I used a WWE Boogeyman as my base figure. This was my second custom ever. I was still sculpting with play-doh at this time, which I do not recommend. The gnasher shotgun was even made out of play-doh. I used toothpicks for the spikes on his head. I love the Gears of War series and just had to make a custom of this unique looking locust. For having only play-doh to sculpt with, I think I did a decent job.
