So I had done this version of Jor El before where I took fabric and with a ruler striped te fabric over and over and over again with a sharpie. This time I'm super happy to show off a new skill I've brought to my craft... Printed fabric... That's right. Printed... M@&$€£¥%'n... Fabric. Something I began tinkering with this week... And just you wait. It's about to get crazy :)

This robe was drawn in Adobe illustrator to scale over a photo of the figure, printed on red fabric and then fitted to figure permanently with hot glue.

Modifications to figure include swapping out arms and lower legs with a MOS Superman figure for the correct look. As well the wrist cuffs became a point where I separated the lower arm and on a sprue, re-assembled the arm with the fabric sandwiched inbetween. It's hard to explain but if you've examined the costume before, you know what I'm talking about...

Finally I finished him off with a nice dark brown cape. He is now ready to defy council.

That's awesome man! Been waiting for more movie master stuff from you! I'd love to give this an attempt but feel you'd need to show me in person to grasp this. I can kind of get it but, I'll leave it up to you.

It was tricky at first but I developed a system after a few tries. Take a sheet of contact paper and trim it to 8.5"x11" and then tape off one 8.5" edge with 2" tape (1" on front & 1" on back so the printer pulls it in. Voila!!
