The body of my new football player

This is going to be a custom for Billy Bajema, TE St Louis Rams. Here you can see some of the different parts that I have used and some of the putty were I have sculpted what I needed. I used AVES to sculpt.

The start of another Football Custom

I am in the process of doing another football custom. This one will be of the St Louis Rams TE Billy Bajema. Here is the start of the helmet. I had to free hand the horns and it was a little bit of a challenge but I think it turned out ok. I know on the next one that there are many different things that I will have to do to try and make it better. Anyways here are some pictures.

My first custom finished!

I was able to finish up my first custom today. Sorry for the pictures. I rushed to take a few to see what it looked like but have since taken a few better ones that I will post later.

Thanks for looking,

Box art figure for Thunderbird miniatures

Here is a new figure that I have just finished painting. I was trying to get it finished sooner for Mark but I had several life things happen and I was able to finally wrap it up. It was fun to paint and now that I have finished it up for the box art I will remove it and then place it on a base with more groundwork. I painted it the usual way using all acrylics. I think this was very well done by Anders and it has many possibilities. I may have to get another and see what I can come up with for a conversion.

Thanks for looking,

Joe

Ground work done

Here is the finished groundwork. I need to clean up a few spots on the base. I should have the figure finished either tonight or hopefully tomorrow.

A very nice surprise in the mailbox today!!

When I got home today I found a new fine Scale Modeler in the mailbox. Well, I knew it had to have something of mine in it because I do not get it with a subscription. I open up the package and was pleasantly surprised to see on the cover and small picture of one of my figures and a nice little write up in the readers gallery.

Here is the cover.

Here is the new custom I am working on

Here is the new custom I am working on. This one will be of TE Joe Klopfenstein in his Colorado Buffalo's uniform. I am hoping to get this one wrapped up soon so I can give it to him next month sometime. He now plays for the Buffalo Bills and had previously played for the St Louis Rams. Thanks for looking.
