Plastic Man anybody?
First post and mock up so be gentle :]

The neck would be made using a technique similar to this

and may or may not be retractable (I'm still toying with some ideas).

Nice Mock-Up! I don't like the character, but it looks good!

Yeah he is a pretty polarizing character. I love him, but most of my friends think he's a disgrace to DC comics.

DC didn't own him till the 50's, up until that point he was owned by Quality Comics. Also, Plastic Man first appeared in 1941, while Mr Fantastic first arrived on the scene 20 years later in '61. (Sorry, I'm a DC guy :] )

And thanks to both of ya'll for lookin and for the nice comments :]

@DIB-- even in a one-piece PM stays classy (or pervy, depending on how you look at it lol)

The Elongated Man (DC) was around (slightly) before Mr. Fantastic, also, so ol' Stan wasn't exactly first on that score by a couple of characters. ;) He is still "The Man," of course :)

Nice mock-up, btw. Thinkin' about it, I think Plastic Man was on tv tonight, as I could swear I saw him. My son must've been watchin' The Brave and the Bold.
