![[HELLBLAZER: John Constantine ("Simon Bisley&q] John Constantine lives in the DC universe, although on the fringes (which is usually limited to offhand references to men in tights 'over in America'). Constantine's character is an almost arch-typical trickster-mage, set in an urban fantasy context. John strives for the good of mankind in his own manipulative way against the dark beings and machinery of the universe.
So, that preface out of the way for those who don't know the character, here's more about this custom:
I really loved the gritty, strung-out, almost 'Heavy Metal' magazine art style Bisley uses in his illustrations of Jon recently for the title HELLBLAZER. Bisley's artstyle, and how he draws John Constantine also influenced the books interior art, although not quite as extreme.
Now, that depiction in mind, take a look at the 'factory' DC Universe 'Signature' series John Constantine figure by Mattel.
Yep. Crazy long monkey arms (+ hands with long wrists, making him nearly reach his knees), overly long pelvis, legs, &am](userimages/customs/46000/45553-1.jpg) HELLBLAZER: John Constantine ("Simon Bisley&q Sandmanby blaynescottJohn Constantine lives in the DC universe, although on the fringes (which is usually limited to offhand references to men in tights 'over in America')...13 comments | ![[Constantine Hellblazer] Hellblazer John Constantine Movie Version

A very steampunk rendition of Constantine is found in the DC/Vertigo title "Books of Magick: Life During Wartime" which chronicles the battle between two parallel versions of Earth.
Recipe:
John Constantine:
-ML Sentry (non bearded head, resculpted hair with Aves)
-Movie Masters Joker Goon (torso modified with sculpt, legs, shoes)
-X2 Cyclops (Hands, modified with Aves Sculpt / Magnet)
-HML Nick Fury (Longcoat, Arms)
-BTVS Spike Flask Accessory (resculpted + magnet)
-Plastic Cape fodder (hand cut neck tie)
-Neonium Magnets (for right foot, hand, and flask)
-Gel Type Superglue
-Liquid Type Krazy Glue superglue (paint sealant)
Used the Aves Sculpt + baby powder trick for attaching/maintaining articulation with the head (ball joint), and hands (swivel at the wrists).

![[John Constantine - HellBlazer] Forget Doctor Strange or Doctor Fate or any other pyjama wearing comicbook sorceror, when push comes to shove - theres only one true contender for the Throne.
My favourite magician and horror comicbook anti-hero - JOHN CONSTANTINE.
A British, chain smoking, sarcastically wise-cracking,Occult investigator wearing the shabby trenchcoat of a classic private eye detective.
Although usually a compassionate humanist and often heroic, Constantine pursues a life of dark magic and danger.
Hes a Magic junkie - getting an adrenaline kick from the strange and mysterious of the Occult. The more dangerous the better.
This has cost him the lives of many of his close friends, a lover and allies who now haunt him as ghosts.
Early attempts at using magic and his usual flippant arrogant attitude towards it - often backfired on John, leaving him guilt-stricken when he couldnt save a little girl called Astra from a Demon that he hgad summoned to destroy another. (See Hell Blazer #11). Years later he ma](userimages/customs/4000/3835-1.jpg) John Constantine - HellBlazer D.C.
