Amazing figures are going to emerge from this thread, can't wait to see them. The sculpt is amazing.

If you are going to do a Joker Hanouman, please do a Batman in your style to go alongside. Pleeeeease.
 
Elvis I'm surprised to see you stumped. After all the customs I've seen you do I would have though putting some metal strips into a fist would be a piece of cake. I've already made my set of claws using the medicom comic version wolvie and the fists from the ht wolverine. They're not placed exactly at the top of the fist between the knuckles they're a little lower but if I wanted to have them sitting in the position you suggested I could have pulled it off using the same technique I used for the placement I went with.
All I did was mark the placement of the claws with a scalpel. Then got a precision screw driver that was the closest thickness to the claws and made an in dent in the fist. Then using my hot plate on my stove I heated up the screw driver, not too much just enough to soften the plastic with out fully melting or burning the plastic. Then just very slowly carved out the unwanted plastic from the fist checking the size of the holes depth and diameter and angle of the claws. I just repeated this technique until the claws fit and were at the right angle and depths. Now being that this was a trial and error process some of the holes came out a touch wider than they should have. But its not very noticeable and I think the claws turned out awesome. The actual placement and style of the claws is open the artistic interpretation and really comes down to what wolverine you want made. I chose that positioning because I like that position and once they were glued in they are really sturdy and not likely to break easily. I also like the medicom design of the claws because they have that triangular look to them as opposed to the movie look. I also like the look of the flared out claws rather than the dead straight or curved slightly inward look. The only problem I have with my claws are they're not metal but oh well.

Lol. Fair enough. Although I don't put myself anywhere near the abilities of you elvis, you set the benchmark man. It was actually your Logan with the punisher resculpt that inspired me to do a wolverine/Logan. That punisher head looked perfect and I had that punisher lying around so I decided to have a go. Then I saw this sculpt and I was like this s**ts on anything that I could do lol.
