Man, that looks great!

Very appropriate, since the original BB design was clearly aping the Phantom. Great work!!!

That is one very nice Captain Action custom. How'd you do the gloves? Very nice work. I'll check the CA stash and see if I have any Phantom cowls.

Gloves are the Round 2 Cap America gloves but I had to shorten the Round 2 figure's arms or else you get this really bad gorilla arm thing going on. I took roughly a 1/4" off each arm at the wrist - then used Hot Toys wrist joints after modifing the new stumps to accept them. The gloves are then stripped an repainted because the paint Round 2 uses stays 'tacky" on their rubber products. To get that shine...I like using Pledge Floor wax. After it dries it retains it shine without being tacky or sticky. PS thanks for looking for the cowl....need just the back part to finish my other custom.

Looks great!

Is that one of my Phantom cowls?

Yes it is brother...had to trim it down and prime it and paint it with a mix to match my material...I want to make a yellow gloved version as well - thats why I need the extra cowl. Then I want to get ToyRoom to make me some boxes. Jase
