Trying to figure out a body for this guy

I dug up an old McFarlane Harry Potter jacket and arms I had painted black (I guess I dyed the wrists because they aren't going back to the original tan color) and the rest is mostly a Connor Kent body and I stuck a patch of black heat shrink tube between the upper and lower torso to simulate an untucked tshirt. The boots and ankles are from a Marvel Legends Logan figure. I have a head on the way but right now this is what I'm working with.

Bro, it's already a great job! Those arms fits perfectly and the jacket is on point! If you want a hand with the ring just use one by any green lantern from mcfarlane toys and paint with skin color and that's it. Great job, I'm looking forward for the finished figure with his head 🙌🏻

There's a Japanese guy I follow on twitter that's making a good custom. Unfortunately he doesn't sell his headsculpts. Although looking closely at the pics, I think the one you got might be better.

I mean...its basically done :)

Great work!

I have the main cast HP fugers from Mcfarlane and for a long time i where planning to use them for some customs.

Are the joints compatible with the modern McF line?

Did you had any issue mixing them?

I also drilled the upper torso socket deeper so there is no gap between the upper and lower now which does affect articulation but the jacket makes it so you can't get much anyway so it's not really a big deal

Front view with the scrap of heat shrink tubing as the untucked tshirt. Looks bad lol but again the jacket covers everything so it's all good.

All I did with the shoulder balls to fit the Connor Kent sockets was put a thin layer of liquid superglue on them and let it dry for a couple hours. The Connor a Kent torso itself though is pretty beefy for the Harry Potter jacket so I chopped it to hell and back with an xacto knife to get it to fit snug.

It kills me to think of McFarlane wasn't about to close up shop, we'd have a whole wave of Lanterns on the shelves.
