    Conrad 'Duke' Hauser

    For my other Joe redux customs, I've tried to make a character that I don't own...but with Duke, I have a couple figures of him already, but wanted something a bit more...hardened. So...why not make a more more kick ass Duke? My version is more of a military contractor style than flat out real...

    Roadblock

    Like the other Joe reduxes I've done this year, Roadblock is one of the figures that I never owned. The only other releases of him in the 25th line gave him a pea sized head, and a horrible...horrible body sculpt. Unlike some of my other figures, I didn't do a lot to actually make a new...

    Questions...

    Aside from the flashlight on the side, what are the other add ons on this?

    Couple of projects

    I've been working on and off (mostly off) on a few different projects. First is mostly looking for the unlimited possibilities in the Renegades Duke figure. I added a holster. Helmet was just to see how it would look. There's a lot of potential with this figure. I'm glad...

    Mad Max

    This is, to this date, my favorite custom I've ever done. I competed against Duke on Banthaskull.com in a head to head custom competition....and kicked his ass. I will list the parts used after the pictures. Removable gear. Retained leg articulation. Parts list...

    Long Dusty Road

    Just kinda screwing around out side with the kids. Had to do some touch up to get some of the cars ad signs out of the background.

    Joe Reduxes

    Earlier this year, I started giving a lot of the main Joe characters make-overs. Some of them were needed as it didn't seem like they would be getting new figures any time in the near future. Instead of making multiple threads, I figured I'd just post them all in one. I have a lot of text for...

    Ball caps

    So, I'm a recovering Star Wars collector. I still buy the figures from time to time. One I've had my eye on since it was shown at Toyfair was the Rebel Fleet Trooper for one accessory. His ball cap. I snagged one of the RFTs today and the first thing out of the package was the hat. I've...

    XMO: Wolverine Wade Wilson

    This is obviously before paint. The Green Lantern Ryan Reynolds head works quite well for this. Decent sculpt. That's about all I have for that line. Got the idea from this picture.

    A routine patrol

    ...is hardly ever routine. (I tried some editing on this picture...I don't think it worked too well)

    The Muunilinst 10

    (minus one) I wanted to put this group together for a long, long time now. I finished the group earlier this year, but was waiting on the dio from Medd. All I have to say is... FINALLY. (ok, not 'finally' more like 'it was WELL worth the wait)

    Cable and Apocalypse

    I have nothing but good words for these two...so I won't be giving a real review of them. Feel free to ask questions though. Kellen wanted me to take a picture that looked like he was running.

    Frank Castle

    It occurred to me today that I don't own one Punisher figure. I decided to change that tonight. He has a few more things I need to do, so I'm putting him down as a WIP for now. Skull was about 90% freehand. I used some masking tape to help with the eyes and teeth.

    Wave 6 Reviews

    No (new) pictures for now. I was too lazy last night to get my gear out. Crazy Legs- In hand, he's not that bad of a figure. Sure, I could think of a dozen other sets of legs he could have had, but I'll do that on my own now. I'm in the minority when it comes to the alternate Zartan head...

    Cobra Viper

    POC-ish I like what's coming from Hasbro...but it's just a repainted Shock Trooper. I want something that's grittier, meaner and just pain better. The Wave 3 Duke armor never really screamed GI Joe to me. It has a much more Cobra feel to it. Hell, it looks like a snake head with fangs...

    SlayerCon 2011

    I don't know how many of you guys are fans of, or buy parts from Slayer Design, but they're going to be having a convention of sorts this coming August. The info they have for now is here, with more to be added as it comes up. I may be going, and would like to meet as many in the community...

    91st Recon TSC (Star Wars)

    Tactical Scouts Clones (TSC) are used to track and report on the movement of the CIS droid army. Trained along side ARF troopers, the TSC usually work alone but have been known to work in two man teams. They have tracked and terminated many CIS generals, and have eliminated numerous droid...

    Range Viper

    The Range Viper is the big badass of the Cobra ranks. Too bad his action figure counter parts are pussies. Look at this thing. Yellow and bright blue. Does Hasbro know that this guy is supposed to be a survivalist? He won't survive very long if he stands out like Duke at a strip club...

    USMC Scout Sniper

    Like all of my more recent customs, he still needs some paint.

    Packs and Gear

    So, aside from buying the Bravo Team and BBI figures to cannibalize, where else on this earth can we find a supply for packs and the such? I've gotten some casts from Urbanrev, and they're nice. The sets from Slayer Design are also very nice, but I was thinking something that might be more...
