    I did the arms and legs, too. I just didn't make any for anybody else. That's when the Doc Mego Hulk body came out with longer limbs. I added articulation to the wrists and didn't get a chance to mold and cast them before they were kind of obsolete, with a China made body readily available.

      I didn't get as far as I hoped last night. Time to fill in the gaps.

        WOW! I can't wait to see this when it's done. Looking good so far! I have been struggling with a custom I want to make using the Hulk's body. Fits great with original Joe but a little short for Mego 12in figures.

          I just need to let the resin cure completely and then it's time for a little spot putty and sanding.

              It's as if Geppetto became Dr. Frankenstein. Fascinating.

                I originally made a waist like yours looks, but had to alter it because of the pants. You may want to dress him before you decide his final sculpt.

                  I am definitely going to need to tweak the pelvis so it flows better into the torso. It's still off by at least a quarter inch and looks goofy from the side view.

                      Almost done. I need to fix a couple tiny spots and seal it. An awful lot of work to grow two inches!

                            Almost there. I have a pretty good color match. I hope that once I seal the painted parts will match the sheen of the biceps.

                              I'm truly digging how you are documenting this and sharing your progress. It's fun to follow along and see this develop.
