I didn't realize how talented you are. Regrettably it took Glenn's passing for me to check out your channel. I hope you would continue where Glenn left off. Doing reviews, 30 days of Halloween.. etc. Glenn is my favorite TH-camr. I will dearly miss him.
Just sayin but you and Glenn have been a huge inspiration to me as a customizer and all about collector. You both are immensely talented people and your penchant for humor really is timely and appreciated in the "serious" plague that others adorn there videos with. That said Craig I really appreciate you sharing such personal details about yourself throughout the course of your videos. I also have a friend who has traveled a road similar to the one you travelled in declaring who you are as a person and from my witnessing his trials and tribulations it has championed me to find out who I really am. This may seem like pandering but I will always appreciate strong people and you are not only a strong person but a supremely talented one. Once again showing how what and whom you love is only important as long as you are equally loved and enjoy being with those around you. Thank you for helping me soldier on with my customizing and showing as long as you love your own work that's what matter
Thanks so much, Robert. It makes me really happy that you have taken some inspiration from what I do and who I am. I can't really ask for anything more in life than that. Being who and I guess "what" I am is essential to everything I do. If I were someone or something else I wouldn't make the same customs or like the same things, so when I am showcasing my work it is only appropriate to showcase who I am at the same time. The action figure collecting community is strangely uber macho, perhaps because fans are desperate to not be seen as doll collecting children, so I think it's important to bring humour and who we truly are to the hobby. It is a community that attracts a lot of children inevitably so I want them to be able to see someone being honest about who they are and see that you can be respected by the community. The community has been very welcoming to me and I don't regret a single thing.
This is insanely good!!! This may be the best custom fig I've ever seen period. Extremely talented sir, looking forward to seeing your Dr. Strange finished and in all his glory!!
no words..one of the best strikes again..being a customizer i look up to u so much..u and Glenn..hey Glenn where ur new customs at bro..lol..love it Warrack..cant wait to see ur next custom..take care
amazing, I love going on TH-cam to see you've uploaded a custom, I'm always totally blown away by what you do, fantastic work as always, really hope to see more soon
Wow man, this is incredible. I actually only just discovered your previous Swarm last week, and hoped to one day have a go at him. So now after seeing this one (which looks even better on the Vision body), you''ve helped me even more. I'm a bit wary of damaging the figure too much whilst dremelling down the form, but I suppose it doesn't matter too much as long as articulation is intact. Thanks for the video man.
+Louis Lättman Thanks! It's very rare to see him in comics, but yeah, I love him too. He sometimes shows up away from Spider-Man but it's never that great a story unfortunately.
when it came to super power's, I always had a thing for that kind that could become elements, with Swarm I still like what he can do, it's different but good
It's great to see more videos from you; master level work as always! I keep wondering though, and I hope I'm not pushing my luck here, do you have any plans to continue the Warrack Vlog? I really enjoyed that feature, and hope to see it resurface. Looking forward to seeing more of your work in the future!
He looks better than a professional statue. This is phenomenal! The base, the cape strands, the skeleton inserts, and utilising caviar for bees? How did you come up with that?!
+Sockapus Gotcha. Acetone will melt plastic so just apply a little at a time. Put some on a Q-tip and wipe away the paint, then wipe away the acetone from the figure with a paper towel.
yeah ,the one you did for doom right? but i couldnt understand how to do with the hood thing could you help me , maybe if you have some tutorial or something like that
+murilo ricardo You put the cloth over the head (like you put a towel over your head to do a cheap Virgin Mary impersonation) and then fold it into a hood shape. Use fabric glue to hold the folds to keep the shape. There's no special technique. Just sculpt the material as best you can.
+Craig Warrack oh i thought it was necessary to do some cuts on it to hold the shape ,but thanks , is there any other social media that i could use to talk with you ? maybe show you my customs?
+murilo ricardo You will need to it in some way, but it's totally down to your personal preference of what you want the custom to look like. I'm on all the usual social media.
I can see you dremeled a hole through the torso of the figure and dremeled down a lot of his waist-abb area. Where you able to keep the ab-crunch articulation??
+Craig Warrack Amazing.. I m gonna give it a try to make this character as I cant see Hasbro giving us one anytime soon. Hope he turns out half as good as yours did. Thank you for the awesome tips and video-tutorial.
Craig Warrack oh okay thanks. did u like the metal studs link i sent you? they got all sizes on really kool stuff one can use for customs. real metal too.
My day job? Reports n stats n numbers crunching n shit in a university office. I'd love for no holds barred MacFarlane esque marvel 'staction' figures to be a thing. I could see this guy working in a line like that.
hello good sir! i love your videos and tutorials. Recently i acquired some milliput epoxy sculpt. and i was wondering if you could do a tutorial on making "burn scars" on figs. I'm trying to add that to my Corporal Dwayne Hicks from aliens. i hope you have time to reply good sir and thanks for these videos.
Thanks. I don't think I have any particular hints to give on that topic. Perhaps look at some make up tutorials on how that is achieved on the human face and then scale that down.
talc and superglue?? can I ask why not epoxy? and sorry what kind of caviar? I couldn't make it out... this figure looks amazing abd with the stand? so good!
Talc and superglue make a very, very hard structure that isn't brittle. Sculpt tends to break off of an armature when it's very thin. And it's nail caviar. Used in nail art I believe.
+Craig Warrack actually now you say it it makes sense, I have struggled with epoxy in the past on fiddly projects... haha no wonder I couldn't make it out. would never have guessed nail!
I lived for that Spider Force Swarm and your custom is how it looked in my imagination all those years ago
Aww Glenn 😭😭
+Geek Media I know 😢
Man. I loved him so much.
Oh my god 😭
This is one of the most ambitious customs I've seen...this is beautiful
I didn't realize how talented you are. Regrettably it took Glenn's passing for me to check out your channel. I hope you would continue where Glenn left off. Doing reviews, 30 days of Halloween.. etc. Glenn is my favorite TH-camr. I will dearly miss him.

Your work is out of this world. Got me to like a character I know nothing about. This is a masterpiece.
Wow. I cannot' believe this. Just. Wow. Your interpretation of the character is truly amazing. You're a talented man.
Thanks again! Glad you like him.
wow Craig wow..that is absolutely incredible man. Awesome awesome work. truly amazing.
My apologies for witnessing this amazing creation after 3 yrs of its making. This figure is outstanding.
no words..one of the best strikes again..being a customizer i look up to u so much..u and Glenn..hey Glenn where ur new customs at bro..lol..love it Warrack..cant wait to see ur next custom..take care
Wonderful work, Craig. Good to have you back 😁
By far the best custom I have EVER seen! Amazing job Craig!
good job I like your customs made action figures ! you never cease to amaze me by great work !
Out of all the customs figures i have seen yours is the best
If it had a hook for a hand, it could be Candy man's alter ego.
amazing, I love going on TH-cam to see you've uploaded a custom, I'm always totally blown away by what you do, fantastic work as always, really hope to see more soon
Amazing job once again Craig and thank you for your tutorials on how to do certain things they really helped me in customizing.
Wow man, this is incredible. I actually only just discovered your previous Swarm last week, and hoped to one day have a go at him. So now after seeing this one (which looks even better on the Vision body), you''ve helped me even more. I'm a bit wary of damaging the figure too much whilst dremelling down the form, but I suppose it doesn't matter too much as long as articulation is intact.
Thanks for the video man.
I keep rewatching this video, it's too awesome
ive also been caught looking at nail art i found some playing cards and other things that can be used for customs.
Wow man I'm always impressed buy your work but this stuff just gets better and better. Well done.
How far you have come, my good sir. This guy looks better then before! Nice work!
Swarm is one of my fav Spidey villains, even though he's never in the comics. Great custom!
+Louis Lättman Thanks! It's very rare to see him in comics, but yeah, I love him too. He sometimes shows up away from Spider-Man but it's never that great a story unfortunately.
Really awesome custom, Craig!
Such an amazing figure, Craig. Another home run!
when it came to super power's, I always had a thing for that kind that could become elements, with Swarm I still like what he can do, it's different but good
Wow! U never cease to amaze me!
Damn Craig...that is pure AWESOME!!!
Awesome! Some great tips there, thanks
looks really good you and glenn are the best
dud you're freaking incredible with the customs
Would you ever consider making one of these for someone
great custom love the detail
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!
rektangular whoah your here
Amazing work thank you for sharing this!
Amazing!! Awesome work!
Ah that's better I was going thru Warrack withdrawals. As always beautiful work Sir.
This is an amazing improvement! I also liked the older version you made back then.
bro that’s sick awesome job
This one is SO GOOOOOD.
Absolutely incredible custom of an absolutely incredibly goofy character.
amazing work congratulations on this figure. 🖒🖒
WOW. That is one good custom. You earned a subscribe.
Sick! Very nicely done.
these customs are so cool
Holy shit as if it wasn't badass enough you went and made a sweet base to go align with it?!?!
Great job, looks awesome.
another masterpiece sir just amazing
Thanks!
this looks like something toy biz would make. a great custom
WOW!!!!- YOUR WORK IN AMAZING! !!!!! SO BADASS!!
Yes!!! Awesome job bro!
Gorgeous man. A fellow Scot!
Wow ..great job !
Thanks!
Yes! Please do more customs!!
I will try!
+Craig Warrack This custom was amazing, I like my spider villains
+Matt Murdock Thanks. I love them too. They walk a fine line between kooky, spooky, scary and silly. They're always so colourful too!
Nailed it once again
It's great to see more videos from you; master level work as always! I keep wondering though, and I hope I'm not pushing my luck here, do you have any plans to continue the Warrack Vlog? I really enjoyed that feature, and hope to see it resurface. Looking forward to seeing more of your work in the future!
all i can say is WOW!, lol.... great work sir.
Love this! I cant wait to have a go at these capes. Did I hear right, nail caviar??
Thanks, and yes, you heard right.
+Craig Warrack for those times you have to make your nails look like a Liquorice All Sort!
+xlllred Eww! Those gross blue ones!
He looks better than a professional statue. This is phenomenal! The base, the cape strands, the skeleton inserts, and utilising caviar for bees? How did you come up with that?!
Thanks for sharing !!
It would be amazing if you make a massive custom of the cosmic entity Eternity.
This custom is fucking amazing, I love the odd and camp look he has. But I'm slightly confused how acetone works on plastic.
Thanks. What's confusing about the acetone thing?
+Craig Warrack just how it removes the paint and how if it warps the plastic in any way.
+Sockapus Gotcha. Acetone will melt plastic so just apply a little at a time. Put some on a Q-tip and wipe away the paint, then wipe away the acetone from the figure with a paper towel.
+Craig Warrack Alright, thank you.
That's really cool.
epic as always
can you make swap cats
Are you gonna do a swarm figure based on the spiderman: turn off the dark musical
I'm guessing that one dislike is someone who failed spectacularly in making a custom swarm figure.
That came out hot
craig , do you have any video showing how to do fabric hoods for customs ? if you do , could you tell me the link?
Did you check out my cape tutorial?
yeah ,the one you did for doom right? but i couldnt understand how to do with the hood thing could you help me , maybe if you have some tutorial or something like that
+murilo ricardo You put the cloth over the head (like you put a towel over your head to do a cheap Virgin Mary impersonation) and then fold it into a hood shape. Use fabric glue to hold the folds to keep the shape. There's no special technique. Just sculpt the material as best you can.

I can see you dremeled a hole through the torso of the figure and dremeled down a lot of his waist-abb area. Where you able to keep the ab-crunch articulation??
Of course!
+Craig Warrack Amazing.. I m gonna give it a try to make this character as I cant see Hasbro giving us one anytime soon. Hope he turns out half as good as yours did. Thank you for the awesome tips and video-tutorial.
so great
your insane !
impossible xD its incredible, great job
Amazing
looks awesome! what is nail caviar? what are the clear little balls u covered the figure with??
I covered the figure with clear little balls called nail caviar. Google it.
Craig Warrack oh okay thanks. did u like the metal studs link i sent you? they got all sizes on really kool stuff one can use for customs. real metal too.
What is your day job again? I wish I could buy this somewhere. Great job, Craig!
My day job? Reports n stats n numbers crunching n shit in a university office. I'd love for no holds barred MacFarlane esque marvel 'staction' figures to be a thing. I could see this guy working in a line like that.
+Craig Warrack Indeed!
dont no anything about that character and did not even no that he was a character but that figure is awsome
Holy crap!
LOL he's Candyman with extra steps
how much for a custom Spiral figure?
+QGLANCE Grant I don’t do commissions or sell my work.
Such a gorgeous custom. Your so skilled !! :D Can't wait to see more customs in the future, are there any in progress right now ?
There certainly are. A 6 armed femme fatale from the Mojoverse is on her way.
Which head was used for the figure?
Ghost Rider and Grim Reaper

NOT THE BEES!!!!
Show !
What material did you use for the cape. Cotton, poly. Just wondering. I like how thin the material looks
I don’t know, sorry. I just go to the fabric section at the hobby store and feel the fabrics for one I like
Craig Warrack ok thanks. Is the material stretchy that’s really all I need to know
No
even better!
Heh, I'm glad you found my second version of the guy!
Thanks for getting back to me most people dont have the time for it. Do you have instagram?
+Aldo Alisa sure do. IG: craigwarrack
