Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe- Gladiator) (Gladiator) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:102046
Name:Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe- Gladiator)
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Gladiator
Creator:Mattttt  
Date Added:August 23, 2019
Base Figure:NECA Perseus
Height:7.00 inches
Critiques:Requested!
And here is the Spaniard! A character I have long hoped for ... without success.
The absence of Russell Crowe's head at the right scale has long been a drag on its achievement.
The Leo customs figure motivated me a lot, but another element decided me, that I will reveal soon in a diorama with this character.

Basic Figure: Perseus (Clash of the Titans) unsurprisingly!
I reshaped Sam Worthington's face to make it look like Russell Crowe's as best as I could (forehead, eyebrows, cheeks, nose)
I changed the shield and the sword, which I extended.
I reshaped the tunic, added the straps in front and behind.
I carved the helmet, the breastplate, the shoulder pad, the leggings, the boots.

A big job of which I am very proud!
See you soon for the diorama (soon finished) !

Wow. You really nailed the likeness with your sculpting-- I thought this was going to be a modified Jor-El head. Nice work!

Thank you Chief !
I thought about using a Jor-El figure but the scale and level of details were not appropriate...

Yeah, I imagine it would've been super-tiny. All the more reason your work here is impressive!

What I appreciate about customs like this one is how you’ve chosen an appropriate base and then sculpted the details and not just settled with what was already there but made the character properly. It pays off and this is an awesome custom with a really good likeness. Really good job!

Wow! Thank you very much Deaditor.
It's true that I try to get as close as possible to the movies, even if it takes me some time. To be honest, on that one, I didn't change the bracelets!

Hahah a minor detail like that is acceptable lol I don’t assume everyone will literally do every single part but things like vambraces or boots isn’t the part people are going to go oh god that’s so lazy lol. It’s the helmet and the cuirass face and overall paintjob people are going to focus on. The fact that you worked on the sword and the shield are a bonus as I don’t know many who bother with that.
