The Mayhem Customs Dio builder extrodonaire has done it again. This time an awesome 6″ scale figure building. Check out the shear awesomeness of the details and look to this beat-up brick building by serpiente blanca.

As I mentioned before, recently, the senior staff members of OG13 found out that a couple of fellow members of OG13 were recovering from some life-altering events and we wanted to come up with a way to bring the whole community together to share support for these members (and the community) in general.
To accommodate this, we did:
– Customs Auctions
– Two Charity Raffles
– The official OG13 Custom Trooper (MoC)
And now, for the big reveal. We are not going to go into the details of what happened in these OGers life, as it is up to them to decide what they want shared on an Internet forum! They both absolutely deserved the assistance, and through the help of SO MANY of our amazing users, today, we split $1500.00 in half and sent $750 each to Serpiente Blanca and Dawbanger.
Thank you to ALL of you for making this happen. The outpouring of support was just incredible. I am really, really proud of all of you!
Full disclosure: We have ANOTHER $500.00, as we raised just over $2000.00 overall, but we are using that $500.00 for shipping everyone’s figures to them. Whatever remains will go to two charities, unless we put it towards a 2nd run of the exclusive figures.
This is a really big list of the contributors, which includes everyone that donated their time, their money, their customs, their product, their efforts, etc… It is not a list of those who bought the figures, but those who gave up something for nothing (in many cases a LOT of something) in order to make this charity event possible. If I missed your name on the list, PLEASE let me know and I will add you.
All of us at OG13.com would like to wish everyone a happy and safe 4th of July

From the workshop of serpiente blanca:
This is the second diorama that I made for a brOGer. He sent me the sketches (to base the diorama on), so I tried to stick to the main idea. I hope you like it!
As many have commented on, our good friend from Mexico (and incredible dio-maker), serpiente blanca, has been missing in action for quite a while. When this usually happens, we tell each other, I hope that nothing happened, and then we carry on until our buddy returns to tell us he was busy at work, or lost his Internet connection, or something else of non-consequential nature.
Sadly, this is one of those times where something did happen. While walking across the road, serpiente blanca was struck by a car that ran a red light. The crash put him into a coma for some time, but ultimately blessed him with the gift of SURVIVAL. We know that our brothers are strong, and he is one of the strongest.
Post-coma, he is still facing adversity, as the accident left him confined to a wheelchair (not-permanently). If you would be so kind, please take a moment to share a well-wish for him, say a prayer for him (if you are of the faith), and keep him in your mind. Life is terribly cruel. Let’s remind our brother that we are here for him.
From the incredible workshop of serpiente blanca, comes one of the coolest dioramas that I may have ever seen. This behemoth of a temple appears to be scale ready for 1:18th and 12″ Joes. This is an amazing work. I cannot imagine the hours of passion and pride put into this piece. We are proud to display it here for you…
