I thought i might share with my good friends on this Public-Free Board my entries for Customcon 13.What i am essentially doing is expanding DCD's Kingdom Come line so the paint apps are not my usual style as i've tried to replicate the apps done on the original 13 figures. They're a bit rushed for my liking but since i have to have them all in by next Monday i was against the clock.Sorry for the not so great pictures i really need to invest in a better Camera. Anyways here they are,hope you like them. *just improved the pics a bit* THE RAY III GREEN ARROW GREEN LANTERN/JADE AQUAMAN II STEEL

Hey thanks so much guys,they're not as perfect as i would like them to be but time constraints got the better of me. Kevin i'm mad for Kingdom Come but DCD as always never goes past the 3 waves on a line for some reason and there are so many cool characters that are just begging to be done.I plan to expand this line a lot more yet just without the rush from now on.

HOLY....!!!! Man alive, these are gorgeous. Just check out the detail. (Especially on Green Arrow.) Unlike so many other Ross-based customs I've seen, these don't look like endless repaints of the same three bases. You've really put thought into these.
Amazing work, my friend. I can guarantee these will be a big hit at the CustomCon.
Now, when are ya gonna make my set? ;D

A fantastic line-up. The detailing and paint work is second to none. They look 'too good' to be action figures if you know what I mean. You fellas push and push the boundary with every post. These are like the real expensive figurines you see for sale in comic stores. You should be proud of these mate. Great work.

Thanks Martin for such kind words,you guys are all so great! Will,this Steel won't be for sale as my KC collection is one i'll never part with.But if you ever come across a DCD"Return of Superman Steel"figure i'll be glad to make one up for you. Here's a group shot with some DCD KC figs for comparison.

Thanks so much Jason and Kevin,as i said it felt very odd painting so differently to my usual style.But with so many projects waiting i was never going to repaint all the existing KC figures.It was really important to me to make sure these figures matched in. And Glorbes,i'm really so glad you like them.
