Post subject:  New League customs and Joes

I've had most of these guys finished for a while but still had some minor tweaks that I wanted to finish. Thanks to having the flu the past week, I was able to utilize some of my house-bound time. With the League customs I will be continually reworking all the universes into one cohesive unit. With that being said, some of the characters will be very similar to their comic/movie looks. While others will be my favorite elements from different costumes worked into one.

Robin: I wanted to give Robin an updated costume similar to the pics I've seen of the new Bat costume from Batman Inc. I have totally worked out his story in my universe as of yet, but I've pretty much decided that it will be Tim Drake under the mask.

The Flash: his look is pretty much the same. I wanted a different look for his mask to cover a bit more of his face.
Image

Spiderman: I've always been a big fan of the symbiote costume Spidey, but I wanted to incorporate elements from the Scarlett Spider and the Ben Reily costume. He has interchangable hands give a more web-shooting look, and the long web fits under his gauntlet to look like it's shooting out.

Mr. Freeze is the first member of the Legion that I've made. He was a product of parts justs falling together.

As for the Joes, I've wanted for a while to make a VvV Snake-Eyes (the last version before DTC started).

Baron Ironblood was one that I've wanted to make for a while, but I couldn't find the right parts so I decided to modernize him.

Great work all the way around! Excellent detailing on both Flash and Robin. I think Robin is my favorite!

I like them all but I have to admit that the Barron iron Blood is my fav.

Great work. I have a very similar SE on my shelf that I did at the beginning of the 25th line.

Very nice all around.

The Flash mask reminds me of the one from the TV series for some reason. Not that that's a bad thing. I really like the Baron update . . . I have a hard time taking him seiously with a bucket on his head. The Wraith head works great.

Thanks for the comments. I've got three more League members in the works I hope to have finished next week.

That is a really sweet looking Robin figure... Looks like he'll be kickin' some serious butt! Also like Flash, who I have always found to be an under-appreciated super... and I loved the Flash TV series! Great stuff here, man, great stuff!

Robin is perfect, I take it he's a WO cyclops base body. Flash is sweet too and I like the head choice.Snake eyes looks good too just a little 'dated' as the parts available are so much more detailed and better, glad to see customs from you and nore to come that's a good thing

I love the Baron Ironblood. Really cool ideas there.

These are all great. Very high quality work all around. But that Mister Freeze is filling me with custom envy.

They all look great, but i'm really diggin' how robin turned out. He looks awesome. A great mix of past and present looks rolled into one.

Thanks again for the comments. That is indeed the XOW Cyclops body on Robin. This project has been fun so far because previously I've restricted myself to being as comicly accurate as possible, and now I make what works for me.
