This is a limited-production resin model of the Silver Age Barry Allen Flash, #10 of just 25 produced by Nut-Hut Productions. It's a very nice kit, dynamic pose, well sculpted and molded.

The Flash is connected to the base by one big toe, more or less. I used three separate pins at this connecting point, one coming up from the bottom and two coming sideways through the rock. It holds him fairly solid, all things considered.

Color-wise, I went with the traditional Silver Age red and yellow colors. There was a temptation to use gold for the yellow parts, which is kind of Alex Ross revisionist. But I resisted the temptation, instead opting for a glossy yellow for a slightly different effect. I painted the rock base a dark bluish gray, with a lighter gray wash. I like the look.

Overall, I like this kit a lot. It rivals the classic Horizon kit for pose and build; it's a little smaller scale, and thus lighter and more stable on the big toe connection.
