Black Panther | man without fear
 

So, I've been dabbling on the comicbook side of the action figure realm lately. Here's my first of a few comic customs I've been working on. In the comic world Daredevil has taken a hiatus from crime fighting and the Black Panther (T'challa) has taken over in his place. Panther has modified his costume from his traditional garb to adapt to crime fighting in the streets. There were two artistic renditions I wanted to borrow aspects from when creating the custom and they are listed in the pics below, Francesco Francavilla's rendition added a nice bullet proof vest and pouches and Gabriele Dell'Otto who added gold accents to the costume. All in all I'm pretty pleased and I also did a little bit of experimentation with the lighting and using a backdrop for the photography to change things up a bit, I hope y'all dig.

*this was also my first time cracking open a MU figure and Joe torso to do a barbell swap for the leg swap.

Recipe:
-Artic Destro legs and barbell and vest
-Target two pack MU Black Panther
-POC Firefly backpack pouches
