Entire Figure: 1986 Hawk


Ah, back to basics. I've been so obsessed with detail painting lately, I've forgotten about my custom joe roots. This figure is totally, 100% posable and playable. When I first started customizing Joes about 15 years ago, the biggest obstacle to overcome was to figure out how to make the figures I wanted without sacraficing articulation. Took some time, but I finally figured it out.

I did opt to go with detailing his leather jacket though, I wanted it to look 'leathery' and have some wear on it, which I believe I've acheived. Helmet is removable. I screwed up the backpack and threw it over the fence in disgust. Heh.
