Turned my original character "Avalanche", who was just Arctic Duke with black hair & goatee, into:
Lifeline!! Also, I noticed while painting his legs that the boot tops have little crosses sculpted onto them!! Fitting, I think... I took a page from everyone else, and upgraded my Major Bludd: "Auuuggghhh!! My arm!!" I think the Stone arm looks soooo much better than the CBD one I had on there... |

I'd had an accessory-less "Yakuza" Storm Shadow for awhile, now (thanks, Razerwire!), knowing I wanted to turn it into a different character, but could never think of who. When, one day, while perusing JMM's Joecyclopedia, I saw this pic of Depth Charge:
So, a little paint thinner & a head/hand swap later: A super-lazy "custom"!! Also, since I beheaded Deep Six for Mainframe, he needed a new one. I ran across this pic of the character: ...and thought Lockdown looked more like him than Long Range, and since the only place an LD head was being used in my collection was Wild Bill (CobraFly's head is on one LD body as Shockwave, and Gung Ho's head is on the other for a WIP Mutt), I'm gonna use my spare for DS! ^_^ |

Finally...finally...finished my first Viper:
I say "first", because I have another Sigma Strike Duke that I plan to do the same thing to. Yippee. ^_^" Now, having completely forgotten the entire Joe history from my childhood, and the first volume of Marvel not setting in stone too much, it leaves me a little more freedom to do my own thing for my Joeverse. Like turn Mindbender into a Dr. Jekyll-like character, who turns into a gorilla-man. ~_^ So, not sure of how the original Vipers were, mine are battle-hardened soldiers. They've been through it all, and haven't lost very many along the way. And, I wanted to show that in the face of my first Viper: In case you can't see, his right earlobe is gone, and the top of his left ear has joined it. Also, there's another scar along his left jawline that's hard to see in this pic. I probably should've taken angle shots. Oh, well. Second guy will use a different head than Duke, despite how versatile that head can be. If I can get a third SSD, I hope to make their commander: Mercer... ^_^ Last edited by TENIME_art; 07-23-2008 at 10:22 AM.. |

Thanks!
Bludd has since gotten about 6 dogtags draped around his neck, as well... If I can ever get a lightbox together, I'm hoping to take some gallery shots, like Razerwire... |

Thanks to a Superman Returns doll, Zartan now has a cape, in addition to Crime Boss Destro's pants:
If I can find my mom's stitch-ripper, I'll get rid of the blue. I'm liking it the more I see it, though... |
