Happy New Year

2020 was not the year we all hoped for but at 4StarCustoms we made the best of it and went out with a bang. I teamed up with Sports Memorabilia Showcase to help create a one of a kind diorama Memory Table. "The Catch" was carefully recreated with 49ers Joe Montana throwing the game sealing pass to Dwight Clark. Using a combination of custom McFarlane Sportspick figures, sculpting and 3D printing, "The Catch" comes to life inside SMS's beautifully handcrafted custom coffee table design. There is nothing like this out there.

2020 Update

I've been very busying at the workbench posting on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I wanted to drop in a few custom NFL McFarlane figures that I've done the past two years.

A look at the NFL's Young Guns with the Raven's Lamar Jackson, Chiefs Patrick Mahomes and the Texans Deshaun Watson.


I also got the chance to recreate this famous moment featuring Ezekiel Elliot.

Custom NFL McFarlane Diorama-Rama

I've had the opportunity to work on some amazing multi-figure pieces over the years and especially lately. Here is a look at some of my favorites custom NFL McFarlane dioramas including the Fearsome Foursome and legendary Vince Lombardi.

Some New Customs!

I'm always busy working on custom McFarlane NFL Sports figures but all my work get's posted to Facebook. I thought I would update my blog to show some of my favorite figures I've done since my last post. It's a nice mix of Hall of Famers and key moments from NFL history, like JJ Watt's broken nose, Santonio Holmes amazing Super Bowl Catch and Terrell Davis' Mile High Salute.

A little old school - A little new school

The best place to see all my current and past projects is at facebook.com/4StarCustoms but if you're not a fan of Facebook (and I don't blame you) I'll try to be better about posting some work here.

Here are few customs that I've created since my last post. Enjoy!

Custom NFL McFarlane • Harold "Red" Grange • aka The Galloping Ghost

Two customs that have been on my bucket list for a long time were Jim Thorpe and Red Grange. I've yet to make Thorpe but I was so excited when an order came in to make Grange. The pose is based off the statue that stands outside the University of Illinois. The jersey and paint job are based off his uniform for the the Chicago Bears.

Custom NFL McFarlane 1960's Era Packers Practice

Using parts from over a dozen different McFarlane figures, I've recreated an 1960's era Packer's practice. The sled was built from scratch using all different types of styrene plastic. Vince Lombardi's jacket and hat were modeled after several photos of him wearing similar garb. This is by far my largest and most ambitious work. I figured, I haven't updated my blog in over a year so what better post to come back with.

Remember, I currently only keep my Facebook page up to date, so please "like" me on Facebook to see my entire body of work as well as new and upcoming projects.
