So, I held off posting over the weekend ... Saturday's entry was too weak to stand by itself, and I was busy all day yesterday.

First up today, LBC Marine.
Not much to say about this, except -- do marines wear berets? red berets?
This qualifies for my project, as these parts have been in a WIP baggie for about four years.... lame, I know ...

Second up today, Professor X
Like a lot of you, when I saw the Jake Sully wheelchair, I knew I had to make a Prof X custom
One note on this: the Gordon figure plastic is so crappy, i actually broke one of the legs off just moving it into a sitting position. I also cut off the hammer hands, drilled out the sleeves & added random 25th Joe hands

Head: DC Lex Luthor
Body, Legs: DC Commish Gordon
Hands: Random 25th Joe
Coat: Golden Compass
Chair: Avatar Jake Sully



Finally today: Bobbi Morse, AKA Mockingbird

I shouldn't even post this, after Chief just posted his amazing version.... But in the spirit of the WBM, I wrapped her up, as far as I am. I'd still like to fashion a mask for her, possibly just out of a card bubble, and I even have an idea for a removable mask using greenstuff (maybe for a 2.0 version) I also need to get a styrene rod to make her battle staves, with a removable version of them to put on her right thigh (that's why the strap is left there). I've been wanting to make a Mockingbird ever since NJC #2 (Hawkeye) ... figured it was high time!

Entire figure is 25th Scarlett except for lower arms, which are Walrus Man's

thoughts?

Mock is awesome - love how you did the sleeves. Sweet-ass paint job, too.

Prof X is cool, but the jacket looks too bulky on the smaller DCIH body.

Marines don't wear berets. Especially Raspberry ones... ;)

Thanks Chief --

yeah, that Prof coat is too bulky ... it didn't seem as bad when Charlie was standing .. of course, he can't stand anymore .. i had to glue the leg in the sitting position ..

good thing that marine has to guard the lower level of the Flagg -- he would get such a pinch from his comrades ...

thanks for the comments!

//i still like your mockingbirds more ... both of 'em ...

well Chief at least came up with a code name for your Marine - Prince

I like most everything here. Agree about the coat being bulky, but I don't mind it. I do mind that I have the exact same head for my Prof X unfinished WIP though. If that tells you anything about how much further behind you I am in my own WIP finishing

Nice.

Mocking bird came out looking fantastic. At least as good as Chief's so there is no shame in your effort or anything.

Awesome Mockingbird here. I agree she needs a removable mask to top her off. :)
