Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Zartan is awesome! Great interpretation of the character.

And you Joe picture is sweet... whats cool is your version of the characters actually look like they would kick you ass. These guys look hardened and tough as nails.

Wow, the Joes look fantastic. I'm partial to the Wild Bill figure. Where can I see a better shot of him?

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Zartan is absolutely fantastic!

Snow Job is very nice as well!

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

That Zartan is incredible, Seb!!! You just keep getting better each time!!

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Awesome work on Snowjob and the 2nd Zartan (better then the first IMO)! It amazes me that everytime I think you might be slowing down with the Joe customs you pound out 2 or 3 more... Great work, as always!

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

I will quit trying to find compliments for your figures, elvis. Any more...I feel that words are week.

I will say that I think this version of Zartan is my favorite of any 1:6 G.I. Joe figure...anywhere.

It takes MASSIVE cajones to willingly and intentionally cut up ANY of the Aliens Marines and Predators to use them for customs. Those things are expensive!

Major Bludd is coming along nicely.
DYE THE OUTFIT IN DARK BROWN.
Armor is a WWII german sniper armor (thanks king) modified for a better fit.

Bludd looks like one tough mofo

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Bludd looks good Seb, what uni did you use I'm trying to find a blank standard uni to dye dark brown as well. Seems like they don't have Rit in regular brown anywhere though... I had to purchase dark brown as well.

Yea my hobby lobby has the dark brown, I think I went through this site the other day and didn't notice a reg brown for rite. I have the dark brown that I recently purchased from HL.

Awesome Seb, thank you very much, if I can't find something I'll try to find something similar. I had some BDU's that I dye dark brown but I think I'll use them for something else.

That would be the same as the cocoa color Rit has.

Kewl, I think I saw that one, I'll have to pick it up as well. Dyes are building up over at the Ski's home

There's a moca or coca labeled one, but this one is labeled "Dark Brown".

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

That looks great Seb! Much better armor than the bullet proof vest I used that is for sure!

I used coco brown Rit dye for mine by the way.

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Here's some more of Bludd.
Decided to add him a scarf for a classy look and more major look.
Futzzed the armor a bit more and put him some leather did boots and gaiter

Now work on the armor arm

Re: My Take on some Gi-joe and Cobra

Great take on the Major, Seb! Love the scarf and I can't wait to see how the arm turns out... Are you building a rocket pistol?
