    Black Manta

    This is my Black Manta. I got the head from Black Kryptonite and it was actually the first resin heads I ever bought. They came super fast and I was SO FREAKIN' excited when I opened the package. I always thought the superfriends Black Manta was like the Darth Vader of the ocean.



    I'd still like to clean up his helmet a little. Frustrating because I masked it with tape and everything.



    His backpack (I forgot to buy one) is a medium-sized half wooden egg from ye olde craft store, painted silver and stuck on. I think it is pretty sleek and works for the character.



    What do you think of the pictures? Realistic looking?

      I like it! The backpack is a cool take on him. Fred's stuff is great to paint.

                        He was one of my favorites as well, but more for the cool electronic voice that they did for him.

                        Mr. Spock: "I am not aware of anyone who fits that description, Captain"
                        Capt. Kirk: "No, Mr. Spock, I didn't think you would be"
