Well, I'm not exactly ready to wrap his head in the flag and throw him one
for Old Glory. . .

Got some pics of it unpainted here:

http://www.reelartstudios.com/ArtGalleries/PulpFiction/docsa vage.htm

 

I love the Boris painting on which it's based..the way he's kind of leaning back, while looking off to whatever challenge is looming...like a bow pulled taught, ready to strike...cool.

BTW...got a barnes and noble giftcard for the holidays and among the things I bought myself was the JLA That Was Then This is Now collection....vintage, pure vintage comics goodness from Stern and Byrne

That's Bob Larkin, doing a pretty good James Bama impression.

Love the Alpha Flight to Randy! (and pretty much everything else you produce)
I think this is what Randy was trying to post:
Metallic Captain America





apparently the colours are not quite so dark.
Looks really cool. I like the rotated head. It makes me want to buy a Thor (and the rest of the Avengers for that matter...)
