I am now in my 25th year of customizing, and I say:

Hell, no!

There are comic book, film and TV characters out there that people haven't even considered yet.

The good thing about growing up in England is that we get 99% of American comics, and did even in the 70's and 80's, but we also have a wealth of homegrown characters that haven't made it to mainstream in the rest of the. I have over 30 years worth of 2000AD comics to draw on. When you consider that it is a weekly anthology comic the same size as a Marvel or DC comic, that makes it the equivalent of something like 120 years worth of monthlies. I have only just got started on my set of Marvel figures. There are independent characters I want a shot at. There is the GI Joe movie coming out. I am revisiting certain customs I have done before as my skills improve or I find better fodder for those characters. There are figures I have only loosely thought about until I have had inspiration handed to me by one of you guys.

I say that the future for customising is still bright.

i believe all those things. but i've got something in mind that no-one has ever seen.

call it a butterfly effect if you must, but the sheer genius of it's simplicity will probably cause a natural disaster at some point in time.

bank on it.

I think, the customizing community, itself is what keeps it going for me,
There are so many devoted customizers, and such a constant flow of work, that is what inspires me. allthough due to "real" work load I have not made customs for my self in a while, but I know that all it takes is a look at what others are doing, that helps me, and challenges me. I get emails from all over the world, some other guys are doing similar themed work and, really great stuff and thats what keeps me on my toes!

but you know killas got some top secret stuff yearnin to bust out!
