Outfits are great, but the faces look like they were attacked by hornets.

Well, they don't look nearly as inflated in person; I'm not stupid enough to look at a sculpt that would seem attacked by hornets and think to myself, "Yep, it's good to go - time to bake it!" Part of this is just a camera thing (the pic below was taken with my phone instead in an effort to somewhat illustrate that). But, as I stated, I'm going to sand down the cheeks to try to minimize the swollen appearance. I appreciate the feedback, and want to thank you. Constructive criticism is one of the benefits of posting my custom figs here. Hopefully, I can eventually earn positive feedback with the same eagerness that the negative was delivered with here. Thank you again.

Dont be so defensive, were mostly joking around. If you had a sense of humor then you would have seen what we saw. We both said we liked the clothing, you just gotta work on your sculpts. Positive criticism doesnt make you better, it only makes you accept mediocrity. Sometimes i look forward to the crap i take because then i get to work on stuff more and perfect it. Sometimes i didnt see what was wrong. Toughen up, there isnt a trophy for everything you do in the real world.

My tone obviously came across differently than I intended. My bad. I'm not trying to get positive criticism when it isn't deserved. I actually hate that, and I've seen more than enough examples of it in forums like this. So, I couldn't agree with you more. My point was that I want to eventually earn positive criticism, and have the same eagerness applied when/if I do. I genuinely thank you both for your positive and negative critiques. It will make me better, and I thought I had made that point clear. Feel free to bash whatever I post; I'm a big boy, and I can take it. All I hope for is equal measure of earned criticism. I'm working to eventually make 35 different MGS custom figs, so you'll have plenty of opportunity to point out their flaws. And I really hope you do. That's why I finally decided to join and post here. I much prefer criticism of any sort over silent antipathy. Please, by all means, bring on the negative criticism. I'm not fragile as you think. Trust me.
 
Elvis's Customs are great, theyre just never accurate to the source material, so when I say who's that I mean who's that guy in naked snakes clothes.

don't mind them, seems few members here have a beef with Elvis. maybe they are jealous with the superb works Elvis did on their 2 favorite games Metal Gear & Resident Evil.

Oh you really went the jealous line? :lol If you can believe it, I thought you were actually smarter than that.

IIRC you were one of the little girls saying you would kill me to get one of those. You were keyboard warrior coward then, just like you are now.
 
I dont mean great in the grandest scale, i mean great like "yeah, thats great". Theyre pretty cool, but like i said, not accurate.

Just in case anyone was curious, the S17B Phicen, now TBLeague, body is a pretty close match for the ZC Toys Quiet headsculpt. It's a tad brighter or more flesh colored than the body, but it's hardly noticeable. As skintone matching goes, especially in this hobby, it's a solid fit.

The S10D I used for the Mr Toys head was slightly off too, but not very noticeable either. I'd say it's as close as you can get either way.

I don't have a pic, but I'll try to get one sometime soon. I have a spare ordered as this one is being used to replace a Kumik body.
 
Yeah, that one matches the Mr Toys head.

The ZC Toys head is better for the S17B. Maybe the new S23B, if you want her to have muscle definition?

the way you type just shows what kind of moronic online bully you are. i don't get what Elvis done to you 2 but folks should be fair. his customs are great, not just great like good/decent/acceptable or for it's time, it's still great. i don't get in terms of inaccuracy, how much percentage are you looking at to be deemed bad.

i'm just being honest about his works. it's great, especially those sub characters in the 2 games. unless you guys are talking about that koopa guy.

and obviously people selling them looking for some good money coz they need money for more important stuffs other than toys?

how bout you guys post your customs as a comparison on how bad Elvis works are. I've seen other great custom MGS figures here so i'm not biased towards Elvis.

i hope you guys had fun driving him out of this forum. this forum is where people share they works and relax, i don't get why some folks here have to make things so personal. WellCQC maybe sarcastic, but at least he's not as bad as you Snake. I've seen the way you respond to other members here, i'm sure i'm not the only member that thinks you're just another cyber bully.

We drove him out? :lol dude, that was like four years ago. And why does it always have to come down to a dumb pissing contest with customs? It comes down to personal taste and it's completely irrelevant to even talk about that **** now. I don't know why you had to dig something up so ****ing old at this point. No one was even talking about him or his customs.

So I'm a moronic bully because I call you out on your dumb bull **** every single time? :lol you're HATED in this section, among others. Believe me, I've conversed with plenty of people that hate your ****ing guts. Many people have reported you and gone to Dave about you, including myself, because all you offer is turmoil but the incompetents that run this place refuse to do anything about you. You seem to forget when you trolled the Batman thread for a week with Iron Man ****.

The way you type, is very much akin to Engrish most of the time. You and one other I need not mention threatened me on here, so don't talk to me about being a bully you fairy.

You offer nothing to this place but indigestion. You never post pics of anything you allegedly own, but you give all the advice in the world to people about **** you don't even know about.

So please, piss off you worm.

Not sure why the MGS threads have to be such a magnet for ********. So what if someone doesn't like a custom. Calling them out for something someone else did years ago will sure change their mind. Good job Potato keep up the good work.
