Still a work in progress but I got the modified form I've been working on dressed.
This is the cosplay cowl and not the Ultimate Cowl.

No clue why the images rotated... They are upright when clicked on.

Like stepping back in time. If you had your painted bust in the cowl, it would look like Adam was actually standing there.

Wonderful work and attention to detail. I'm guessing the slight appearance of the rib cage was to resemble West's early 1st season physique? That's what immediately came to mind when I clicked on your photos.

Wow Chuck, this is brilliant. I seem to remember some shots of a WIP some time ago, is this the same form? How long did it take you from start to finish?

Thanks guys!!! 😀
It's been ages Jimmy! One of those back, back, WAY back burner projects. If I were to guess how long it actually took ( without overthinking it 😉), it probably took a couple of weeks.

Insanely cool! Those colors, that customised form and pose - impressive as hell. Another level altogether!

Not a bad idea. I’m sure there will be others who would like to display their costumes on something like that. Perhaps Mark would like one for the museum.

Chuck, I was just thinking about this post last night. Walking through the local mall, there was a game store (yes, we still have a mall). In the window, they had those life-size fiberglass statues of the overly muscular Batman, Superman, etc.

I thought:“wouldn’t it be great to see Chuck’s realistically proportioned mannequin mass-produced as 1:1 scale fiberglass displays for comic shops and collectibles stores?”

Any chance of that? They have those full body scanners that could capture it. I know it would need licensing from DC and probably Adam West’s estate, but how cool would it be to be able to purchase that instead of those unappealing muscle bound hunks of fiberglass?
