Default Kicking and punting poses.

Can anyone tell me a way to make a realistic kicker, punter, and holder?
Thanks,
Taylor

Default Special Team Players

Taylor,

I am doing a DVD on Special teams players because so many people have been looking for special team type players and have asked me over the years.

I can tell you that I create about 5 different kickers, 3 deep snappers and 2 holders. I create any punt returner that you want.

These all come from the 24 stock poses.

The ones that you are about to see are from the following poses:

The rotating kicker - Gunslinger (He actually kicks!)
The holder - Menacing Enforcer (Who would have thought a blocker could be a holder?)
The punter - The Blitzer Pose with the Howie's left shoulder.
The punt returner - The Crippler

Most of the figures took less than 2 minutes to make. When you are making kickers that kick and QBs that throw, it takes a little more time but most of us want that "still" image and the Gunslinger, Menacing Enforcer and a few other poses are the most versatile poses that I have.

Once I finish painting the players and decaling and taking a far-back shot, you will be able to see the "original" figure in the customs.

Reg, you do great work but seriously....maybe it's just my warped mind but you got to change where that wire is on that center. That just don't look right!! especially with that football on the end of it...never let your center eat beans before playing!!

Hey Reg

Have you thought of using a small clear plastic tube to replace that wire ?

Default The Long Snapper

Wolf,

You said it. Not me!

Reg,

I think the wire would look best coming from the grass on the snapper's stand
at an arc. Most of the wire can be hidden between his legs. Moreover, use only the football that is passing through his legs. Have one hand sending the ball and the other hand set to block. Remove the set football.

Wolf, you're not alone.

It was the first thing that caught my eye.

Holy Cow!

Talking Reggie...I love you... "butt" !

Reggie...I love your figures...especially since they are Cowboys...but that long snapper figure is making me feel a "little dirty"

At least I will have good material for my priest this weekend during confession!
