Whether sharing a grand adventure, hardship, or a thing of beauty, the experience is always better when you have someone to share it with. I count my blessings in that simple truth and I'm sure this couple did the same during last night's sunset at the beach.
Won't you come see about me
I'll be alone dancing, you know it, baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out
And love's strange: so real in the dark
Think of the tender things
That we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets in your heart, baby

Enjoy you saturday!

As I grow older and the Earth grows smaller, I realize how important it is to take the time to observe and enjoy the the simplest of pleasures. It is a difficult thing to do today in this hurry up, high tech world we live in.....but take the time to just sit by the edge of a pond or on an outcropping of a hillside and watch the sunset and enjoy the simple pleasures. It brings such joy.....and it doesn't cost a thing :-)

while we were sitting in our car in the parking lot at Stink Beach, a van pulled in near us, the back door opened, and out tumbled a wiggle of little boys, the oldest maybe 7, all excited, the two mommies trying to gather up beach gear and also keep them herded, they were so cute, and then off they all happily skipped across the road to the beach. By the time we got down there, three kites were already high in the air with a delighted boy attached to each of them. The wind was perfect, a light stiff breeze, such a simple pleasure, it was wonderful to witness.

Just a simple little teaser for my Spartan-Verse Catwoman figure. Her design is a little simple, and I'm going for a COMPLETELY different approach on this figure. In other news, Scarecrow is coming slowly along, I actually started working on Batman *Applause!*, and I'm waiting for a lot of bigfigs (to customize) to come in the mail. Thanks for looking! :)
P.S. if all goes well, I should be uploading picture of the finished figure tonight.
UPDATE – Oct. 14th
I know it’s been a LONG time since I’ve posted something on here, and I know people have been asking for updates (rightly so) – so I figured I’d provide some in a simple post here.
Two things must be made clear first – 1) my printer, who I’ve worked with forever and who produces the best prints of any printer I’ve worked with, has become very successful this past year and as such is trying to catch up with the growth of their business. As such, their times to process orders has more than tripled since the beginning of the year. This has caused many of the prints and test prints, etc. to be delayed by more than 2 months each. So things are slower to get printed now than ever before. 2) we are very close to getting our setup exactly as we need it with the injection mold company that we work with so that our parts are to the exact specifications and quality that we want, and that you expect. The injection molding process, and learning what is needed to create good parts, has been a huge learning process for us. The good news is that after months and months of working and tweaking things, we are very close to having our first parts (for Night Crusader and Original Super Soldier – and 1 surprise figure) ready to send to the printer.
With that being said, here’s some updates on some figs coming soon…
Homemade Arachnid Hero
Our first update will be for all those who ordered the Homemade Arachnid Hero. We are anticipating that this figure will be sent out to our presales customers and resellers the last weekend of October (2 weeks from now) and will go on sale on the website a week or two after that. We will try to post pictures as soon as he arrives.
Night Crusader
The test prints for the Night Crusader have been finalized and approved and we are all ready to go to print it. I usually don’t share pictures of the figures before they are completed, but since you all have been waiting so patiently for this figure, I thought I’d bend at least one rule to make you feel confident in your upcoming fig). However, we are awaiting the injection molded parts to arrive, so that we can align the head print exactly with the cowl part (we want to make sure his eyes are aligned correctly in those hole). We received the most recent samples from the mold and we still need to make a couple of final adjustments, so that it is to the exact quality that I know we all expect from the top customizers. He should be completed before Black Friday (week of Thanksgiving), if everything goes to plan. I will post an update if that is any sooner.
Original Super Soldier
The custom helmet part is being completed at the same time as the Night Crusader cowl, as they share the same mold, and as such is facing many of the same needs for updated changes. However, we are still also processing the prints still for this figure. The hope is that this will be available a couple weeks after Night Crusader is released.
Surprise New Figure
Along with the Original Super Soldier, we will be releasing a third, not yet published custom figure that will include 1 custom headpiece and a printed accessory. I think you guys should be very happy and surprised by this guy – can’t wait to show you! When the part is completed and we send him in for printing, we’ll provide a render of him to let you know what’s coming!
That’s all for now. I would first and foremost like to thank you all for your unwavering patience and kind understanding while I bring Phoenix Customs to a new era of custom figs. However, this kind of growth is not without hiccups and challenges, that is for sure. What IS for sure, is that we are not going to be bringing about products that can’t compete with the best out there. We will NOT sacrifice quality. We want to bring our figures to the next evolution, where unique custom parts and top quality printing go hand-in-hand. We can’t wait to bring these pre-ordered figs to life in the next couple months and to show you what we have in store for the coming months of the new year! So many good figs that I can’t wait to release!!
Take care!

Sometimes it's easy to overlook simple beauty, this is perennial cornflower or knapweed.(Centaurea montana) Didn't have to go far...it's in my back garden.
