Custom High School Football Figures

Both of these were customer requests for Christmas. The first one is the customer from his playing days and the second is of his brother. While both appear to be simple repaints - a lot of extras were added making these two customs some of the most labor intensive I've worked on.

I always stress a good custom is about nailing all the fine details. All the equipment added was exactly like the customer wore. The knee brace was completely constructed out of plastic and then the pants and sock were sculpted over it. The elbow pads and gloves are also custom sculpted.

The Douglas butterfly constrictor was constructed by me from plastic. The shoes were resculpted to match the Vick Nikes he wore. The gloves were also resculpted to match the Cutters he wore. All the pride stickers were created in Adobe Illustrator and individually cut out and applied to perfectly match the reference photos - all 44 pride stickers are there.
