Lone Wolf & Cub Figures

[uriah]

Megahouse/Darkhorse produced a great 12" set of these characters but I've never seen it cheaper than $300. I thought making my own figs would diminish my lust for that set but instead it just reminds me how bad I want them every time I look at them. The figs I made are done in the "animated" style that TV shows like Batman and JLU made popular. Here are some pics...

Wow,
That's some awesome design and very cool fig!
The big, angular, stoic and noble of samurai warrior always work well in such stylized fashion (Samurai jack is a good example, as Yusagi Yosimbo).
Did you start from scratch or from existing figure? In any case the result have much personality!
