    First custom, Greatest American Hero

    I just started making custom Megos, and though I have several in various stages of completion, this is the first one finished.


    He started out as a CTVT Ralph Malph,
    I painted the head, the suit is hand sown by my wife, and the white stripes on the costum are made with colored electrical tape, and the belt is made from craft foam.
    I also made a box for him.

        Thanks, the boots are actually a REALY beat up pair of Superman boots, completely covered in red electrical tape.

                    I never tire of seeing someone's first custom - especially when it's as nice as this one. This first custom is LIGHT YEARS ahead of my first attempt - very, very nice work for a first time out!

                    I look forward to seeing many, many more!

                          Thanks for all the kind words. I'll be posting my next custom soon, and it's a bit more ambitious than this one...and my first attempt at sculpting a head too.
