My second attempt at a 25th custom. This one took my awhile. I gathered parts from various figures. My goal was to make a figure I loved as a kid that would likely never see an official release.
It took me about 4 hours to find the right combo to get the neck paint to match close to the face paint, that was probably the hardest part. I went with the airborne head becasue I always assumed Bullhorn was Hispanic or Native American. ( I think it was the thick black hair that made me think that)
I opted to not paint or sculpt the headband on because the gas mask was already a tight fit.
I also didn't want to carve up my originals' backpack, so I used a firefly backpack from the extreme conditions set. I had placed the sniper rifle from the original in this hand, but it looked out of place with the figure, so I left that out and just gave him some of the original's other weapons.
Parts used:
Head: Airborne
Harness: Cobra Officer
Grenades: Snake Eyes arms (version 3)
Torso and arms: Desert Conditions trooper
Legs: Resolute Duke
Backpack: desert Troop
