Hey Guys, I have done the following customs a while ago (about a couple months) and never found some time to take pics to post them. Well there it is, and please comments are appreciated!!! So, since I love History, I wanted to put our favorite slayer in the past, sort of Middle Ages era, and I wanna make a full set with display and more characters: Giles, Willow, Anya, possibly Tara, and some bad guys. Here they are: Buffy: GD Buffy head, Vamp Willow torso, OMWF Dawn arms and The Gift Dawn skirt and Legs Dawn: The Gift Dawn head, OMWF Dawn skirt, Anyanka legs, torso and arms Xander: Season 7 Xander head and torso, The Master legs, Fool for love Spike arms I displayed them in an already finished decor with a Werewolf (Figure from Dracula) Thank you guys to be kind as they truly are the first customs I am showing here! But that doesn't mean you can't be honest!LMAO

What a great fantasy scene. Did you do any sculpting or are they heads and bodyparts swop? I like the colours you have used for their oufits. Zander looks very brave in his costume, like a Knight. Dawn is still innocent looking, looks like she is back from milking the cows, with the bucket! Look forward to seeing the rest of your display when complete, especially wicca Willow

These are awesome, Arno! I love the smooth paintjob and the overall fantasy theme. Can't wait for the rest of the gang! ;D

Arno, I love them! I remember you talking about your plan to make these. They are turning out so beautifully!
Buffy looks so sweet in her milk maid outfit. Willow's torso with the bodice is very sexy. And you've converted Anyanka's necklace into a cross necklace really well. I've tried that before and it's very delicate work.
I especially love how manly and sexy Xander looks in his middle ages garb. Your use of parts is excellent. You've managed to combine parts with modern clothes in such a creative way that they look old-fashioned.
I'm so impressed with how you used the Anyanka arms on Dawn! I couldn't figure out what arms those were at first because they didn't look at all demony. I've never thought that Anyanka arms could be used for customs, but you absolutely proved me wrong. The flow really well with Dawn's torso.
These are so cute, especially with your background and werewolf. I'm glad you are back with your displays. Will we get to see those displays you told us you had back in Paris? Are they out of storage yet?
It's so cool to see you posting. I've missed you, buddy!

Thank you guys!!!!!
Shep: No sculpting on these, I only do when it's necessary, and I kinda like the manufactury look on action figures; Plus, I am not experienced enough to use lots of sculptey: So it just good old head and body swap!
I am waiting to get more parts to finish the rest of the gand and add some villains.
I have so many customs planned that I don't know where to start, a bit overwhelming!!!!!!!!!!!
Lior: THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!How was your birthday???
Maria: Yep, that's it! I mentionned that to you last time I saw you, and I gotta say thanks cuz you gave me some part!!!!!!
I think my favorite of the three above is Buffy, even though her arms are a bit long, but it doesn't look that bad anyway. Xander was the hardest to make as I had to cut The Master body and I couldn't figure out a way to stick the torso and the legs together...I ended up gluing the parts!lol
My other displays, yes I'll post them as soon as I can take good pics, and few other customs too!
