How I feel after having her for some time. I do wish they went with white over the grey, but I still like the sculpt.

Mine came in today....paint apps are crisp clean...very well painted....the forced night effect shows in the paint app details....i would say the attention to paint app details for that effect is really good...like if you look in the hood of the masked portrait the tiny blue green lines get darker from outside to inside the hoodie...same goes for the rest of the body and face where there is supposed to be weaker lighting.....no wonky eyes on mine....low light cabinets would work really well with that forced night effect...i can say Sideshow really put in a lot of detail into this piece...

Gwen

Gwen came in a couple of weeks ago but I wanted to wait for Miles before taking pics. Absolutely love them both!

The OG Spider-man is still the best one on the market IMO, and the tilted base works well enough with these new ones (even if it's not forced perspective).










Bonus shot of my display wall. Half are customs made by me. I should show them off at some point!

Love the customs in your display. I am starting to get into customs now as well as so many other characters are not being touched by licensed companies. Sad, as there are so many pieces that collectors would love to have in their collections to complete a line or have a favorite character represented, etc...
Case and point.....
Nightwing!!!!
And you have two!!!! one conversion and the other a custom individual.

I just pre ordered a museum Nightwing custom that looks amazing!!! Can't wait.

And............

would LOVE to have a Kitty Pryde. So cool that you have one. Cool concept too!!!!!!!

Nice.

I also just ordered my custom Joker. Love the influence art by Gabriele Dell'Otto.

I know which nightwing you mean, I do like that one but wish there was more of a bird motif on his chest

Agreed.

And maybe after the next set of proto pics I may address it if need be.

But so far, it is looking amazing and with the smaller footprint, will work perfect with my displays.

I like that too. So can Lockheed phase through objects by himself, or only when Kitty is touching him?

Thanks! Yeah I got tired of waiting for Sideshow to make him so I made him myself...twice! He's my favorite hero so I figured you can't have too many.

Also made a costume a few years back, and then made a mannequin for it and put it in the corner of the room.

Thanks, it's based on this art. The figure was sculpted by another artist though I resculpted the hair and completely redesigned the base. It's 2ft x 2ft total! Also, pretty sure Lockheed can't phase alone.
