I'm loving the progress on this, too cool. Are the claws more bone or blade like? If blade, styrene works really well for Wolvie blade type claws, easy to shape, sharpen, and keep uniform. The sculpting process on this is downright fascinating to me. The legs are pure win so far.

Thanks guys,

Daremo, since the charachter was only in two comics, ever, it's hard to say what the claws are supposed to be made of, it looks like the symboite suit is covering the blades in the comic, they are tubular and very thick, kinda like what I got going here, I just cant fine tune them here, I just dont have the supplies.

Oh, and except for one spot, he still retains the full articulation the figure had to begin with.

He never really had any articulation mid-torso anyway. I've got some Venoms laying around, I may need to copy this.

This place lacks the sophisticated refinements that Kabul had, like goats milk Dairy Queen, Pizza Hut and a place to buy snacks.

honestly, I love the sculpting all except for the claws... I think leaving them as strait toothpicks would have worked realy well instead of trying to add the sculpy onto them. Or using plastic like someone else suggested so they would be more blade like....

They will look just fine once I am finished with them, there is just a limit to what I can do here. I need to get back to working on him!

Update time finally,

Well, the spider on the chest bulked him up ( a couple pieces broke off, gotta fix them) a bit more than I planned so I bulked up his arms (I am in the process of bulking his left arm) I also stripped off the lower legs, it wasnt working. I am redoing them, I will loose a little articulation, but oh well.
Also started on the spider on his back, which got a bit off center. Damn.
