    Dr Fate





    Kent Nelson, the son of an American archaeologist, accompanies his father on an expedition to Egypt in the 1920s. When his father opens the tomb of the wizard Nabu, and is killed for the violation, Nabu takes pity on the orphaned Kent. The wizard raises him, teaching him the skills of a wizard and bestowing upon him a mystical helm and amulet

      He looks great Paul, but is it possible to dye the cape and cuffs? The yellow looks a bit faded, which is a shame wih such a cool custom

        ^^^ Do the colors match better in person? The suit I sewed for you should look lighter than that unless you dyed it. Nice custom!!

          Very cool take on Doc but I agree with Thomas he looks a little washed out...
          maybe it's just the flash?

            The colors do match a lot better in person...they are just a tad off...but not the way it looks here

                Good job! I made a Hector Hall Dr. Fate awhile back with the Egyptian collar. I am thinking about selling him and making a classic Doctor Fate like this.

                  Very nice figure Paul. You can tell that the different fabrics are picking up the light differently.

                    Take him outside and get some shots in natural sunlight. Never use your flash to take pictures of action figures.

                      Nice work, Dr. Fate is a great character to customize and you did a great job.
                      It was like that when I got here.

                        What Ant said. I just figured that out myself.
