I know what you guys are thinking, another Sgt. Slaughter, but after seeing G.I. Eddie's and everyone elses custom I had to make myself one. I decided to use the cartoon version of the sarge as my template.
I sculpted the hat out of tamiya putty and made the whistle out of 30 gauge wire and solder. The sunglasses are made out of styrene (I still need to use some 30 gauge wire to make the ear frames). The formula I used was abercromie pants and gap tank top. I kid
Here's my formula:
Roadblock
- upper torso
- upper legs
- arms
Duke
- lower legs
- gun holster
Gung Ho
- head
I wanted to use roadblocks long legs to give sarge a proper height. Dukes lower legs joints didn't fit properly so I had to use putty around the joints, drill and sanded them to fit properly. So now sarge has a good height over the joes and has the correct boots as well. I also filled in the left pocket hole with putty. This being my 1st 25th joe custom, it was a learning experience and one of the most fun time I had making something. I built mostly models cars and mechs, but I'll definetly be making more joe customs in the future.
