Just wanted to show what I was able to do with a product my wife found. Moldable plastic. It doesn't sculpt, but I feel like i have had success with accessories. I did Nekron's scythe, there is a little Apoxy Sculpt where the lantern is in the corner.

Nice! I really like the paint work you did on the handle. It has a real nice worn wood effect. :halgrin:

Cool. I've been wanting to try a scythe myself. I've been wanting to try a lot of things myself :(. Now play that tiny violin for me!

Here are a few figures that I'm working on. I picked up a Gears of War figure for less than $5 bucks at a FYE store, and I thought he could make for a cool Cable. I'm also making a more in scale Bane, a Marvel Now Vision, and another Wonder Man.

Alright, thinking caps. In the planning stages of doing the remaining Secret Six characters, can anyone think of a toy I might be able to get the clown collar for Ragdoll?

Maybe a DCD Hush Scarecrow collar could work?

I did a quick check on eBay they looks like they are pretty reasonably priced.
