    Yes, was considering Tri Klops, Beastman and Man At Arms next. I got a set of 24 MOTUSCLE figures for about $14 shipped and there were many duplicates to work with. Thanks for the feedback everyone

    Unfortunately female bodies and heads are hard to come by in this line. I've made a few casts of female heads and torsos for future work. They are supposed to be releasing more female figures in the future.

    I think I already commented on these on another board, but I've got to say again, these look great. I'm definitely going to have to track down some of those MOTUSCLE figures.

    Ok there are still a few fixes to do on Whiplash and Triklops still needs a bunch of paint apps. It's at least more presentable and gives a good idea of where they are at. Glad I didn't start on Beastman yet, the new one looks pretty good. 20171008_072324.jpg 20171008_072349.jpg 20171008_072253.jpg

    I commented on these on another board we both frequent, but I'm going to say here, too, I think the MOTUSCLE parts blend in practically seamlessly with the Mega parts. Some solid work here.

    WIP Goldar, Rita is pretty much done but would eventually like to revisit the head later. Pics of her coming later. IMG_20180422_43121.jpg

    Couple more customs, Snake Armor Teela, Orko, a Young Rita (original and Movie mash up), some Monsters and my older Motu customs. After seeing the pics of Orko, I have to fix his mask. It's not noticible in person.

    That's actually pretty damned cool! What did you use for the fleck? I'm only decent because I was a pretty well known Joe customizer a few years ago. Used to specialize in the difficult stuff. Been semi retired for the last couple of years for Joe's, but mega definitely hits that little sweet spot that reignites the spark every now and then. Keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing your future work!
