Another one of my favorite characters of all time and seeing Loosecollector doing the TV series version made me remember what started it all. I did fill a bit intimidated since both Jin and Loosecollector recently made their own versions of Superman and Flash since I know I don't have their skill. I just hope I do the characters justice. I used my usual Sentry base with the DC Flash head, while removing and using the wings from the boots. I sculpted the chest emblem and all the lightning around the arms and waist, not forgetting to fill in the holes due to removing the cape and belt. I used my usual Model Masters Flat Black for a base coat and used the same brands Guards Red. I used GamesWorkshop Golden Yellow for the boots and lightning, finally Citadel Skull White for the emblem. Thanks for any comments and views, it was helps drive us all.

Sometimes when I look at the customs by the greats of figure realm I think wow what am I even doing? But then I remember: having fun and the doing the best I can. I'm sure those awesome builders would want you and even me to keep building our customs too so keep at it. Flash looks great!

thanks for the comment, everyone here on the realm to me is an inspiration because you are using your skills to create an idea either not made or you yourself had, which is inspirational. I believe each creator wants to see what we are capable of and do everything they can to help, some of the best have commented back to me, to my figs or answered questions to help when I do not have the skill or knowledge. I love having fun creating these it helps with my disability, so I say to keep up your great work also, because for me practice makes perfect. Thanks for the kind words and look forward to your work.

go ahead, love to see what you would do with it. I was going to do more of the tv series belt but forgot about it when I started and kept with the them of the arms. Thanks for the kind words, I questioned in the beginning the color, but I thought it set him off better.

thanks for the kind words, they mean a lot. I can't wait to see your version. I used that red, because I felt that flash would need a costume to cut down on static electricity or friction. Then I went and read he has an aura around him that protects him from that. I really went back and forth on the paint should I make it more flat to match my GL, but went with this color on Flash and Supes. People might need to keep wearing shades if I contiue with these bright colors. thanks.

I will work on that when I get a chance, looks like I did not do my research, but that would look a lot better. Thanks for the compliment and info.
thanks I don't really like the DC body for most of their characters, so I thought this worked well. Also most comic characters have a built up muscular body and it just fits it to a tee. thanks for the compliment.
thanks I really wanted my DC series to have an old school yet new comic book feel, while all fitting in together. thanks for the high praise.
