[DC] Inspired Red Son - a photo on Flickriver

            The torso, and therefore one of the most important parts of a custom figure, can be wholly attributed to the well-known Autorazr of Eurobricks and Reddit. He recently posted on a Eurobricks thread what I believe to be the first purist version of Red Son Superman on the entire Internet. It had very inaccurate legs, however, and he elected to use a classic yellow head to stay true to his ultra-purist code. So I just had to modify it according to my rules to better fit the source material. 

I happened across the inspiration for this figure by accident; over winter break, I logged on to my defunct Eurobricks account out of sheer boredom just to see if there was any significant superhero customizing community present on that site. To my surprise, I discovered a gigantic thread dedicated to purist superhero customizing dating all the way back to 2012; I even found some of you guys on there! Now that I think about it, I think Autorazr's huge Imgur posts on the /r/Lego subreddit provided a lot of the initial kick for me to begin customizing myself. So hats off to Autorazr, wherever he may be on Flickr. This fig belongs to you!

I am rushing my new content because I'm just too impatient. :)
