Thanks Wave. That was a tricky process but well worth it in the end. I'm looking to do 1st form Cell the same way I think.

That Cell is an ambitious custom. Can't wait to see your magic on it.

Thanks! I'd like to make him wider next time but I'm really pleased with his flexibility

Here's my bootless/undershirtless/wristbandless Goku when he fought Raditz: Thanks again Branjita for the awesome stickers for his gi. The feet were probably the toughest part but I ended up using a mold of them so I can make multiple latex casts. They have an aluminum wire armature so they can bend easily at the ankle. I'll post some more close ups and hopefully (if I can locate them) some WIPs of the feet process. I'm looking to make another Raditz (still not pleased with my previous ones)

Amazing job there cleve! Other than improving raditz, do you have any other custom/ideas in mind?

Thanks! Gohan, yes, I'm pretty much finished with my 1st form Frieza (I'll be posting pics soon) and I have Saiyan Armor Krillin and Battle Damaged Piccolo on the back burner. Oh, and I started a Zarbon but I'm not sure if I want to continue with him or start over... I wish I could just concentrate on one character at a time!

I still have some minor touch ups to do with latex painting but here's the "pretty much" finished version of Frieza first form: He's a little taller than I'd like him to be.. I'm getting better at my wire armatures so hopefully next time I can get a more accurate height. Overall tho, the figure bends beautifully and the fingers move independantly of each other (originally I had used Figuarts Frieza hands but I ended up just making them with wire and latex).

I know it's been a while since my last custom but I've been working on this custom for a long time now. I still have a lot of work to do but here are some WIP photos of my latest custom, Nappa. (I can't wait around forever for Tamashi to release him... ) The base figure is the S.H. Figuarts Hulk with a molded latex head/neck. The main reason this custom has taken so long (started it last year sometime) is that I decided to make his armor removable and I ended up sculpting the head entirely from scratch. I had issues with the neck so I ended up making a silicone mold of the head and neck to create a latex "mask", that I put an aluminum wire inside of (so he can move his head any which way without any seams. This took quite a bit of time but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. What's cool is that I can make multiple casts of his head/neck now (in case I want to make more). I hope you guys and girls enjoy this figure. I'll post more as I progress. Thanks, cleve
