Check out his Vader and the costume of Han, among other great looking customs! Thanks to Pjam and WorGar for the Marty ebay link in the other forum.

My favorite is Indy Version 2, although even his Ford sculpt is a little pudgy.:D

How long until Sideshow brings us their own 12" Steven Spielberg action figure?

Yeah, it is obvious that this guy has talent, so it is surprising he would let this Han sculpt slip through.

yeah, i found this guys stuff awhile back. some of it it incredibly awesome. NEO, Chris Tucker, Gump, many of his sculpts are amazing for a non pro, but that Ford is...

anyway, he's really talented. i'm not sure i like that he uses Durham's water putty rather than resin for the final pieces tho.

this guy does make some awesome figures. the best ones are where he uses heads he didn't sculpt, like the maximus and neo figures. he just mods them to fit his figures. he's really good at the costume making. his maximus is one of the best figures ever.

the Neo head is from the gentle giant mini bust, and the forrest gump head is from dragon.

I think his Neo is the best of the bunch, pretty sweet. That Han and Indy look nothing like Ford though.

see i was thinking that NEO was from the GG bust. wasn't sure bout the Gump. it seems that guy can word things a bit misleading at times.

the Indy in that ebay link (Streets of Ciaro) is using a Frontline head. i think it mentions that in the add. didn't read it all, but the last time they sold one it did.

yea, my only complaint about this guy is he can be a bit misleading about where the head sculpts come from. don't get me wrong, he is very talented, but even if you change a sculpt you didn't make from scratch, i find it dishonest to take credit for the work and call the sculpt your own.

it's obviouos the better head sculpts were borrowed from mass market companies like gentle giant or dragon and the less than good heads are his own sculpts.

regardless, as i said before, his work on the gladiator maximus figures is awesome.:chew
