Thanks for visiting my Gallery of "figure" models, which consists of characters from a variety (mixture) of themes, from comic books, to sci-fi TV and movie.
The diorama above shows the first five Horizon models that I ever built, in a variation of a scene from'Maximum Carnage', the Spider-Man mini-series from 1993. All of the models are 1/6 scale, and thus this warehouse scene is pretty big. It was scratch-built built by a friend of mine (Tom Sosenko). I added Wolverine, which was actually from a kit which had him in his pre-X-Men brown and orange costume. I modified him to have the classic yellow and blue costume, including the shoulder pads, but I didn't put the tiger claws on his upper body. Later, I built Horizon's X-Men version of Wolverine which was "much cooler" ... see it in the 'Marvel Comics' Models Gallery (link in left-hand column).
Currently I have nine Galleries of Models:
- Marvel Comics characters
- DC & Independent Comics characters
- Sci-Fi characters (excluding Star Wars)
- Star Wars characters
- HeroClix game pieces, customized and repaints
- ToyBiz kits
- Arcane Legions Gaming pieces
- Ceramic Figurines
- USS Slater refurbish

commentary on the kits I have built, it may be helpful to have some
