    The Man of the Atom-Doctor Solar

    Been kind of spinning my wheels lately trying to decide what to do next, when I found the 9 inch Cyclops on clearance at Target. I've been wanting to tackle the Gold Key characters for a long time, So here's my first. The great emblem comes courtesy of bobbait, sparkly suit and paint up by me, the rest is all Hasbro. I tried to capture the feeling of those great Gold Key painted covers.

      That ROCKS!!!!

      Does this mean we'll be seeing a Magnus as well??
      "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"

      In the Southeast Pacific, lies the sunken city of R'Leyh. There lies C'thulhu waits to return to our world with the other Great Old Ones. A hideous creature of enormous size and alien power, it waits for it's time to return patiently. For it has all the time in the world while it waits for the stars.

        Maybe, but there are a few in line in front of him.

            He looks awesome.Now you should try and tackle Radiactive man from the Simpsons.
            He does look wicked though great job T-bolt.

                Really AWESOME stuff T-Bolt! The material you used for the costume is really cool, what is it? The paint job of the head is really top notch!

                  Another classic custom from tbolt. Nice work on reworking the head, and the fabric is sweet. Great work again.

                              That is stunning. The paint is just perfect. He looks much better than the Cyclops.
