Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

I love watching your League build. I thought of using the DC Direct Green Lantern suit on my custom also, but I'm VERY new at sewing. You did a beautiful job. Sinestro looks much better, much darker.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Thanks man!

SLight mod on GL, removed the tigh part on the legs, much more balanced now.

Great work on the Jonah Hex sculpt! I didn't realize such a good sculpt hit under that DCD crap paint job. It looks like a real guy now.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Thanks Sam, such a shame because all the dcd head are pretty awesome but ruined by some of the worst paintjobs.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

These all look great my only doubt is on the size of Hals head - does it look in scale in person?

Love that green arrow

Early early pics of Poison Ivy.

Heavily reworked DC direct outfit on a triad alpha body.
Still a lot to do but hsaping up nicely!

Totally agree. I have most of the figures you've customized and the heads (I think Andy B. sculpted most of them) and most of the costumes are great, but the bodies and paint apps suck. I glad to see you could do some good things with them.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Made some progress on my Green Lantern.

Painted the armour a nice metallic lime green.

THis idea has grown on me.
Like in Kingdom Come his armour could be used instead of the lantern to recharge his ring.

I can't wait to get my Kato body suit to try it on.

Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

That is an awesome concept, Seb! :clap Can't wait for more updates!
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Threw a body suit quickly on GL to see how he looks.

Here's the first pics of my WIP FLASH.
He's inspired by the DCU online Flash.

A kinda armoured Flash.
I went with a dark metallic Red, battle suit is jill valentine, body armour is the sideshow clone trooper modified, flynn boots and thor gauntlets, custom made belt.

My pics sucks though. lol

Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Looking great! I love the idea for the belt, great custom. I've been trying to figure out what to do for the belt and gauntlets, plus the logo. I like the lightening look, and didn't want to just paint a gold stripe on the gauntlets. Yours looks so good, I love the worn look.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Oh, GL is looking great too! Can't wait to see the finished product.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and others)

Thanks my man!
I definitely like the armoured look for both, kind of a modern take on them.

I know what you you want to say about the bolt painted, it won't look right for that version.
 
Re: Elvis1976 - DC custom thread (Batman and JLA)

Can't wait to see Flash and GL done.
