I made this for my brother for X-mas (hope he doesn't read this). I've always liked the design of the charcter and tried to give it a little touch of realism. As always I welcome your comments
Recipe: Head- Indiana Jones w/sculpted goggles Torso- 25th Crimson Guard Legs- ROC Cobra Commander Cape- Darth Vader w/sculpt Thanks for looking |

Very nice, and something really different for a custom subject. That was a cool character and episode.

I remember that episode; And when batman took the gray ghost back to the batcave and the ghost saw the tribute to him among bats' trophys. Also the Gray Ghost is a real thing... During WW2, german u-boat commanders told stories of a ghost ship, larger than any ship they had ever encountered. It was gray in color, and it moved like a ghost across the sea, faster than any ship could move. There were wild tales told about it... how it would be reported in one area, but when u-boats went to investigate, it was gone... how it was immune to torpedos... among others. After the war, the secret was finally revealed to be the Queen Mary. The Queen Mary had been painted gray and converted to a troop ship, ferrying thousands of soldiers across the ocean. Since it was a great deal faster than the average ship of the day, that explained how it seemed to appear and disappear to the much slower u-boats. The rest of the wild stories were just stories, repeated from person to person until they became legends, with very little reality in them.

Interesting story. Great custom. Don't recognize the character but looks cool.
