    My DC Universe!



    Doc Fate, Captain Marvel, and a still in progress Composite Superman (CS Head by BK, Doc and CS's suits by Austin.)



    Hawkman (He's an oldie...one of the first I did way back when. I think Austin did the suit, and I got the head, wings and mace from Doc...my crummy paints.)



    "Superman...what are you doing here in the park?" (tasteless blind guy joke)
    Doc gave me the Doc Mid-nite head, Doc M's suit by Austin. Paints and rest by me--Doc is another golden oldie who's about ten years old now...at least it seems like its been that long?)



    Silver Age Bats finds the Spectre poking around in the Batcave. (Spectre is all me, Bats is head/paint by BK/ suit by Brian Leitner)



    Wilcat, Robin, and Martian Manhunter. (MM head and paints by Dave Mc, Robin and Wildcat heads/paints by BK. I'm pretty proud of the new Robin look. Its the first sewn costume I've done myself from top to bottom. I got the idea from the Robins New Look feature in Batman #259. For the most part, all the suits were really just the then current suit with arms and leggings added. I originally had him in boots, but went back to the pixie boots since overall Robin is meant to be an acrobat, and I doubt he could flip around like he does with clunky boots on.)



    Alfred Pennyworth. (Fantastic paint job by Dave Mc to make his Vincent Price head look like Alfred from the seventies comics. Suit is one of Austins, with a coat and shoes added from Mego's Penquin.)

    Amazing!
    Dave McCormick is a talented painter! Love his work. Love how you have taken some of those silk screens and adapted them into your collection. That reminds me I definitely need to make an Alfred. Nice job all around!!
    I just finished a Dr. Midnite and used the same boots....is that a modified Batman head? Looks smooth.
    You should slap some boots on those guys. If you like them cheap, Classic Tv Toys is having a good sale. Those would make those silkscreens shine!

          Always nice to see JSA customs. I like how that Alfred turned out - nice and clean.

                That Robin outfit is really cool, love that belt. And Vincent Price looks great as Alfred
