    Ahab - Cobra Naval Commander

    My second and personal favorite entry into the 4th quarter contest. I was sold on the peg leg! Ahab Real Name: Unknown Birthplace: The Sea(or so he says) Ahab is the only name that the Cobra Navy knows this man by. He carries himself in the fashion of the saltiest of old sea dogs. His...

    El Jefe

    SO this is the first of the 3 commission pieces that I am making, for Capt. Grid-Iron, to be finished. He requested El Jefe from the Marvel GI Joe comics. It took forever to find a good source image(I have all of the issues on my pc, and its a chore to find a specific image), but once I did it...

    Updated NF Shockwave

    A couple weeks ago TR1ER sent me a marauders assault rifle as a bonus for helping him out with an item he wanted. Around the same time I got another ROC Shockblast 2 pk, and thus the idea was born. I did the paint job to nod back to the original from 1989, I hope you dig it! Recipe: Head -...

    Reimagined PMC Falcon

    Falcon is a cool character but is also kind of a clone of Flint. I ran with that idea by using a Flint figure as the base. To allow it to stand apart, I sculpted a beard onto the figure head. This also allows for the relation to the cliche PMC look. I really hate the constant use of desert camo...

    Unmasked Beachhead ala 50th

    Made a few upgrades to my 50th Beachhead. Tweaked a few things, and found a use for one of my extra Lowlight noggins. Tell me what you think! I dig it, and I am pleased most by the paint job on the LL head cap. A mix of Testors Model Masters clear green, Dark Green, True Blue, replicates the...

    Upgraded Blowtorch

    So like many of use, Im stuck with a few extra Blowtorches. I decided to give one of them an upgrade! His teeny little flamethrower just wasnt cutting it for me, so I gave it the old Tim "The Tool-man" Taylor approach! So here it is Recipe: Legs: POC Snowjob Rest: 50th Blowtorch...

    Jungle Ops Steel Brigade

    Ive been tooling with different ideas for how to use this helmet I took from a new sculpt SB figure. Other than that it was a way to use the parts leftover from a Ret. Beachhead. I also used this figure as a way to experiment with my camo painting. Im pretty proud of it. Hope you dig! Lemme...

    Bazooka "Zook" from the Reloaded project

    This figure was my first entry into the GI Joe: RELOADED project that Icecream man is putting on(go check the entries out!). I had this figure pieced together for MONTHS prior to this, because he was going to be a regular Bazooka custom, but I just couldnt figure out what I wanted to do with the...

    ARAH Style Burt Reynolds from Smokey and the Bandit

    I left it on because I didn't have a suitable plain thigh, and didn't want to grind it down. To answer the other question, my friend I made this for has a 1:18 scale version of the car.

    ARAH Style Burt Reynolds from Smokey and the Bandit

    He dug it thoroughly. We sat in his living room the other night and played around with the hat. We got a decent curl put in it. Ill post a pic of it with the car later.

    ARAH Style Burt Reynolds from Smokey and the Bandit

    A buddy commissioned this for a stop motion tribute he is making to Smokey and the Bandit. So here he is, Burt Reynolds! For some reason the second picture is incredibly washed out. It makes the hair look way too brown. I do plan on dull coating the shirt and adding a tad more black to...

    Joe Colton - Joe Con style

    I appreciate it. This figure is just a couple coats of flesh tone away from being an LBC lol! I am happy that I got the skin tone levels that arent too red.

    Joe Colton - Joe Con style

    Thanks meds! He's one of those figures that were too easy to make to merit me purchasing it.
