After an extended break, I finished a couple of new 13" DC Direct customs today - the Simon & Kirby Golden Age Sandman and Sandy, the Golden Boy. After starting his career in the classic suit/gas mask/fedora costume in the early Golden Age of comics, in December of 1941 Sandman was updated with a more traditional superhero costume and given a kid sidekick (they were all the rage in the 40's!).
For Sandman, I used a DCD Superman figure & head, painted a pair of Green Arrow boots I had, used Lex Luthor's holster & kryptonite ray gun to stand in for his wirepoon gun, and the rest I made by hand.
Sandy is a movie Spirit figure with the head repainted, he's wearing Superman's trunks, belt and modified boots, he also has a Lex Luthor holster & gun, and the rest I made by hand.
Mostly satisfied with how they came out, though I may take another stab at Sandman's mask at some point.
And here's a pic of them with my custom of the earlier incarnation of Wesley Dodds:
