    Dick Tracy Easy to-do Custom

    Dick Tracy: Easiest custom you can do. It started out a a Classic Superman but wasn't happy with it then went for Dick Tracy. Everything is CTVT. The head is Shazam, the rest are CTVT stock items.

        I bought the parts for this last summer and I don't know how you got that yellow coat to fit over the black jacket short of cutting the sleeves off. I found it impossible. Just curious, can you bend the arms at the elbow or does the fabric restrict any movement?

                  I was thinking that as well. May use a vest instead of a suit coat. Same affect better mobility

                    Yeah, I might have to do that as well. I couldn't get mine to work.

                        I did this as well with supes,but using the shazam head though is a better idea.i also did a shadow,like using the hat from Solomon Kane.
