Hey guys. Zildjian introduced me to the forum and has been bugging me :D to post some pictures already. I've been customizing NFL sportspick figures for a few years now.
I have a leader class Optimus & Megatron on my bench I hope to tackle someday along with a T-800 Horizon vinyl kit.
Here is some of my work. I try to avoid doing repaints unless requested by a customer. Most of my work is kitbashing and sculpting with apoxy sculpt.

Welcome to the boards! They look great! :thumbup:
The face sculpting looks awesome, specially on the coach figure. Any chance of a comparison pic with the real person? :)

Ahhh, that would probably help!

Really glad to be a part of the boards. I have been in awe of everyone's work here. For many of you, your reputations proceed you as I have been a fan for quite some time having seen the work on eBay & individual websites.
I someday would love to get into TF kitbashing but I don't have the disposable income to get started on that yet. People have no idea how much start-up cost is involved to build a decent inventory. I've spent hundreds on parts/supplies for my sportspick hobby and those figures only cost $10pc. I dropped well over $100 picking up Optimus, Megatron and some paints!

WOW! These are amazing. The old school one is GREAT! Didn't the packers wear their really old throwback uniforms a couple of weeks ago?
The WIP pics blew me away.

Yeah, they wore a modified version of there 1920s duds. I'm hoping to make a Rodgers or Matthews in those when I get some spare time.
