I posted this on FB. Just a quick shot of the variations of my sci-fi character Percy Ajax (as seen in Joe's Cantina). On the left is Ajax as a young man. On the right is the old man version. In the middle are versions set in the main story timeline. Most are also HACKS compatible

Image

A quick shot of the interchangeable parts in action

Image

And a quick shot of Ajax's modern world counterpart (Knighthawk) and his historical predecessors

Image

And since switching the grey armor for Ajax I gave a similar look to the armor d versions of some of his crew

Image

And a look at the stealth function of the suit in actionImage

JEEBUS :wow:


Edit: also - for the stealth suit - what are you using for the pads/etc? I'm detecting hot glue on the legs, but curious where you cut the other bits from.

Great stuff as always.

Thanks Chief. Yeah hot glue for the cloth above the boots and for the scarf. Just strips of plastic for the rest though found some unique pieces from produce containers that did a nice trick for thigh pads.

Forgot to add this pic of the deep space suit also. Been trying to add extra outfits for crew members too, to allow realistic scenes to be shot so that characters aren't just running around the Federal Reserve building in their flippers, if you know what I meanImage

These are all awesome. What is the featureless face for?

Thanks 2D and DD.

Dan - the featureless face is used to show that particular outfit as an unworn suit of armor in certain scenes. It was Ajax's armor when he was a Paladin for one of the Kingdoms in the story. Since "retiring" he sometimes keeps the armor on display.

unrelated - I didn't take pics, but another part of the HACKS swappable parts is that I also transplanted HACKS joints into most of the shoulders, so those can be switched around at will also.

when I saw you had posted, I'd have won a lot of money betting it was about the exhaust ports

I assued it was a mannequin type display, but didn't know if there was a shapeshifter running around in your story given the flesh tone.

That is a lot of awesome Ajax figures.
Nice to see them all together like this.

The old man version is my favorite, like he's from a fighting videogame.
The one in the middle gets bonus points for those cool goggles.
