<p><span>Head: DCD &quot;Angry&quot; Superman (Black Arachnis Cast), heavily modified<br />         Body: DCUC Superman, modified<br />         Hair:&nbsp; Lower part from LOTR Aragorn, Upper part sculpted (kneadatite)<br />        Arm veins, neck tendons, sleeves, bootcuffs, chest symbol: sculpted<br />         Belt ornamentation: Doodads from Walmart&#8217;s doodad aisle.</span></p>

<p><span>&nbsp;</span> <br />     <span>CREDITS:&nbsp; A completely different recipe, but 100% inspired by the version done by KRAFTYWERKS a few years ago. (Krafty&#8217;s been MIA for awhile&#8230;Where are you,J&#8211;?)</span></p>
<p><span>I had done a prior version using the same head but with a ML Captain America body/Wolverine arms a few years ago, but thought the 4H Supes sculpt worked better for Doc&#8230;with the DCD head, I hope it&#8217;s reminescent of John Byrne&#8217;s take on the character.</span></p>

<p>On Earth-2, Richard Grayson (the original Robin) eventually succeeded Batman as a member of the Justice Society. As an adult, the Earth-2 Robin continued the battle against crime, wearing an updated uniform until finally giving up his life during the final battle against the Anti-Monitor. </p>
<p><img title="" alt="" src="/custom-showcase/wp-content/uploads/DCUC%20Custom%20Showcase/earth2robin.jpg" height="504" width="432" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;The Earth-2 Robin figure originally began as (surprise, surprise) a DCUC Batman. I removed the original Batman head and replaced it with one from a DC Direct &quot;Rebirth&quot; Hal Jordan Green Lantern. The belt is taken from a DC Direct Silver Age Batman figure while the collar is trimmed material from a spare Justice League Unlimited Batman cape. The mask and hair were sanded down and then reworked with Magic Sculpt. The rest is just a simple bit of paint!</p>
<p>Sure, the costume is outrageously goofy, but that&#8217;s part of the appeal. And, while there&#8217;s no chance of him being intimidating in person, it does let the Earth-2 Robin shine as a fun action figure on the toy shelf. </p>

<p><span>Martian Manhunter is a DCSH Bizarro base with a DCSH Superman cape and a SOTA Street Fighter Guile head. The straps are leather and the collar is a toothpaste tube. Everything else is apoxie sculpt. I made the fatal mistake of finishing him with Krylon Matte Finish spray&#8230; so now he&#8217;s a sticky dust magnet. Oh well, the deadline&#8217;s here so no time to try to fix and repaint him!</span></p>

<p><span>&nbsp;</span><br />  This figure was a must-have.&nbsp; Pop off Supergirl&#8217;s head, and carefully cut off the hard rubber hair from the head.&nbsp; Using a hacksaw, cut the figure at the top of the skirt.&nbsp; Remove the head, limbs, collar, &amp; hips from Harley Quinn, leaving just the logo free torso.&nbsp; Use sculpting putty to fill the base of Supergirl&#8217;s skirt and mold a waist joint to join the Torso.&nbsp; Paint and attach the arms from Catwoman.&nbsp; Finally, carefully remove the rubber hair/wig from OMWF buffy; paint, and reattach to Supergirl&#8217;s head.</p>

<p><span>DCSH Catwoman - Body, Hands &amp; Legs<br />    DCD Hush Catwoman - Head &amp; Goggles<br />    DCUC Harley Quinn - Arms</span></p>
<p>Swapped out the DCSH Catwoman head for the Hush one - had to mod the neck a bit to get the Hush CW head to go on and look right.</p>
<p><span><img alt="" title="" src="/custom-showcase/wp-content/uploads/DCUC%20Custom%20Showcase/BUZZY_CAT1.jpg" height="583" width="606" /></span> </p>
<p><span>Swapped out the DCSH CW arms with a pair from a DCUC Harley Quinn - had to cut off the pegs on the CW and use small screws to get the HQ arms on correctly. Cut off HQ&#8217;s hands just behind the wrists, installed small screws and put on the DCSH CW&#8217;s hands.</span></p>
<p><span>Then used Citadel Black (my fave black) to paint the red arm black - the Citadel has a soft matte finish that matches the black of the DCSH CW purrrrfectly (couldn&#8217;t resist) - and BAM! Sexy Catwoman!</span></p>
<p><span><img alt="" title="" src="/custom-showcase/wp-content/uploads/DCUC%20Custom%20Showcase/BUZZY_CAT2.jpg" height="651" width="604" /></span><span> <br />  </span></p>
