Default USC Trojans All-Time Roster

Since I couldn't make it to Canton, and we have been in a "heat wave" here in Texas, I stayed in and got alot of painting done.

This team was made for MplsTom, and he supplied the decals. They have the uniforms from the 1970's with an all time roster of the players who made an impact in the NFL. I took some artistic liscence on the facemasks, and used almost all on the throwback sprue. I tried to give the players a facemask that had the right "feel".

Almost every figure is has been altered in someway, and several have been completely redone with every joint being changed. I also used alot of greenstuff with much sculpting. Since I just can't make open hands to scale like Megawattz and some others, I figured out that if you very carefully cut and scrape the football out of the hands with the ball, you can make interesting open hands (unfortunately they are all right hands). The cornerbacks were made by cutting up other figures, although they do look similar to the new ones Dewyane Jennings has coming out in the future.

Thanks,
Michael

Default Whoa & Wow

That is just some unbelievable work. I love the OL with each players head angled at a different direction, like their making sure of who they'll be blocking, so life-like. Thx for sharing.

Great work - what a beautiful team.

Can't wait for my next trip to Minneapolis to line up my Michigan team to play them.
