Chris Redfield; the third installment in bringing Resident Evil characters into the Joe format. I tossed around about 6 different heads until I found the right one. The BTR Duke head was dead-on; spiked-hair, slender face. I tried a new technique for bringing out accents in the clothing: paint a darker shade of a color (in this case green) and then drybrush a lighter shade. The technique came out better in person than in photo. I'm still not happy with the flesh tone. Too many brush lines. If anyone can suggest a good, smooth fleshtone, I'd appreciate it.

About Chris:
Chris was a member of S.T.A.R.S., kind of a S.W.A.T. and Paramedic team mixed. He as well as my previous custom, Jill Valentine, survived the horror of Spencer Mansion. This custom is based on the Code Veronica version where Chris has been suspended from S.T.A.R.S. and has ventured overseas to bring down the Umbrella Corporation at its Home Office.
