HAWKMAN | ![]() |

![]() The first thing I did was to switch the Martian Manhunter's legs for Batman's using the boil-n-pop method. The two sets of legs weren't completely compatible, so putting the Batman legs back on the MM torso wasn't exactly easy. I finally got them on, but they're so tight that they won't bend at all (which is okay, I suppose, since his wings won't let him sit down anyway).
Next I used Kneaditite to fill in the holes left from where the MM's cape attached to his shoulders; I also used it to complete the straps which cross over his chest. Another thumbtack was pushed into his chest where the straps meet to form his Hawk emblem. Then he was ready for painting. I chose to go with a color scheme which matched Mattel's Hawkgirl. Hawkman is taller than several of my animated figures, especially the newer Justice League figures, but he fits in pretty well with the older-style Superman, Batman and other customs made from those bases.
