gotenks thanks man. Yeah I gotta do some about the face. Thank you a lot. I'm glad you like.

roshisurprise good idea. I wish I could. The size is pretty hard ti find Branjita helped me find thisnone

sexydbz sure no problem budy

SSBroly is pretty nice. I really like his robe piece. I'm usually against cloth on figures, but it works. My biggest issue with this custom is that it isn't Broly. It's Trunks' head on Broly's body. I just don't see anything in the face that brings out Broly. If you really put effort into the custom, then why do you just put the head on with literally just a new paint job? You made the body look really good and then the head just disappoints. I'll say 7/10....but if the face looked like Broly, it might be a 10/10.

SSGotenks is cool. Making the legs must have been tough, but I still think his upper thighs and crotch piece should be proper size. As we see it now, the belt is thicker than the pants below it 8/10

Ultimate Gohan isn't bad. In fact, he looks just like the thought-form of Gohan in Buu's head. The real Ultimate Gohan has a darker orange gi and has skin that is not so pale. Lastly, the hair is strange. Looks thick in the back and isn't very pointy in the middle. He could really benefit from a new paint job. 6/10....could be 9/10 with new colors.

USSTrunks is neat. I like that you made him extra buff and it all looks proportionate. However, the armor has no definition. You basically just carved lines to separate the breast and ab plates and that isn't accurate. It just looks too flat. Still, a pretty good custom. Vegeta's head looks good on the body, even though he never went USS, and Goku's head doesn't fit on it, as Vegeta's body is too short for him. Good paint work on it though. 8/10

Bulma is cute. Well, sorta lol The head could benefit from a makeover or replacement. The DWC girl heads aren't that pretty, but it'll suffice. She looks pretty good to me, but I want to see the back of her because her shoulders look like they're missing something. 8/10.

I'm so glad to see these. Ok let me start off by saying I love them all <3 The trunks especially has really peaked my interest. But now from a critical standpoint:

Broly - Looks perfect, but the face is un broly-esque. Still you were aware of that, and I can imagine how hard it can be to sculpt a face.
Gotenks - Just the belt like you said before, looks pretty cool anyways though.
Gohan - Gohan looks awesome, I like how he looks like gohan instead of goku face-wise. Did you use a goku face or a different figure?
Trunks - I love Trunks! This figure looks so good, I might take a look at him on ebay. Do you mind taking a pic of two from behind?
Bulma - Didn't expect to see this at all. It looks wonderful! I like how the eyes look, they really capture bulma's sneakyness ahha Great custom, and loving all your work my friend!

The Broly looks really nice. What he's missing is a subtle nuance that only long-time fans or other artists/customizers would notice, and that's that his face isn't entirely the right shape. He has a significantly longer chin/jaw than a standard DBZ character (Goku, Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien, Trunks, and basically everybody else who practically has the exact same eyes, nose, and face shape), and a narrower face. He also has an oddly long neck in the movies too. That's stuff that only hardcore fans would notice, so I am not criticizing your work for it, though you can understand why Adrenaline and others might, because they have a vision of what he's supposed to look like in their heads. My one complaint is that the face doesn't appear to be the same color as the rest of the skin, but hey... sometimes I mess that up too since I paint parts separately and not always at the same time. You did paint it right? It isn't just standard figuarts Goku skin is it? If regular skin, I rate 8.5/10 with 1 point missing because the face isn't the right shape and .5 missing because the skin doesn't match, if painted, 9/10, for the less picky DBZ fan, I'd rate it 9.5/10. Really great. The sculpting looks sweet and I love the fabric skirt, how did you make that skirt? Is there wire inside? Did you sew it? Did you glue it?

Gotenks has funny skinny hips but looks very good otherwise.

USS Trunks looks a bit inflatable, like he's about to pop. It only really bugs me when I look at the side of the legs. Very unnatural muscle shaping, but to be fair, it kind of was pretty unnatural in the anime as well. I notice the arms looking very unnatural in the pic with the Vegeta head as well. I have this same criticism about some of your other heavily muscled characters like Frieza 100% and some other bulky one you made... can't remember who. The shape of the muscles just isn't human-like enough. The armor could have been a bit more 3D. Nice job overall though.

Gohan's hair looks a little over detailed, but other than that super nice.

Is the backside of Bulma not sculpted at all? It looks like there's nothing done to her back behind her arms, so I think you only sculpted the front of her shirt. I'm not sure what to say about her because I'm not sure if she is a work in progress or finished. You said you ran out of clay, so I'm guessing she isn't finished.
