Custom of the Week - 6/22/2015 - Come Back Elvis Special

Jun 22, '15, 9:22 PM

This week the spotlight falls on Elvis as depicted by boss for his '68 Come Back Elvis Special. Featuring a 3D printed head by noelani72, and some wicked thread work and paint by Mr. Bossart this is one stunning figure sure to pucker anyone's lip.

See the original thread here:

Elvis - '68 Come Back Special - Mego Talk

http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?103728-Elvis-68-Come-Back-Special

The jacket took forever (actually about 5 hours, but still...). Thanks again to Chad for the 3D printed head.

And as an added bonus, check out an earlier version from Bryan from back in 2012:

Elvis has entered the building! - Mego Talk

http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?77253-Elvis-has-entered-the-building!&highlight=Elvis

Here's my finished Elvis figure. The head is one I reworked from a shrunken DC 9" Aquaman figure. the paints and clothes are mine. If anyone's interested, I'll be selling painted heads (and possibly full figures).
