Hourman & Captain America
I redid my crappy Hourman that I was never satisfied with. I dyed a Captain America suit black. Then I cut out and designed a hood and cape from some nice golden yellow satin like material.
Getting the hood to fold around the neck and form a mask type thing over the head was tricky but after a few ideas I finally got it to work.
The head might not be a good choice, a member on here told me he looks like a flaming homosexual (not sure what that means).
All good, maybe I will use the head for Northstar. We could use some more gay superheroes!
The full costume I am still not happy with. I am debating on picking up a silkscreen version of the Hourman suit from a member on here. The black dye seems to be fading but not too bad.
Now Captain America has been with me for awhile. Paul Clark (Dr. Mego) came up with the sleeves awhile ago to enhance my Captain America suit. He also sold me the red gloves and boots.
I had a repo shield for many years until I saw a member on here that found this new Captain America shield. It comes with a Marvel Zombies Captain America figure, so I had to repaint it with metallic paints. What is so incredible about the shield is the fact it is hard plastic and can strap over his back.
Classic huh?
The shield can be brought around and slipped over his arm and it stays in place pretty well. I would suggest picking up one of these for your Cap. They have these crappy Marvel Zombies figures all over Spencers stores for two to three dollars.
