        I am curious how you did your fine details like the emblems, masks and belts. They are superb.

                        Many Thanks for everyones support I didn't think I would get so many comments - I will answer some of the questions people have asked. The emblems are hand cut vinyl with the commercial adhesive backing or foam sheets cut to shape and then craft glued on. I use to have access to a vinyl cutter at work but moved jobs and need to buy one for home use now its hand cut for the time being - very fiddly for things like Atom's logo. The patterns have all been trial and error but I have some reliable ones now considering how many different shaped figures/dolls there are now. The figure next to Martian Manhunter was Miss Patriot - A Timely Comic character but the colours proved wrong after a little research - she was quite an obscure character so I just went with the flow and made my own version as not to waste her. She should be basically red not blue.

                          Also I can sublimate print on to Synthetic fabrics so that is how I got Mr Teriffic's logo and the stars on Miss Patriot. More left over skills from my old jobs.

                            Masks are again fabric hoods or cowls with a plastic vinyl covered with adhesive vinyl. Belts are same sort of things and the accessories like Shadow Lass's emblems are jewellery finds and buttons cut down. Gotta be creative - I keep an eye out wherever I go you just never know what screams out to you.
