    Reading your story reminded me what Harrison FOrd said about our dads in the Sean Connery tribute a few years back, to me that's the main theme of the last crusade.
    This Custom is awesome. I'm trying to do one but I used a Type S body and there is no way that the trench coat's sleeves can fit when the figure has the shirt on, maybe the arms a too buff lol

    Love this one... give him a Tommy gun!

        A very poignant and sincere story, thank you for sharing that with us.

        I personally am indifferent to Dick Tracy BUT, you did a phenomenal job on him. I really enjoyed the pics of him helping Batman arrest his arch-nemeses.

        Superbly done, sir.

              Great story Austin. You nailed it. With your Dad being a huge Tracy fan, he'd have no doubt loved this!

                                A great custom with a great tribute, and I third the idea for some D.T. villains.
