his head seems a bit small but otherwise it's a great job.

Another DC! No there will be no Hula Hula or Baby Plas!

Holy crap - I can't believe it hasn't struck me to use the Miz (or whatever his name is ) for a Plastic Man. Until now, that is.... :shifty:


Any plans for stretchy limbs? I had some decent luck with my Mr. Fantastic's arms, but that was about it.

Friggin' sweet :D

Two critiques: he's a little bulky in the upper body for Hal, which is probably why the head looks small - smaller arms might fix that; and the logo on his chest is a bit too big.

HOWEVER, the paint job is frickin' awesome - what shade of green is that? And even though the logo is big, it looks perfect from a color-scheme point of view. Love the way the center "glows" like that. Did you design that yourself, or did you find it online somewhere?

I was happy with my Hal custom, but after finishing my Flash the other day and seeing how yours looks with the Ace head, I'm gonna have to go back to the drawring board.

Very cool.

Chief is right, that green is spot on. I agree too that the body might be bulky for Hal Jordan. I would either change the body or get a bigger head. What's making the emblem "glow?"

Thanks!! I do agree it is a little bulkier than I would have liked, but I'll probably stick with it for now. The emblem I found online (took awhile because I was looking for one that had a glow effect) and if you want it pm me and I'll send it to you. I could have shrunk it a tad more, but I like the version that some of the artists do where it is larger than normal. It is printed on glossy photo paper which helps push the glow a little better. The green is American Festive Green.

from the waist up that is great.

the legs look like flesh colored dive pants, they have the bottom cuffs and the weird ridges at the upper hips. change those out or sand them down and he's a sure winner, great job on the chest details.

Great Job!!!!!!I have to agree about the legs though. The upper body is so perfect its a little distracting that the legs aren't bare. The upper legs are even good its just those bottom legs. Even if you gave him shoes I think would help it look better. Everything else is perfect. absolutely perfect. Great parts choices and the laces are great. Excellent work.

Great work IW! Gotta agree with Daniel b and Robulus while you nailed the upper torso the lower half could use some work. I would suggest the Inca Warrior from the Indy line with a couple mods using putty you could have a real winner. Also where did the glasses come from?

I would suggest using a nail file or fine grit sand paper to remove the mold lines. Also shrink the logo a bit. Other than those two mods looks great love the color choice and the paint apps.

The Firefly goggles.

Missed these earlier. Both are great with minor nits to pick on the size of GL's chest emblem and the crease in Plasty's legs.

Also, please remember that multiple customs posted in the same day should go in the same thread. Thanks.
