The 1972 Miami Dolphins: The Perfect Team
 
2 Attachment(s)
I am not a Dolphins fan but I love this team. Back when I was young, I hated this team because they pounded my Vikes into submission. I just wanted them to go away and stop all the pain! I hated Csonka, Kiick, Morris, and Warfield!

But now, in my "old" age, I find myself rooting for that team and their accomplishments. So when it came to creating the greatest Dolphins team, it was a no-brainer.

This team has got to get prepared to take on Johnny Unitas, John Mackey and Bubba Smith so I want to do them justice. I am not the greatest customizer on the planet but I do like what I do.

These players were created in all of 2 hours. The techniques are easy was you master them (get a customizing DVD) and to paint, grass them and establish a base of players takes anywhere from 4-6 hours of quality labor. Right now, I have created the different poses, applied the paint, did the grass, and painted the shoes how I saw them in photos. I will do the defense later but this is a clean team. Now I apply my own chinstraps, the eyes to the players and my facemask. I will have to do some creative things to make some of the players look like circa 1970's-type and may not achieve it sometimes. However, the ride will be fun.

hmmmm
 
just a question... and I dont know how to phrase this to make it not sound dirty... so i will just say it

"Do the players balls put them off balance?"

-it really is an honest question I am not trying to be funny.

The mind is not a terrible thing to waste and I continue to try to use my mind. The 24 poses, I think I came up within a matter of 2-3 hours tops.

One day I will catalogue all this info.

As usual, you show your talent in making some of the most dynamic poses of the community thmbsp$

One question, how do you play the figure #62 (and the figures with "air footballs") ? Or do you keep them for showcase, and simply swap them with "basic" ones during the play ?
