    The Old Timer

    The companion to two hard travelling heroes in the classic O'Neil/Adams Green Lantern/Green Arrow, the Old Timer, the Guardian of the Universe fallen from grace. Made from a Lion Rock War Heroes head re-sculpted on a re-strung Classic TV Toys 7" body. The shoes were in my parts box; no real idea where I got them from (most likely some Barbie knock-offs).

      I really like the hair! It looks like cotton or some sort of fiberfill material?

      And really nice the way you did the cuffs and the waist. You could have totally gotten away without doing it... but that sort of attention to detail is what sets your customs apart.

        Actually, my original Guardians did use pulled cotton balls for their hair when I first made them; it was a number of years later I replaced it with fake fur. I used similar fur here so he'd match his blue skinned counterparts.

          Well done, what a unique custom to make.. I wish you had a picture of him next to GL & GA.
