Here are my latest DC Direct 13"-scale customs. This time, all 3 were produced using the "teen" body: Kid Flash was made from a DCD Robin (expensive!), while Speedy and Star-Spangled Kid used the Spirit body (much more affordable !).
For Kid Flash, I wanted to use a Robin head due to the hair wave, I also swiped a pair of SA Flash boots and head wings. The rest, including the emblem, was hand-made:
For Speedy I used the Spirit body with a re-painted Hot Toys True-Type head (I intended to sculpt additional hair for him but decided he looked ok with a buzz cut). The mask is a trimmed and re-painted Black Canary mask, the hat, bow, and arrows are from a DCD Green Arrow, and the arrow pack/quiver is a heavily modified and re-painted green Arrow quiver. Boots are from Sinestro.
Finally, Star-Spangled Kid was made from a DCD movie Spirit. The boots are modified Martian Manhunter boots, the belt is a modified MM belt, and the rest, including cosmic rod, was hand-made. The stars were from a sheet of stickers I found at the craft store, painted white. Over time I think they'll peel, so eventually I may need to reinforce the adherence with some fabric glue.
