Here’s my list, pics to follow soon.

Metal head DONE
Crosshairs DONE
Outback DONE
Tunnel rat DONE
Falcon
Roadblock DONE
Mercer DONE
Flint DONE
Bullhorn DONE
Recoil DONE
Recondo DONE
Eagle Eye Night Force DONE
Sneak Peek
Jinx DONE
Fast Draw
Arena of Sport fighter
Lightfoot DONE
Lady Jaye
Mutt



Most pieced together and started years back. Some are just repainting an old custom due to technique at the time or that damn Tamiya paint turning glossy 5 years later, or just using updated parts. Some are going to be me finally putting to use a bucket full of MTF bodies and parts (years after buying them).

Some are so close to done it’s stupid they aren’t. But now is the time!

Here’s where I’m at with Roadblock. 80% done. I wanted to brighten up the vest and make the legs aand Lighten up the grey in the legs. He’s almost done, I just need to tighten up a lot of the paint and dullcoat the legs. I’m ditching the elbow pad as well. I’m not sure when it even went On there. The original version is in the archives.

Metal head needs a couple paint apps tightened up. I have the raginspoon gear set aside for him as well. I was greatly disappointed with the convention version, and that’s how long ago this was started.

Two more in the list. Tunnel Rat and Outback.

Tunnel Rat is about done. Light paint touch ups. I don’t have a darker grey on hand right now so I was sticking with the lighter grey, but might try som mixing to see if I can match it better.

Outback is a repaint of my original from years ago. The paint turned glossy and it was a very dark green. I am going to paint the hair a little lighter, and the bandana. I’m very pleased with the green and how it turned out, and got very lucky with the prep on the joints and having had anything chip off. I have to tackle the gear next and bring it in line with the colors To match vintage.

Today I was able to finish off the tunnel rat.

Also, I repainted my Recoil. The Tamiya paint had turned very glossy. Also realized he was never submitted to the gallery, so I don’t hav anything to compare him against.

And after looking at the gallery, I noticed I haven’t submitted a lot of stuff in the last couple of years. That should give me another thing to work on.

Unfortunately I have yet to figure out why some pictures flip sideways and some don’t. I hope I find a solution soon, it’s very frustrating.

I'm digging all of these, but loving Roadblock the most. Glad to see an update to one of my favorites in Recoil. Only critique and its a personal one. I used to love the bright green goggles on an otherwise earth-toned figure and I really liked the weird double pistol-machine gun/shotgun thing in baby blue.

Today’s LBC, a cobra trooper. Perhaps a underwater naval base security guard of some sort.

Finished Outback. I don’t usually weather customs as I go for a factory look, but I’m starting to enjoy it for some.

Today’s figure is Flint. A mash up of vintage and modern style.

This is all really good stuff.

Your character updates look like they would mesh pretty seamlessly with the design aesthetics of the new 6-inch line (but at a much cooler scale).

Today’s finished figure is Mercer. He’s been 99.9% done in a WIP pile for 3 years. I only needed to touch up the grey on his pants and give him weapons. Sometimes I’m just too lazy for my own good.
