The idea is to have it look like this, ultimately:

Except I want him with more of a standard GL symbol.

That's a wicked-looking GL Turtle. Who drew that?

The figure looks as if it may turn out well.

I see it's getting some Sinestro parts. Turtlestro! :lol: This is gonna look awesome, methinks.

No, that's actually a seperate figure for me. Sinestro-as-Parallax.

And also, for anyone interested, a new custom I have on the way as well.

Andy, we may have our disagreements, but man that's a good looking custom. Good job.

Do you plan on painting the GL logo on the knee pads, or are you finished?

I didn't do them. A friend is making them for me to include in a Youtube short film.

I don't like the GL logo on the kneepads (a TMNT GL shouldn't look that special... I like the GL uniform to be mostly uniform), so that's not going to happen.

Understood. I can see what you mean.

Is that why the gloves are solid and there's no green wrist wraps?

That's a solid lookin' Gee El-Leo. I don't know who Parallax is, though, so I'm uncertain what traits other than green-ness and a cape has been given to Sinestro.

Exactly. The green wrist wraps on top of white gloves seemed odd, just there for the TMNT's standard outfit's sake.

Cool DC/TMNT amalgam. The only things that would make it better is a lantern (maybe with a turtle shell design) and some transparent green ring projection accessories.

I have plenty of GL props to give him. For green ring projection accessories, I'll be going one better... the little Youtube show I'm planning to do with this figure, he'll be flying, talking (with moving lips, even), making ring constructs, and shooting a ring-beam and such.

Can see the series it'll appear on (though not for a couple of months, just because I'm backed up with other ones before it) here:

And actually the TMNT do show up in a cameo after the credits on Episode 15 that you can watch there. Blink and you'll miss it. All 4 NECA figures run past.

I think that's pretty cool, actually.

Here's a couple more pics.

Anyone that wants a custom like this, I can hook you up with the guy that makes them.

I Can't say I'm crazy about the high level of gloss...but I'm more of a matte finish guy in general. Other than that I love it :-)
