Gas: Love your viking! He looks pretty fierce to me!
Did you enjoy the film, How to Train Your Dragon? He looks as if he would fit in well with that film's characters! Cheers!

That viking has nothing to do with yours... Just the name - and is actually all wrong for the character, that you managed to capture BRILLIANTLY!

I think it was unintentional, the guy probably doesnt know the actual character and probably just intended to name him the short version of Viking.

Intentional or not, his is nowhere near as good as yours!

i have no doubt anout the fact it's intentional , i write him 3 time to tell him to stop selling my ideas ... (yes : not the same bear for a druid for example ... ) alway the same answer : "it's not the same " 3 month ago , i do a johnny halliday for ebay (french famous singer) , three days ago there was 3 on ebay ... sure not the same figures ... in theses days , ideas , music , films are free , sure i'm a idealist but it's difficult to see the respect of humain beeing nowadays . 3 years ago people who play in ebay wasn't like that , i use to send message to congratulate people who do nice customs . Now i treat people like they treat me (on ebay) but it's not funny , maybe it would be better to stop ebay for me but i have 4500 playmobils witch is too much considering my portfolio . I won't speak about people who try to take the paternity of customs ideas or don't speak about where come their idea because i can write a book on that subject ...     

Understand please i take pleasure to show and look in here but sometime i'm afraid to feed oportunist , that's why i don't show my 300 (near) celebrity customs , it's sad but i have no choice if i want to make few euro on my ideas and buy again playmobils to do other ...   

you know ; i perfectly know lot of colletors doesn't like sellers (especially in france maybe) i have no shame to sell ideas to buy my playmo and the playmo of my daughter ! , the same people who spit on seller on some forums contact me to get rares pieces or to do special things for them .. We all know a large part of collectors by kg to get rare pieces and sell the rest the best way as they can .

Well , i say what i have in my heart , forget it ... 

many thanks to be here , it's important for me to have feedback when i post picture , it's the difference between a blog and a forum ...

There is one suggestion I would make to improve Vic ... do you have any long braided female playmo hair? it would fit without squishing out as much over the split beard.
