Silver-Age Blackhawk

[gman]

Ever since Dreams and Visions made a Blackhawk GI Joe I have been wanting this guy....

I got a Secret Santa gift from David Lee last year and in it was a painted George Reeves head -- Well I thought it looked like the 12" guy so I used the head as my starting point... The pants were a pair of CTVT khakis that I bought a couple of years ago from Paul Clare in a clearance sale.. The shirt is from CTVTs tuxedo .. Boots are Castaways - detailed the heel and sole. Guns are PMAJ soldier with leather belt and strap added. The detail on the shirt was added by me based on this idea...

The emblem is from Kingdom Warrior --- Thank you again!!!
A very fun and easy project....

I loved the Blackhawk comic. Great job!

[The Toyroom]

Fantastic job, Gman! I love that it's the rarely seen Silver Age version to boot!

[Yugo]

I love your GI Joe customs, Scott. This one is no exception.

The head works great.

Now if we could just get CTV to make us some Kung Fu grips.

[Earth 2 Chris]

That's very nice, and oddly appropriate, considering Reeves' Superman predecessor Kirk Alyn also played Blackhawk!

Great job!
