So, I've been picking p some of the 3 3/4 in DCU figures. I just got a pretty sweet deal on a Martian Manhunter. The only problem is he's missing his cape. I don't do much customizing, so I was wondering if any of you guys had any suggestions of what I could do for a decent cape. Also, if anyone has a cape they think would work and are willing to part with it at a good price I might be interested in that too.

Well it you'd probably have to trim it down a bit, but the cape from the MU Sentry figure might work well. That's all I can think of off the top of my head for a ready-made cape, but repainting a different cape the right color would work too.

I've been planning on adding capes for a while, but I've just been trying to decide which capes to add.

Vision's in solid yellow would be great. Sentry's in either red or black would be awesome as well.

Interesting suggestions. Sentry's cape is definitely one I've been looking at, and though I hadn't planned on Vision's I might. Any more suggestions?

Doom's could be kind of cool for medieval concepts. Moon Knight's is similar to Sentry's but has the benefit of allowing the figure to almost stand on its own.

Does anyone know of a bowler hat that i could use for a custom MU Dum Dum Dugan?

 

 

been wondering that myself for a while. Actually I think it would be better if someone shrank the ML head and sold the whole head instead of just the hat.

For my Dugan I used the Wild Weezel/ Wild Bill 2 pack w/ the blue suit, and I reworked the cowboy hat to look like a bowler hat. Not perfect, but it isn't too bad for now.

I've thought about the MLSHSD Thor cape.

Why not use Dum Dum head from Onyx? Looks great!

Brian doesn't have it in his store anymore. He might still have the mold though. So if you contact him he might be able to make you one.

Nice Job Steve, and great part selection! You made some of my favorite avengers. Did you use the DCIH Black Canary lower legs for Mockingbird?

 

Thanks, not the lower legs, just DHIC Black Canary boots dremelled to fit Spider Woman's legs, they actually fit on like boots, they are not even glued they stay on perfectly and move left and right.

This probably a stupid question, but what's the best way to attach a head to new body? I want to swap heads, but leave it able to be put back onto it's original body if need be.

 

 

i saw someone post once that if the hole is too big you put some hot glue in the head then stick it on.

I have updated some of my older customs.

 

Forge - Added some pouches to his belt and gave him 25th Spirit boots.

Nick Fury - Finally got a Shield Agent body, so just a head swap.
