I want YOU for the Steel Brigade!

[the angry orc]

Do something 'new.' It will probably fit better with Sideshow's Joes. I too was going the original route, but after Nam pointed out these are supposed to be of 'us' I realized I'd rather go with a more modern look. But I think King and Evil have proved the classic design can look great and still fit in with the Sideshow Joes.

Just do what you would do if you were in the Steel Brigade.

everyone's that i have seen so far looks amazing for sure. the pics have been great.

Or would taking our pics in front of a solid-colored backdrop, white for example, be better? Might be easier to photoshop the background more consistantly for them. But I'm game for whatever we decide. I just want my VP parts to get here now

Nah, go with the box tray. Reason being it'll add consistency and everybody's SB will be relative to the size of the box, further distinguishing them. Plus, it'll be easier on 1kmasks. He won't have hella photoshopping to do, just align, trim and insert.

gah, i've got too many parts. can't decide how i want him to look. i want to do an original version but i also want to do something 'new'.

Steel Brigade is all about you. It was Hasbro's way of incorporating kids into the Joe line. The difference now is we have the ability to make them truly unique and not carbon copies of each other. Use your favorite parts and combine them until you're happy. That's what this is all about.

Just get it done by Monday with a pic of it in a G.I. Joe box tray!

I took a few pics in the box backer, but the lighting is a beeoch

Anyway, photochopped for a few minutes and came up with this.

May make a filecard later

i'm just waiting on my pm from mando to tell me it's ready and for me to pay.

EF...i like it, man!

Eight months ago I never could have imaged the response toward this project would've been so great! Cheers, Bros!

^^^^ This.

Also Hasbro made 5 different variations to the v1 figure, so there's mucho leeway to start with. Not to mention creative liscense. No one can tell you you're wrong here it's your figure!

Orc's has yet to be deployed.

The sheen on the visor alone more than makes up for whatever lighting inconsistencies you may have had! Both images are great!

May make a filecard later

That would be awesome!

 

[King Darkness]

Great work up! Its gonna look badass with the back ground consistancy!!!

Badass


And excellent pix everyone! 1K yours came out great. Love the shotgun strapped to his back, nice touch.


This has been the best custom project to be involved with.

I went another route for mine and decided to be a bit creative because it's supposed to be you so here he is.

What're you talking about?! The SB is the ____ing exclusive!

 

[snakeeyes171]

meaning sideshow exclusive on the photo shop pic that gold seal that lets you know that you got the premium figure

 

[snakeeyes171]

you all being elite and all. I would imagine that would be the first thing in the photo.

 

[thenammagazine]

you all being elite and all. I would imagine that would be the first thing in the photo.

In this case, the headsculpt, itself is the exclusive since only a limited number were run. Be even more exclusive when the second run hits. Make sure you're on that list! I believe EVILFACE would call you a hangaround, ATM. Stick around for a bit and you might become a prospect.

 

[the angry orc]

elvis...holy frak that kicks all kinds of ass. amazing work.

 

[MANDO]

That does look excellent, Seb! Great weathering and the Flag is great touch!
