Hi everyone, here is my custom figure of Demise from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. He is actually my first custom project, and so far is my best. He was inspired by the announcement of figma Link from Good Smile Company and Max Factory. I started him way back in July 2012 and actually finished 90% of him by August of that year. However, I had the idea to make individual scales out of black sequins. Ugh, describing that process as tedious would be an understatement. Any way I decided after all this time to finally post him on here because I wanted my first project to finally see the light of day.

Recipe:
Head - Capcom vs SNK 2 Akuma figure (I actually grafted the face onto the House of M Hulk's head so the peg would still fit.
Hair/fire - Akuma's flame effects (cut and glued to fit, painted orange and yellow)
Body - Marvel Legends House of M Hulk
Scales - black sequins (NEVER again)
towel/waistcloth - Microfiber cleaning cloth (added magnets to keep it on the figure
Sword- Plastic sheeting, aves apoxie scult, a screw, and craft jewels

This figure gave the confidence to continue working on customs. Any advice or critique is welcome and appreciated.
