    trench coat

    I've always sewed by hand (been scared of using a machine). But because my wife gave me my Christmas present early last week... a new Singer... I took a crack at it.

    I have a feeling I'm going to be making a lot of trench coats between now and Mego Meet. ;-)

    Fresh, not from concentrate.

      That looks terrific. My sister-in-law gave me her sewing machine, but I have been kind of intimidated to try it out. How hard was it to pick up?

          That is hot!!!! With the hat and trenchcoat you also have the makings of a Professor Henry Jones figure.

          I'd be in for a trenchcoat if you decide to sell them.
          If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

            Nice job, and I just realized that sculpt could double for Captain Peacock.

              The getting started and stopping was the biggest challenge for me. It took a little practice, but it was easier than I thought.

                Your work is always amazing. With a machine, you'll be unstoppable. Please keep me posted if you make up a bunch of trench coats. My Frank Castle would appreciate one.

                  That looks fantastic. One in hunter green will make a great Green Hornet. I'd love one.

                    I really like how you but the snap in the back for the belt. The front buckle looks so clean that way.

                    Now you've inspired me to man up and learn how to use the little one I picked up a couplpe years ago.
