Re: Custom McFarlane

That's amazing work. How did you get the "pose" for Tyree? I thought you were modifying existing McFarlane figures, but they'd never make one resembling anything near that catch.

Great job!

Re: Custom McFarlane

Tory Holt's body and head. Cut the neck and used some stuff to get it on an angle. Bledsoe's arms. For Harrison it is McNair's body and head with Vick arms.

Thinking of making another one, but with some more sculpting and cutting. Get Tyree's right leg kicked out more, and more re-positioning of the legs. Also made the skin tone for Harrison too dark.

He does shows in Woodbridge often as he is a BC Sports exclusinve.

Re: Custom McFarlane

Sunday, Marshall did a signing in Westchester, just north of NYC. Brought the display to him to sign. He asked me to email him a picture of it. He did, he put it up on his facebook. I did the same and he went on and complimented it (yeah, he is on my friend's list). Anyways, he now wants me to make something for him as does his brother. Leonard wants him and LT lining up against Tuinei and Nate Newton. His brother wants marshall and LT against Jacoby. I feel like a little kid.

Re: Custom McFarlane

Finished the set for Leonard.

Coggs Sports Customs - Giants vs Cowboys

Gave it to him last Sunday, he was in town for the opener. He signed 34 items for me so I can sell them, it was actually his idea for me to bring a ton of stuff. 10 Giants mini-helmets, 5 LSU mini-helmets, 3 16x20's, 7 mini footballs, 9 8x10 photos. He is a great guy. Here are some pics of the meeting. I am the white guy who needs a diet, had actually started weight watchers the week before I met up with him.

Re: Custom McFarlane

Man, that is awesome. I remember seeing this post back when you first posted it. I collect some of the McFarlane figures and actually bought a custom made Sean Taylor last year. I wish I had the ability to make these, I'm just not artistic at all.

Re: Custom McFarlane

How much of this is actually built by the owner? Just painting? Purchase individual pieces and assemble?
Going out in the forest and taking down a Redwood, and break out your trusted Whittlin' knife and goin' at it...........like Mark Twain, old school?

I take McFarlane figures, break them down, swap parts, some sculpting if necessary, then prime the parts, paint and decal, put back together and spray with 2 different finishes. One to seal the paint and provide UV protection against fadint, and the other to take away the shine. Except for the helmets, use a spray that will enhance the shine.

Wished that I could take credit for it, but these were done by a guy who does all my customs, Patrick Winter. This is website

SportsCustomsOnline.com

Check out his Sean Taylor figure that he did. It is really awesome.
