This is probably my first, last, and only venture into doing any kind of "venomized" troop.

I wanted to mimic the look like the skin of an octopus I saw on the Discovery Channel. Yep, I'm a geek.

At first I went with solid black eyes. They looked like a gloppy painting mistake, so I shifted to the orange/yellow eyes instead.

This figure was also a good way to move a Dr. Mindbender chest and Monkeywrench arms out of my loose figure pile. Unless you're making some kind of Big Brawler figure, it's hard to find a use for the Mindbender chest.

Sadly, I have to say that i am disappointed with this custom, not that there is anything wrong with it as you really did a great job, but when I saw the title I was hoping for some kind of monstrous 6 armed mutation with suckers sculpted on the underside of his arms and on the palms of his hands and an enormous sack-like thing on the back of his head.....maybe I should do something like what I just described in my "Deep Sea Danger!" line...... :rotfl:

I like the name!
Custom itself is pretty OK.

I LOVE IT!!!

Throw on a Nemesis Enforcer tentacle backpack (Painted in the same pattern of course) and you've got a winner!
