I just picked up a 30th IG - which is already disassembled & slated for a new custom - I REALLY like the simple head swap (well, shortenin' a neck & replacin' a ball joint isn't always simple...) & the grittier paint apps - cool lookin' concept!!!
I have a couple of Lanard vehicles (found them @ thrift stores for dirt cheap) - I am surprised w/ the amount of detail they put into these ficticious designs... I'd like to find some more... w/ the addition of some better detailed weaponry they make killer pieces...
Yea - a guy on HT already used this rig for a Nok technical - I had bought mine a while back & decided to allocate it to my Firefly/T.A.C. Viper team concept...
currently workin' on a storyline, figs, vehicles & dio... this will be an evolving large project... what have I gotten myself into...???
1st up is a vehicle that will be included in my Firefly/T.A.C. Viper unit... decided to make a "heavy" technical rig I also added a preview of my T.A.D. Viper (Tactical Assault Driver - just started paint on him)... Plans are to swap out the interior so the driver sets back about another 1/2...
So... picked up my 1st 30th fig the other day & if any of U guys R familiar w/ my work or my methods - I've said it many times B4... no figure is safe or sacred around me... I started kitbashin' as soon as I opened it & sat down @ my workbench - the concept for this guy is a group of specialized...
I was @ Target yesterday & picked up the VERY last PoC fig they had on the pegs (no lie) - PoC Duke, along w/ a Target exclusive Marvel Captain America vs. Crossbones comic 2-pk. Well I kept the pieces I wanted from both figs & kitbashed them 2gether w/ a vest, holster & packs from my fodder...
I dig it a lot!!! If I may make a small suggerstion - maybe better tire & wheels??? 3 rear tires & wheels from a 1:18th motocross bikes might be wide enough??? Otherwise I think it looks great!
THNX to all for the great comments - had some pics of him ridin' - but they were too blurry to use - will try to get some good pics of him seated on the ATV soon - gonna try some more vehicle customs - have been inspired by what I've seen by all of you guys here @ the 118th!!!
You can also get CO2 cannisters as an "air" supply & do away w/ noisy compressors & humidity isn't an issue... & it's not hard or pricey to find places to refill them...
