    Modern Black Lightning

    I've played and played with this pattern for two years trying to figure out how to do this outfit. I've gone through several pieces of material and scrapped lots of vinyl in the attempts to do this version. This may have worked finally.

    I found some scraps of blue metallic I thought would look dynamic next to the black. I only had enough for this project and one chance to sew it. I'm unsure of the head origin, but it looks kinda like Sam Jack. It's not as good as I envisioned, but I've got this project off the books. It's nowhere near perfect, but here's Jefferson Pierce. Heh, I share his last name.












    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

              I diggin' it!


              Looks like the head might have come from a Mace Windu since that's the character that's bald w/out facial hair unlike Jules or Shaft. (Octopus from the Spirit line has a hat and is all screamy).

                That blue you used is amazing! Plus I think the lightning on his costume really works the way it stands out. A+!
