, but again I think it turned out like I'd wanted, so whatever. My next two will be Snow and a Baseball Fury from The Warriors for an order. After I'm done with those two I may be doing my first wrestling mugg, anyone with ideas on who it should be should leave that in the comments. I have a few ideas but am not sure yet. |

Those look really good! I'm surprised at how accurate the faces are. Great detail work as well. 10/10

Incredibly awesome. You won me over with Robocop. I love him. I think you should round out the edges of his visor on his helmet. Other than that, smooth stuff!

I know I'll be doing an Abdullah the Butcher before Christmas as that's what I'm giving my brother. Maybe a punk down the line would be cool though. Incredibly awesome. You won me over with Robocop. I love him. I think you should round out the edges of his visor on his helmet. Other than that, smooth stuff! Yeah, the picture I was going from didn't look that rounded, but when I was watching the movie the other day I realized I needed to fix that along with a few other minor things. I don't know if I'm going to go through the trouble now, but we'll see. And if anyone is interested in previous muggs I made, check out my deviantart page. The link is in my sig. I've also made Black Dynamite, Rorschach, Divine, and John Waters. |

I was thinking about a Sting, I didn't even think about the RoboCop connection though  |

Both are great but my emphasis has to be put on the Robocop because that was a difficult task and you did a great job on it. Personally I didnt start doing the removeable pieces untill way later on, You have picked this up like nothing and thats awesome. You have the right mind for painting these and your work is gonna get even better with time, But as of right now its already pretty damn good so keep it up

Thanks F1sh  It helps that I've been an artist for most of my life and used to customize wrestling figures before it got too expensive. Though this is still a different animal and I've been happy with my progress so far. After doing RoboCop, I don't know i I ever want to do any mechs though |
