Even though I'm mostly unfamiliar with the character, I always thought he was a dynamic looking costume, and I'm a sucker for Superman ripoffs. THis figure was another experiment using different tools and materials I've never really tried before like craft foam and fabric paint. Overall, it doesn't suck but is far from good. I'm just trying to do some different things and attempt new techniques. I guess there's a basic Space Ghost in one of these shots too. Not too impressive either.

I think they RoCk! I don't even know who the first guy is, but he's neat. Space Ghost rules as well. I myself have just begun to consider using craft foam on some projects, so thanks for the boost in my confidence that it does work. Great work!

Thanks for the feedback guys.
I forgot to mention some of the ingredients in this. The head is a Chakotay from Voyager with sculpey headgear. I toned down my flesh coloring and it worked pretty well. Here's the best part...the shoulder pads. If anyone has a Famous Covers Doc Doom, I removed his boots and sliced off the knee joint and painted it with Testors paint stick.
I gotta get better at using medical gloves when I work, cause there are too many fingerprint marks on the head. I was able to mask most of them with paint though. This guys was a good step in the learning process.

WOw. Never expected that. I didn't think it was that great, but that proves that everyone sees things differently and that the creator is usually the harshest critic. Much appreciated.
