This one was made for Freddie Williams II. I met Freddie at SDCC (one of the nicest and most gracious creators I met there) last year and while he was doing a quick Batman sketch for me, I told him about the custom Robins I had made. Freddie gave me his email and asked if I would email him some pics. He was impressed and asked if I would make one for him. So we worked out a trade, I made him a Robin and he drew me a portrait of Batman (Bruce) and Robin (Tim).</span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFF00;"><br /></span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FFFF00;">Basically the same as my last custom <a href="http://buzzyfretcustoms.blogspot.com/2010/02/dcuc-custom-freddie-williams-ii-styled.html">Robin</a> except I used the cape from the DCD Batman & Son Series Robin and I used the lower legs from a Movie Masters TDK Batman which I had to sand down and re-sculpt.

The studly one liked my first King Hulk repaint and asked if I'd do one for him. It gave me a chance to try some paint techniques and tricks I've been learning plus I wanted to try to get the Green Scar close to comic accurate as I felt my 1st attempt was a little too dark.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#33cc00;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#33cc00;">All his green was painted with a Reaper Warm Green Triad set. I covered him up with Pine Green first, then followed up with a drybrush of Leaf Green and then a drybrush of Pale Green. This Hulk has a ton of detail in his sculpt and the drybrushing really makes it pop. I'm totally sold on Reaper paints now and will be adding more as my current paints get used up.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#33cc00;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#33cc00;">I'm extremely happy with how the Planet Hulk accessories turned out. I airbrushed them with Tamiya Dark Bronze but I went a little too heavy and they were a little too bright and shiny for armor that looks like it's been used in hundreds of gladiatorial battles. I thinned out some Citadel Dark Brown into a wash and applied it pretty heavy then I went back and sloppily drybrushed with the Tamiya Dark Bronze again.</span><br /></strong><br /><p><span

that I thought would be quick and easy, that is, until I got an idea from Phineas Curmudgeon...</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>But I'm getting ahead of myself already. I was checking out a WIP thread by a favorite customizer of mine; Grownman, and saw some improvements he made to the new SMC Juggernaut. I had seen the prototype for this Juggy at SDCC 2008 and was on the fence as to whether I wanted to pick it up or not. Then I saw Grownman's improvements to it and thought I'd pick one up and take a whack at it.</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>Original Juggernaut ></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/JuggernautA001.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/th_JuggernautA001.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/JuggernautA002.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/th_JuggernautA002.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>The main mod GM made was to replace the enormous forearms and hands with the forearms and hands from a HML2 Thor. I liked the look but unfortunately those Thor hands were made for gripping Mjolnir and a battle axe. I couldn't get around the fact that Juggernaut is a character that needs fists.</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>Once I finally got around to starting (July 2009) on this job I tried out various fists from larger figures and happened across a SOTA Street Fighter Akuma figure that I hadn't been able to figure out what to do with. He had fists that fit perfectly and he already had some funky hand thing that was too far off from the funky hand thongs Juggernaut has. I took some quick pics and showed my idea to some fellow customizers who all gave it the green light. </strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/JuggernautArmSwitch007.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/th_JuggernautArmSwitch007.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>*I started out with a variant paint job Juggy but I botched up his waist pretty bad so you'll notce in the WIP pics that his colors change : p *</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>I was on the way. Then the Curmudgeon struck. He brought up something about this Juggernaut figure that was bothering me on a subconscious level: small balls. Hip balls to be exact. Once you cure the gorilla arms you still got a Juggernaut with tiny hip balls that look ridiculous with his legs. But the Curmudgeon provided an answer: Swap Juggy's waist with one from a SOTA SF Blanka. SOTA even made one in brown that was almost a similiar to Juggernaut! Now where the Hell was I going to get one of those? To make this long story a little shorter; I went to SDCC 2009 and scored a Blanka cheap from a dealer. Huzzah!</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>Now my only problem was how to integrate the Juggernaut torso with the Blanka waist? I remembered a mod done by Grownman. I sawed through the Juggernaut waist about halfway down, then dremelled off the Blanka waist swivel peg and through careful measuring and sanding cemented the Juggy waist to the Blanka.</strong></span><br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/JuggernautModsWaist001.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/th_JuggernautModsWaist001.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/JuggernautModsWaist008.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Juggernaut/th_JuggernautModsWaist008.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong>Then it was just a matter of strengthening and filling it out with some Fixit Sculpt. I decided that his waist was a lot of real estate to just be plain brown so I took another liberty and gave Juggy a belt. The rest can be seen in the pics, so without further delay...</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#993399;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span

another favorite of mine - Ka-Zar; Lord of the Savage Land!</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;">I always thought old Kevin Plunder had it made. He's got a Sabretooth Tiger for a best friend and lives in a land chock full of dinosaurs, prehistoric mammals and cavemen. Every once in a while he pals around with the X-Men, Spidey, Daredevil and then he hooked up with Shanna the She-Devil! Oh yeah, he's also a millionaire. What a life!</span> <br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;">I tried a new paint line while working on Ka-Zar; Reaper Paints. They were suggested to me by my friend Ratboy - a customizer of great talent. My usual method of mixing up a tan flesh tone paint wasn't cutting it this time around. Ka-Zar has a lotta flesh to paint and by the time I would get halfway done the paint would start seperating and changing in tone. Very frustrating. Then I remembered the advice of Ratboy and looked up the Reaper site. How nice to find a plethora of flesh tones to choose from! I used Reaper Tanned Skintone and I think it's got a very nice, natural look to it. I'm looking forward to adding more Reaper paints when I need to replace other colors.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;">On to the pics!</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;">WIP Pics ></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zarv3013.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zarv3013.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zarv3009.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zarv3009.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;">Finished ></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zar.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zar.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zar002.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zar002.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zar003.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zar003.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zar005.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zar005.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zar006.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zar006.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zarv3017.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zarv3017.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zarv3002-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zarv3002-1.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/Ka-Zarv3015.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Ka-Zar/th_Ka-Zarv3015.jpg" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;color:#009900;">Recipe ></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">DCUC Captain Atom Head</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">HML Invisible Woman Hair</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">DCUC Black Lightning Body except for...</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">DCUC Amazo Forearms</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">HML Ka-Zar Knife & Scabbard </span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">Sculpted some hair, nipples, belt, loin cloth and boots </span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;color:#009900;">Thanx for looking!</span>Buzzy Frethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01461183783812966796noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5131838544755749894.post-11844973795851585662009-07-05T22:47:00.003-04:002009-07-05T23:55:18.083-04:00Daredevil - Marvel Universe Classics<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Daredevil/DCUCDDv20Small005.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Daredevil/DCUCDDv20Small005.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"></span></strong><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">No, I'm not gonna start this one crying about how slow I work.

Mattel uses some thick paint. What I did for the parts that weren't red was give 'em a couple coats of Citadel Foundation Red. The Foundation line of paints are made specifically to be great base coats with good coverage. Then I went at him with Model Masters Guards Red. His little bit of flesh was painted with MM Light Flesh with a drop of Citadel Beastial Brown mixed in. The MM Light Flesh is way too pale on it's own but a drop of brown added to 3 or 4 drops of MMLF makes a natural caucasian flesh tone.</strong></span><br /><strong><span

like forever since I've posted a new custom. I gotta work faster... or smarter... Screw it, you can't rush art. :p</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"><strong>Penance is the title character of the mini series Penance from Arcana Studio. It's a story about lies, murder and revenge in the superhero community of Atlanta, GA. The main protaganist is actually an ordinary police detective that is caught up in the middle of it all personally and professionally. Check out Penance and Arcana Studio's other titles at > <a href="http://www.arcanacomics.com/">http://www.arcanacomics.com/</a></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"><strong>I was commissioned by Sean Wise, the co-creator of Tales of Penance, to create this Custom Penance AF. Sean was referred to me by my good friend and AF customizer extraordinaire Matt "Iron Cow" Cauley. Thanx much to both of y'all!</strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"><strong>A lot of work went into this job and it really challenged me. As you can see Penance has a mix of the standard superhero leotard and futuristic armor. The gauntlets (I think that's what they're called) were a major source of frustration. They weren't something that could be easily swiped from another figure, trust me, I looked. Nope, I had to create them from scratch. It took no less than 5 tries. I finally ended up constructing them by cutting the basic forms from sheet styrene, gluing them all together, then to his forearms and then sculpting over them with Aves Fixit Sculpt. I did the same for the Eye motif Amulet and Belt Buckle. The armored lower legs came from an HML Ultimate Iron Man which I spliced onto the legs of the DCUC Manta base body. I removed, dremeled and sanded off the unnecessary features and sculpted the needed details. Painting Penance was quite the adventure too. Red doesn't show up on black all that well. Most of the veins of red were done by painting them in white first then going over the white in red.

This Batman just seemed so much harder to make than the previous ones. The body was very difficult to open, had to fix some factory defects and attaching the neck was an adventure. Because he has swappable heads (see pics) I had to make sure the neck was secured to the body a little stronger than just gluing. I had filled the hole left when I removed the original neck with Aves Apoxie Sculpt and then after gluing the DCD neck down I drilled a hole in the neck peg cavity and then used a screw to fasten the neck down to the body. I don't think I'll use this DCD cape on a Batman custom again. A lotta effort to make it work. Hope you like it Amazing Spider-Fan!</strong></span><br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/BatmanJL-Hush-CP008.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/th_BatmanJL-Hush-CP008.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/BatmanJL-Hush-CP005.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/th_BatmanJL-Hush-CP005.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/BatmanJL-Hush-CP010.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/th_BatmanJL-Hush-CP010.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/BatmanJL-Hush-CP014.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/th_BatmanJL-Hush-CP014.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/BatmanJL-Hush-CP016.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Batman/Batman%20-%20CP/th_BatmanJL-Hush-CP016.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">Recipe:</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;">DCUC 1 Batman Body</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;">DCD Reactivated Batman Head, Neck and Cape</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;">DCD Unmasked Batman BW Head and Belt</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Bat Symbol provided by Synner</span><br /></span><br /></strong><strong></strong>Buzzy Frethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01461183783812966796noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5131838544755749894.post-8749122167016525562009-02-26T01:05:00.003-05:002009-02-26T01:19:26.833-05:00Bane Created February 2009<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Bane/Banev2002b.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Bane/Banev2002b.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"><strong>I wanted a Bane that was much closer in size to how he was depicted originally and got a flash of inspiration when checking out some customs utilizing the Savage Dragon bod.

I was shooting to make my custom Moon Knight as close as I could to David Finch's depiction of Moon Knight. big, tough, mean and crazy as a snake.<br /><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/MoonKnight011-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/th_MoonKnight011-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" ></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/MoonKnight004-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/th_MoonKnight004-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" ></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/MoonKnight007.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/th_MoonKnight007.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" ></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/MoonKnight006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Moon%20Knight/th_MoonKnight006.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" ></a><br /><br />Recipe:<br />DCUC 1 Batman from the neck down<br />ML Moon Knight Head and Hood<br />Cape was cut from clear vinyl<br />Apoxie Sculpt for the transition between hood and cape, moon symbol, gloves, boots and belt<br />Belt Buckle is the head of a nylon screw<br />Crescents on Belt were cut from clear vinyl and glued onto belt<br />Airbrushed a couple basecoats of gray and then drybrushed with white, cape was airbrushed gray and then white on the back side and black on the inside<br /><br />Gotta give props to Grown Nerd on Fwoosh for a tip he gave me for the first cape design I tried even though I didn't use it.

I did his brown parts with Citadel Scorched Brown. For his armored arm I gave him a wash of Chaos Black and then a heavy drybrush of Boltgun Metal. Used that on his spikes as well. His tiara is painted with Mithril Silver.<br /><br />I gave his sword a couple coats of Silver and his axe I gave a wash of Codex Grey and then a drybrush of MM Ghost Grey, heavier along the cutting edge. The green splotch on his axe happened after he was finished of course - he fell off my work bench and I guess cut himself.<br /><br />Thanx for looking!</strong></span>Buzzy Frethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01461183783812966796noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5131838544755749894.post-41279410871357681632009-02-25T22:52:00.002-05:002009-02-25T23:04:04.965-05:00Corsair Created July 2008<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Corsair/Corsair013.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Corsair/Corsair013.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">Cyclops’ Space Pirate Daddy!

Burroughs Tarzan novel - he asked if I had ever read Conan, which I hadn't, and said that if I liked Tarzan, I would love Conan by Robert E. Howard. I went out and bought the 2nd book in the series that was available at the time - Conan Of Cimmeria - with the Frazetta painting of Conan battling the Frost Giants. Read it and was hooked. I went out and bought another volume of the series every time I had enough money - I still have them. I also spent a lot of time and money trying to track down back issues of CTB, Savage Tales and Savage Sword Of Conan. All those disappeared over time but now I'm lucky enough to be buying all the beautiful Dark Horse reprints of those Marvel stories.<br /><br />Alright, enough of my oldster yakking about the good old days...I was pretty excited when I heard that Marvel Toys was going to be putting out a ML style Conan Action Figure with the LCBH line but like many I was a little disappointed when I got it. I didn't care for the body - I've seen that same body on other figures and customs and it looks great but I just didn't like the way it looked on Conan. So whaddaya gonna do? Make a Custom! I gotta give props to a great Customizer - Zombihamma - as a custom Ka-Zar figure he made gave me the idea on how to approach making this custom Conan.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"><br /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/Conan3009.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/th_Conan3009.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/Conan3008.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/th_Conan3008.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/Conan3013.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/th_Conan3013.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/Conan3014.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/th_Conan3014.jpg" border="0" /></a> </span><br /><p><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"></span></p><p><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;">WIP Pic > </span><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/Conan017.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/SuperJudge1/Conan/th_Conan017.jpg" border="0" /></a> </span></p><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"><p><br />Recipe:<br />Head & Boots - LCBH Conan<br />Torso, Arms, Waist & Legs to Mid-Thigh - TNA Chris Sabin<br />Legs from Mid-Thigh down to Boots - ML Iron Fist<br />Wrists & Hands - ML Wonderman<br />R.
