Use this to set up  a custom field :

customObject.nameField = new MetadataService.CustomField();
customObject.nameField.type_x = 'Text';
customObject.nameField.label = 'Test Record';

Add this method to resolve createService() error :

public static MetadataService.MetadataPort createService(){             
MetadataService.MetadataPort service = new MetadataService.MetadataPort(); service.SessionHeader = new MetadataService.SessionHeader_element();            
service.SessionHeader.sessionId = UserInfo.getSessionId();             
return service;         
}


If this answers your query please mark this question as a solved so that it can be filtered out from unsolved questions.
