From the workshop of Tankster:
“The Leviathan is the answer to the Decimator problem and a sword against Tombstone and his robot armies. It is a manned Mech, with superb firepower, and is very agile despite its size of well over 30 ft tall.”
From the workshop of Tankster:
“D.C. Universe Arkham Origins Deathstroke & Deathstroke Ver. 2
Built out of everything I could find:
Joe/Iron Man/ Custom modded Headcast and various cut up straps and pouches from diff. web-gears.
Chest armor was sculpted as were upper Leg Guards”
From Tales of Desolation, Tankster brings us Saito Masamune, the Neo-Samurai.
“Well before the Vermillions and Azurains became two distinct Races the Humanoids of Desolation were a wide variety of races stemming from the human condition and there origins on Earth.
Saito Masamune (a.k.a. Zefran Jaxx) a Vermillion had heard of old tales of early Earth from recovered data streams in Ruins of Desolation, the tales of Feudal Japan and of the Samurai.
Learning Techniques from the archives and building his suit to mimic parts of the ancient Samurai mixed with common place Desolation garb Saito becomes the Neo-Samurai of Desolation.
Armed with a Trans-muter, he is able to channel plasma energy into solid objects to use as weapons or tools and a mini high powered Gatling Revolver, sword, and wrist blade.”
From the workshop of NEUSPEAQ:
“ENDLESS hails from a race known for their extremely long lifespans (think elves/vampyrs.) Exiled from his planet, (alongside his two brothers for the heinous crimes they committed,) their space craft ejected their cryo-chambers/life pods before crash landing on the planet which would later be named Desolation; 200 years before the humans turned Azurians/Vermillions ever colonized it. It was there he slept, as the Azurians and Vermillions increased in numbers and aggression towards each other. It wasn’t until an all out civil war erupted between the two races that he awoke, angered that he knew not where he was, (and most importantly,) that he knew not where his brethren were…
Endless possesses lightning fast reflexes, and is highly agile; he is quick witted and slow to anger; possessing a seemingly limitless patience. However his patience Does have a limit, and those who’ve exhausted it… they don’t fare well.
Embedded in the chest armor which adorns him, are over a hundred-thousand microscopic hologram projectors which allow him to appear Azurian while around them, and Vermillion when need be. He takes great pleasure in turning these projectors off when facing the unfortunate recipient of his slowly cultivated wrath before ending his antagonist’s life. He now wanders the wilds, hoping to reunite with his kin.”

From the workshop of Tankster:
Dark Troopers are elite Vermillion Troopers that watch over the Cliffs of Desolation guarding against any robotic Intruders or unwanted Azurains.
They are hand picked and trained to be solitaire in there demeanor, much like a Monk, but able to inflict deadly force when needed.
From Tankster’s Desolation Stronx “Crazy World” concept, resident mad scientist Mikey77 has created The Huntress. Mikey has made Mayhem Customs proud with his twisted design, as both figure and vehicle have been crafted and painted with a skillset that just cannot be from our little blue planet. The man is a danger with tools of creation, and we are proud to disply that genius here!
