Custom Simpsons Bust! CHANGING CAPE, Need your imput

Morning all. Well, I got tired of looking at my extra Bart Simpson bust I had so I decided to make a custom Bartman from it. Some paint and a cape later I think it turned out pretty cool. Still have a few minor touch-ups and will probably change the name at the bottom to Bartman.

Decided to change the cape, see page 2 for pics and suggest a length...

Hey man! We need to hang out sometime soon. Yeha, I haven't seen you on the Spawn boards for awhile. I mostly hang out in the Statue and Bust thread now over there and that's about it.

I'm not really sure... it was just in my custom figure fodder pile... I was going to try and alter it to make it smaller or use another one but I really like the way this one turned out. I like the way it curves to the side and makes it look all 'dramatic'. I like the way it looks.

Cape is from the Spawn Series 3 Redeemer figure.

 

[punkg42]

I believe you are correct! I didn't think it was from that fig but I took a closer look and it is! Which I should have known cause I have every single Spawn figure.

Great looking Bartman, the overly dramatic cape is pretty fun looking with him. Almost like a movie version.

Yeah, I'm gonna unload my extras soon I think. Shoot me a list if you get rid of stuff. Might see something that interests me.

But most of them are figures... well...there are a lot of statues now.

What forum do you post them in here?

 

[punkg42]

Ok, I've had a few comments and critiques about the cape being big... and I kinda agree... so, I decided to use this one which fits a bit more for the look of the bust bust. Now, I just need to figure out where to cut it down to size at. I'm thinking about just below the first lip of the base... your thougts?

I will of course be painting the cape, as well as changing the neck part to resemble a tied cape look.
