Harris, Charlton Villa

Today seems as good a day as any for a snazzy 1990s goalkeeper kit repaint!!

This is Harris, of park team Charlton Villa! At some point in the early-to-mid 90s, this kit, as worn by Leeds United in 92-93, was their choice.

I loved painting this! Click on it to enlarge- you know you want to!

Anyway, being a park team, funnily enough, Vivid Imaginations did not manufacture a figure of Harris in his heyday. We chose this lookalike figure, then we discussed details such as the kit, shirt number, hair colour etc. We even adjusted the skin tone on this one.

If you want a figure of a friend or family member, use the contact box below, or message me on Twitter or through my Facebook page. Or even Instagram! If you're quick, I could even get it to you in time for Christmas!

Rebrand, links... and a Vivid imaginations figure to hold your interest!

Hi all! I hope you like the new layout! I thought it was about time I made this blog layout look a bit more similar to my Facebook page! Brand-building, an' all that!

Speaking of which... I've just started an Instagram; if you're on there, I'd love a follow! Click here to find me!

The observant among you will have also noticed a slight change to the header: I'm now going under the moniker of "Marc's Corinthians + More"!

The reason for the 'more'? I realised, while I still do a lot of Corinthians, I've also done a really wide variety of figures now... including:

Soccerstarz, Tonkas, Vivid Imaginations, Fanaticos, Subbuteo XLs, Keymen, SoccerSerie figures and more!!

So... I thought I'd put one of the 'more' figures in this post!

This is a vivid imaginations figure of a Charlton Villa stalwart, in the kit from their Inter Milan away kit phase!

He picked a suitable lookalike figure, as well as the kit, name, number and caption for the oval on the base.

Charlton Villa, Part 4 (Newcastle kits)

Here's the latest installment of the Charlton Villa set of figures I did for a returning customer.

Charlton Villa were his Park team, meaning they wore  few different kits over the years! The players are all 'lookalike' figures of his teammates!

Charlton Villa, Part 3

Here are the next two Charlton Villa figures!

Back to the Lazio kit this time!

In case you missed the backstory on these and were wondering who Carlyle and Anderson are, a customer has been getting Vivid Imaginations Figures done of all his old teammates from his Sunday League team!

They've had a few kits over the years, including the above Lazio one, a Newcastle one, a Sheff Weds one and (to be posted soon!) an Inter away kit!

All the figures have been customised with the right hair colour, customers choice of kit, and the right name and shirt number.

Contact me if you'd like something similar!

Charlton Villa, Part 2!

Here are the next few Charlton Villa repaints, in one customer's one man mission to seemingly get a figure of all of his team mates over the years!

As you can see, Charlton Villa had swapped to a pretty iconic Newcastle kit by this stage!

Robbie Fowler, or should I say 'Hawtree', arrived with me with that injury! The customer was happy to repair him himself upon return.

As you can see a fair bit of customisation had to go on with these guys, including stubble, changing hair colour... and for the top one, an all over skin colour change!! Believe it or not, that figure used to be Ian Wright!

Charlton Villa, Vivid Imaginations figures part 1!

I'm on a roll with the Vivid Imaginations figures!

One of my regulars asked me to do a Sheringham in a Spurs kit for him, and someone else saw it and asked me about them.

I said I was happy to use them as 'lookalikes' and the rest is history!

I must have painted half the guys he's played Sunday League with!!

Here are the first 2:

While the heading of this post is Charlton Villa, you may recognise the kit as one worn by Lazio in the 1990s!
