Very Nice!!! With the sculpting, does that stick to the body with out glue? Thinking I'm going to have to do this to my supes.

I used an epoxy putty designed for wood repair made by JB Weld. It sticks great to the plastic as well as the rubber torso. Dip your finger in a little water and it smooths out nicely before it sets. Sands easy too.

Waiting for apoxi to dry for head but here he is finished. he will look better posed
 
He looks better in person. And looks fine for me since I gotta look at him. I don't have him flexed he is big all over
 
As much as I'm liking the muscular customs everyone is doing (great job to all, by the way), I'm starting to understand why SS took the route they did. The Supes on original bod has an elegance to him. I think I still prefer the more bulky ones though...

I think the stock body is fine, except the big head looks even bigger on that body and Batman looks a lot bigger next to him, imo.
 
He looks great there, crow. :rock

There's little wrong with him right out of the box. I could've just as easily enjoyed mine unmodded. I do however really like a little more bulk to him.
 
Here's my finished nekkid Supes...

Groovy, I think you're gonna be struggling to get the suit over the T20 with that much muscle.

Also for those doing this, contrary to popular belief, snaps do a great job of keeping the suit closed at the back. I've got two on it now but will probably add another one or two later on.

Coco,

Do you mind posting a picture of the back of the figure with the snaps?
 
Nice job coco on bulking him up a tad. I think you found the perfect medium in the size. Just a touch and not too much. That is Superman right there 100% :rock

Thank you! That's exactly what I was trying to do. Add some bulk but not so much that it's distracting. EVILFACE hit that "just right size" too even though areas of his were a bit more muscular than mine.

My apologies to those that had asked me earlier for this too. I'm not a seamstress in any way so it's really ugly but very functional. I figured it's always hidden behind the cape so who cares. All I wanted was to be able to easily remove the suit if need be and it was easier to do than try and sew it all back up.

The plan is to add a couple more down below but really it works fine as is.

And one more of him just standing there.

For anyone that is planning to remove the outfit, you don't have to unstitch it all the way up. Only unstitch the middle of the back, the part that looks like bad stichtching. The material stretches enough to go over the neck to remove it. Just be careful, don't over stretch it or force it, the seams will snap. It happened to me on my 4th suit.

Coco that's alot of stress in those area's of snaps eventually the fabric will tear. I speak from personal experience.
 
No offense to sideshow but these stands are garbage. it took several attempts to get this to stay in a take off position.
