This is a quite simple but much needed custom. I had read the classic Marvel/ DC Crossover comic, Superman And Spider-Man, and I liked the way they portrayed the Parasite. His colors were simple, his shape was simple, like a man who was burned by radiation. I noticed that the infinite heroes Shadow Demons sitting in the toy box closely resembled him, so I played on that. I actually used academic level acrylic with a light brush over with water to get a shading effect. It looks good, but the figure feels stickier to the touch for some reason, even after I covered him with multiple coats of lacquer. He can be handled quite a bit, but this guy is best as a collector piece.
