Raving Toy Maniac & CustomCon 10 Present

 

My name is Jason DeMarte and I have been collecting comics for 20 years.  The Avengers is one of my favorite books and cast of heroes. I have been dabbling in customizing since 1996, although this is my first submission to a Custom Con (thanks to finally getting a digital camera). I have been working on a Beast figure to go with this line, but did not complete it in time. I hope I can get it ready for the next Custom Con.  If you have any questions or comments, my email is: [email protected].  Thanks for looking. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them.
