My Second Custom-- Plastic Man!

[GreenLantern9999]

Hi again everyone, Thanks for all the wonderful comments on my Green Lantern custom. Here is my second custom Plastic Man! I have been a fan of Plastic Man since the old cartoon series I feel he is one of the most underused/developed characters in comic history. I have been trying like mad to get a hold of a cheap stretch Plas but I collect on a tight budget so a high end item like that is currently out of reach. But it got me off my butt and made me put this custom together! So I found the head when looking at Brian Leitner's home page and he was gracious enough to make me a copy. So it's his sculpt and my paints for the head. For the suit I used two CTVT suits a flesh one and a red one and I turned the red one backwards and removed the buttons and the legs and added his black laces. For his belt I used a thick piece of black elastic and thin yellow ribbon. His belt sticker is made with construction paper put through a sticker machine. I cut the paper by hand to give it a kind of uneven "Mego" look to it. So with out further adieu here he his, I hope you guys like him! Thanks for looking!

Very mego-ey as well! Also very creative use of resources...I love it when I find something in my drawer that is exactly what I needed for a custom.

Ingenious use of whatever is at hand! Those are the best customs...

Pretty sweet. Plas is one I still haven't gotten to.

You have a great creative approach to problem solving the outfits for these guys. I would not have thought of turning a suit around like that. It worked perfectly. Nice job.

[Brown Bear]

Another fine job.
