So I couldn’t wait to get my hands in one of these guys. I’m not even a big Jim Lee Fan but I HAD to try my hand at overhauling this figure. I work in fabric capes so this was a no brained to pop a...[See More]

It’s my 300th Figure!!! I’ve been at this hobby for about 20 years. Still love it. Simple mission: I Want That! As my 300th figure, I had to take it back to the first action figure that ever...[See More]

I’ve had this one completed for a while. Back in the beginning of the pandemic I got into kicking out cloth costumes and attempting to Mezco-ize my custom hobby. Costume, boots, belt, wired cape...[See More]

An improvment of methods from all preceeding versions. This figure takes scale measurements and additional considerations to bring my personal vision just THIS much closer to realizing my original...[See More]

I’ve been waiting to see what my costumes will do on a VToys 1/12 body and I’ve got to say I’m pleased. Scratch built costume from bodysuit to wired cape. Boots are Mezco copies from...[See More]

So I picked up the Rebirth Bizarro, and I had already been tinkering with Infected Supermen, but now was the obvious task of making a classic Bizarro, simply because opportunity arose. At its core...[See More]

Been snowed in all week... my office is too damn cold to work in right now so I unfurled my tool set on the coffee table today to mess with this big guy. Built on a McFarlane AllMight, the costume...[See More]

So by luck I ran across a SR 13” Superman with no costume. Just boots, fists and stand. That was perfect because I’m up to my teets in fabric and I’ve wanted to do this figure for a minute. Luckily...[See More]

Continuing to work in soft goods I upsized my pattern to fit larger figures. This time we went with All-Might from Hero Academia. These figures were getting clearanced in droves over the past year...[See More]

I’ve been wanting to do this one for a minute. Different challenges called for different approaches. This version of Superman calls for these Roman boot laces/braces instead of the pleather wrapped...[See More]

Really, my version numbers are starting to get a little muddled. I've made no less than 15 of these in series and as I continue to improve things on newer ones I go back over older ones to correct...[See More]

Same Recipe as my previous standard Supes with an altered headsculpt. I kinda pushed the features around a bit as the resin cured. Added a little extra volume to the spit curl. Suit has darkened...[See More]

Continued improvements. One piece boots, padded torso... it just keps going... and going... and going......[See More]

Always moving, always improving. Slight modifications to the preceeding versions. Figure still features all the elements from versions 0.5 - 5.0 with additional steps of adding padding to the upper...[See More]

Continuing to work with the Shazam! bodies we've moved to tweaking differnt aspects of how the costume fits. The top hem has been sealed at the neck, wired cape inserted into the body, trunks...[See More]

Continuing with One:12 Super-suited figures this time I turned to another favorite classic look. Cast and painted Curt Swan DC Showcase Superman head on a DC Multiverse body with a scratch built...[See More]

This time we moved to the DC Multiverse Shazam body and WOW... Was this figure made for this little project or what? The tall slender/muscular build fills this suit PERFECTLY!!!! Added articulation a...[See More]

Continued Improvements to this endeavor. We've experimented with a few different body types but the DC Multiverse seems to take the lead everytime. Costume scratch built using "No Sew" Method, Cast...[See More]

Wanting to continue with the One:12 direction, I've taken the same formula of fabrication and gone in the direction of my favorite era of Comic Book Superman. Curt Swan was the artist of MY Superman...[See More]

Still at it. This is the same suit pattern as the versions .5 and 1.0. This time we got to complete it with a cast belt and hydroshrink HT Reeve head. This figure used Shazam fists which pop right...[See More]

Still at it trying to get things how I want them. Definitely a pleasing result. Scratch made costume right down to the “S” emblems on chest and cape. Head is a stand in for what will be a...[See More]

Continuing with my cloth costumes I wanted to work on a larger figure to get a more bulky look. I'm quickly realizing that scale can be deceiving with cloth. the materials really add a scale inch...[See More]

In continuation of my cloth costume experiment I have taken the next step forward. These costumes are built ONTO the figure so its not a removable costume once its said and done. Costume is...[See More]

I've been waiting too long to do this one but I guess the quarantine's got to be good for something. So get ready FR Friends.... Daddy's dusitng off the workbench. Base figure is a BVS Lex with a...[See More]

This is my second complete attempt at the 1:12 Scale Fabric Costume. Costume is "welded" as opposed to sewing using a stretchy spandex material for the costume as well as the boots which are a...[See More]

So... under quarantine, finding excuses to explore things I’ve wanted to experiment with I tried my hand at “No Sew” costume making. So many awesome kits out there to make your own characters and SO...[See More]

I scraped off the KC emblem with an exacto and dropped a Fleischer style S on and went to work shortening the cape. Initially I was going to do a “U” shaped cape but figured I’d work with the folds...[See More]

Basically popped off the black belt and replaced with a DCU dupes belt flipped upside down to elongate the lower torso. There’s barely anything there. Great figure though. Definitely doing a...[See More]

Just my same old tricks with a new fabric cape punched into the body. cape features wired lengths and and iron on cape "S"....[See More]

I took the standard issue figure and bored holes in the clavicle and tucked the cape into those holes. With the excess folded under (super powers style) and superglued on contact to shoulder blades...[See More]
