Superboy (Kon-El/Conner Kent)

It took me a while to finally decide on which head to use, but I finally decided on the rollbar/saw viper head to portray Superboy as he appeared toward the end prior to his death. The S shield was done using testors inkjet decals. The camera flash adds a little shine to it and makes the black look different, but in natural like it matches pretty well. I might have to hit it with a coat of dull-cote one more time though.

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Parts List:
Head: Rollbar/Saw Viper
Torso: Kronin Torso (Modded)
Upper Arms: Destro v10
Lower Arms: Flint v8
Waist & Legs: Destro v10

Very nice. Good choice for the head. The 'S' is well done, too.

This was always my favorite Superboy outfit.

Great job! Perfect size for the character. The dry-brushing in his jeans is perfect. Keep 'em coming!

I like the figure design a lot. The only thing I'm not a big fan of is the head. I think a Salvo head would look better because it is bigger, has a more serious facial expression, and has a squared off jaw to match Superman's.

Very nice job - I love the paintjob and the part choices.

I'm not feeling the head either- I used a Chap Mei space guy for mine and I think it looks a lot like Conner (tussled hair and all):

Again, the paint apps just flat-out rock - very cool!
