If any of you are familiar with the Dark Tower series, then you know it is truly epic in scale. I find the characters and their adventures fascinating and would like to eventually do a whole line of figures. I've done three versions of the main character (The Gunslinger) so far, the first one was one of my first customs, and have come a long way.


Here is the first one.

This was the first custom where I used cloth to create the outfit.

This is the second one. Gunslinger Revisit.
By this time, my skills had grown and I knew way more about using cloth on 6in figures, thanks mostly to the customizer Glorbes' tutorials.

I used the same body as the first one and stripped off all the clothes to redo them. I also modded the head a bit.

Just recently the right arm broke on this guy so it's permanently reaching for his gun in the holster, oh well, at least I get to keep it for myself.

This is the latest one. Roland at the Tower.

This figure was my first commission, the guy was impressed by my work on the others and is also a huge fan of the books, so I told him I would make him one. This look is based off his appearance in the last book, and I used the hardcover dust jacket pic for reference.

I sculpted the head myself in order to get the right look, I like how it turned out. The outfit as all cloth and I sculpted the belt, straps, belt buckle, and holster out of Green Stuff.

I'm also commissioned to make a base for him so once it's done, I'll take some more pictures of him doing some stuff.

Let me know what you think.
