It's Great to See Customizers Coming to the Forefront

[Reginald Rutledge]

I have written so much over the years about the evolution of the game that you could probably create a book from it. Most of it is "junk", few things are true, and a little of it is real. But when I talk about the evolution of the game in regards to customizing, it does my heart good!

It's great to see guys who bought the DVD now creating poses that make your jaw drop! There are so many guys creating these awesome poses that had no knowledge of how to do it at first.

Heck, I stumbled on this some years ago but found that because FF.COM players were not as hard as traditional players, you could do so much with them. I remember being HEAVILY criticized because my players went against the conventional thinking of traditional players. But like any good engineer worth his wait in gold, I found alternative methods!

I combined my knowledge of physics, metallurgy, chemistry, and structural analysis with football to think beyond the box. I remember a many days sitting up in engineering class thinking of ways of enhancing electric (as we use to call it) football.

I remember the first time I studied metallurgical engineering back at the University of Tennessee. I remembered the prof talking about shaping metal into how you wanted it to be. Those same principles are used to create more than 1000 custom poses that I now have. Simply by heating up metal and then bending it or shaping it into what you want and then cooling it with extreme temperature change gives you a newly formed player.

This is shown in my customizing DVD. Some people have taken advantage of acquiring that DVD. I have seen their works and you can tell they are "Students of Customizing". Now, some of them show me creations that I learn from. Their work is fabulous! Off the Hook! Off the Chain! Outstanding!

Many of these guys are now understanding the science behind their work, the functionality, and their performance! I am geeked up that these guys have learned valuable techniques and have taken it to a whole new level. It enhances the game and it gives coaches another aspect of the game to enjoy.

This customizing is like a drug! Once you do it and you know it looks top notch. You want to do more. Then you learn how those players can help you and before you know it, you've done teams using custom figures.

So thanks customizers who learned from my DVD and those who did their own thing. You are really starting to get the most out of your miniature football experience.

If you have not bought our DVD 1, it is worth having because it shows you about 70 different poses and 20 poses to create.
