Great custom!

The only critique I have relates to the color of the hood. From the picture, it looks greyish, and I would have used some kind of blue, in line with the comics illustration (this is where I am supposed to post a picture, but I can't find it).

Other than that, it's perfect!


Thanks. I guess you are meaning his mask, but yeah it's greyish. I based it off of the Hasbro figure for my colors. I interpret the comic colors differently too, see here :D

I like it. The only spot that doens't look production is where the hood meets the torso. I'm assuming the hood is sculpted and I'm just seeing the transition to the plastic. If that's the case, making those smooth transitions is something that will only get better with more sculpting. It is something I haven't mastered yet myself. I have found that if it still looks a little rough after sanding, sometimes a little white glue is able to smooth it over.


The hood is sculpted, but It actually might be the texturing that was existing on the Storm Shadow torso.
