      Yes, you can. You make a plaster mold and slush cast with liquid latex. I used to make custom boots this way in the early 90's.

        And for a removable-cowl version of this figure, may I suggest ADA CHAN'S Christian Bale sculpt.



        As always, the sculpt work, detail, and quality casting is absolutely EXCELLENT, and Ada is now making Bale (and MANY celebrity heads) available for 8 inch MEGO scale!!

        This is very GOOD NEWS for many customizers who could not afford to commission a sculpt from Ada before.

        These celebrity sculpts are super-affordable (at $25)!!

        Let's all try to support Ada as much as we can! He confided that he can only justify making MEGO-sized heads if there is a demand from at least 25 customers.




        Yes!! This is Very good News!!!! At first She wanted to charge lots of money to do them in Mego scale....glad to see She's come around!

              Cool Buk...thanks! Still working this out in My Head...I know I don't want a complete Rubber Suit...but Pieces glued onto a Body Suit...so that He's still posable. And...I'll be using a bulked up Body...not a skinny Mego.

                    I found some black rubber dishwashing type gloves at Dollar Tree that are thin enough to use for mego costuming.
