Tattoos and cigarettes.

Smoke up, Monkey!

Oh. My. God. :eek

The things I have missed. This makes my Jump look like a poorly recasted garage kit. I love all the details like the actual cusions on the seat. The engine underneath (not seen in these shots) looks great as well!

Anybody can glue a buncha ____ together and paint it up, but to actually kitbash something and make it look like the source material THEREIN lies the true talent. Were I not already immpressed before I certainly am now. The BAT blew everyone away, and Nemesis Enforcer was even beyond words for some people but damn this is hot!

Cool stuff. Would like to see more pics of Zartan posed on that thing.


I think I would display him on it.

I agree! Ski, where you at? I'd really like to hear the specs on this. Just by looking at it its gotta be almost a foot in 1/6.

All that and his Zartan can't even ride it.

I've been bugging him for months, literally, to got TTA or at least Dutch for Zartan, but the stubborn prick's stuck on the Krauser bod.

Re: Ski's GI JOE Customs etc...

I was really scared that no one would like it... I made it kind of modern and I must say that it took most of my time out of customizing any figs... it was brutal

Another update shot of the final piece... in case no one ventures back far enough into the thread I know I posted a lot of pics from start to finish.

and a shot of my non finished Zartan covering up because he's cold on top and ready to ride!!!!

Found more goodness. The foot pedals are a great touch!!

Thank you fellas, here's the final pics from the completed project, man I remember this and it took me forever to get this right but it's solid from all the metal and has a pretty decent weight behind it once I was finished.

MANDO you are correct in it's size, it's about a 1ft +plus or and some change.

Parts used : (RJ45 and RJ11 coupler on the back of that Skier, network card, modem card, attennas, metal rods from cat litter handles - extremely VERY hard to bend to shape, I think I broke my hand , steel rods from PC junk bin, hard drive rubber coverings, charter DSL coverings)

Thank you fellas, looking back at that thing I'm glad to be finsihed with it

Ski doesn't have a middle gear.... He works out, goes to work, spends time with his wife and their cats, buys statues and customizes figures.... No sleep... Just an f'n machine!

I want to keep this pace up, hopefully there's no disappointment, especially with Slaughter right around the corner in Oct.
