most customizors (myself included) won't want to sell their customs, so you're better off making your own. There's a good one at http://www.pillio.../main.htm with a decent recipe, but if you are new to customs I wouldn't jump straight into that one

I made one in 2003...



Sorry about the photo quality; I'll probably take a better one someday. It's not as bumpy as it looks. That was actually the first custom job that I did all myself, and it took a lot of reworking after I first thought I was done (Back then, I only had some clay, files, and razors to work with).

Etrigan made some pretty good points; however, not everyone is exceptionally crafty and can make a decent figure (Heck, I've still got plenty of experience ahead me). A while back, I actually started sculpting the face of another spare Undercover Bruce Wayne in case I could sell it, but it's just started.

Some people have a problem with the legal terms of selling custom figures, but the way I see it, it's not illegal unless you're mass producing an item for sale. Technically, we're simply throwing some Sculpey and paint on a figure that we already bought and are reselling it. No harm in that.

Just out of curiousity, what would you be willing to shell out for a good Bruce Wayne, callingcard? And are there any other figures you'd like to buy? I'm working on multiple projects right now and getting the bug for it again.
