Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

I was reorganzing the basement today (well, still am) and find the Hasbro BAT Seb used for the original head. Now I'm tempted to try something with it. Seb is a horrible influence!

Coming from the individual who forced me to buy an ROC Destro? I'd say that means .

Well, yes and no. I did, but not for long:

Alright, for better or worse he'll do as a stand-in until we get Sideshow's. Still stumped about the gemstone though. :

Yes, but I felt so... dirty picking him up.

Damn '76. Cannot get over how simply amazing you're customs are. Simply brilliant! Any WIP to speak of? How's about a Low-light?

at the possibilities!

the boots from the HT Wolverine look like they might work well for Tunnel Rat if you haven't given him boots yet.

Aren't they a bit short for Cowboy boots? They look like party boots.

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

They aren't "cowboy" boots per se. They are kinda like short motorcycle boots I guess. They do have a fairly pointy toe and are atleast without laces. I think they are a good compromise for a modern or "real" version of the character without having to get what might look like authentic cowboy boots which might be over the top to some.

Street Clubber Lang came with some decent cowboy boots.

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

triad toys has some really nice looking cowboy boots and they'd even be the right color for tunnel rat.

FInally got the head for Tunnel Rat and was able to finish him at last.
Just need to swap the boots.
But pretty happy with the result.
I added the goggles becasue i felt it would look cool on him.

and first look at WILD BILL

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

As usual, they both rock!

I never understood why they gave Tunnel Rat an MG34 w/a bigassed night vision scope when he's supposed to be climing through small openings.

TR lookd great. Like Wild Bill so far. I don't think SS will make him, so he is on my list for customs.

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Tunnel Rat was always my favorite Joe and you absolutely nutted him bro! Exactly like he was meant to be!

 

[Skiman]

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Very nice Seb, again superb. Tunnel Rat looks small quick and nimble like he should and the Wild Bill is perfect and looks great.

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Tunnel Rat looks awesome. I do have an idea that I think would make him look cool. It seems that he is really weathered, but his face is clean minus the paint. If you were to weather his face up some, but leave the circles where his goggles would have been on his face clean, IMO that would look killer. Just an idea, I think he is outstanding as is.
