The figure itself was fairly easy to put together on this. Boot swivel was maintained by having the cut at the top of the horizontal yellow strap. The cape gave me problems. I can't sew so had to use spray adhesive to glue the different colored cloths together. That made it firmer where though it bends easily and doesn't hinder articulation, it doesn't naturally create folds when it hangs under gravity. I don't wire the bottom of cloth capes because having only the sides wired usually lets the cape hang and creates folds and curves naturally, but with this cape having a sandwiched glue layer it resists sagging too much in the middle and so doesn't create the undulating folds and curves. In this instance it would have worked better if I also wired the bottom of the cape so folds and curves can be forced into it. Maybe someday I'll learn to use a sewing machine and then can upgrade the wired cloth capes I've made, but for now this is good enough to move on otherwise I'll get bogged down and lose momentum while having a lot of DC characters to do still.

Looks great! Are you the same guy that built an articulated raptor back in the day? I was looking for the pictures, but they don't show anywhere

Yup, that raptor was mine. I built that and a Zabu. They were entered into a Custom Con back in 2008 or 2009. They were also in my Customs thread on the The Fwoosh. The Fwoosh had multiple crashes that wiped out everything in their Customs forum, and some of the sites that hosted Custom Con no longer exist, including the site that hosted the CC that the raptor and zabu were in, so images of them have disappeared from the web.

Thanks. Getting my customs to be clean and look factory is what I strive for. I may not always achieve it, but it's nice to hear when people think I did on a piece.
