Description Here's my first crack at all new Predator figures. Using the NECA Predators body base I sculpted a brand new helmet, added armor from various sources, refitted existing armor, and came up with the Arbitrator class of Predator. They're the 'law enforcement' of the predator homeworld according to the book. Preds here was hand painted, every inch with all sorts of washes, highlights, metallics, you name it and I probably used that technique. Whew! His scimitar was made out of a Spy Monkey Demon Blade sword hilt and an old AvP blade.

How much would you say you spend typically on customizing a figure? Do you have loads of spare parts in a bin somewhere or do you go shopping specifically to find the right part? This is awesome by the way.

Since customizing is a full time job for me, 8-10 hours a day. I have 5-20 different projects I work on at the same time so I don't get bored with one. And yes, I have a whole bunch of bins, tubs, etc. My wall looks like the back wall of Mythbusters except it's all toy stuff, lol

Wow! You get to customize as a full time job. I imagine a lot of revenue goes into those bins. So companies like Wizard etc. looked at your stuff and I imagine request a lot of customized work. That is so awesome.
