MLJ Heroes: The Black Hood

[palitoy]

It's my goal in 2017 to complete the Might Crusaders, the oft forgotten superheroes of Archie comics fame. Some of them will be slightly complicated, some of them not so much.

The easiest one has to be the Black Hood, especially in his golden/silver age duds.



This was completed hobbled together with parts from FTC and Dr Mego. The most work i did was the pleather collar.



The next character won't be as phoned in, i promise.

Nice job! Clean and simple, very Mego-esque!

Looks great
Strong work

I wouldn't disparage a kit-bash as "phoned-in"--that's what makes DM and CTVT so wonderful . He looks great, nice pose too.

I like the Archie heroes, but I know them mostly from the DC/Impact versions. Hopefully you'll try some foes, too--some of them from the Remco mini-figs looked cool.

Phoned in???...I guess you'd have to blame the artist for that then.
Your figure looks completely accurate to the art portrayed so I say great job!!!
Keep them coming.

I have the DC/Impact versions on my to do list. Looking good.

I completely concur. Not (y)our fault the character is drawn the way he is.

He looks just like his one-dimensional counterpart has come to life. Bravo!

nice looking figure the yellow fabric looks different from the usual doc mego suits.

Thanks for the nice words guys, I didn't mean to bash kitbash in any way, just didn't really do much of anything on this guy, he just kinda came together.

The next member of the Crusaders is almost done and he's been a big PITA.

I love kitbashed customs, and simple bold costume designs.

This is a charming custom

[BATMAN89]

Love it Brian! He is still on my to do list.

[TrekStar]

He came out awesome, is that a yellow cotton body suit from ctvt? great job.

I've been trying to recall who the FTC head looks like and you got it! Very nice. That's the perfect kitbash!

[thunderbolt]

Nice one, and I the parts are there, why not kitbash?
