I feel like you've been reading my mind on some of these and making them happen way faster than I will be able to! I had in mind to create Clutch, Grunt, Rock-N-Roll, Stalker, Rip-Cord, Dusty and Muskrat, all using MTF parts, too. You've come up with some great stuff!!!

Thanks!
I can't take credit for all of it... I think the Marauders Guys had a lot of these Joes in mind when they made the parts... I just put them together... haha |

Muskrat is:
Torso, arms, head= Virtuvian Hacks Blank Waist, legs, gear= Maruaders Task Force Machete is Hasbro The hardest part is to attach the upper and lower bodies... they aren't designed to connect. I removed the ball peg in the MTF waist, and dremeled a slight depression into the plastic. Then I unscrewed the Hacks waist, and snipped the circular connector a little more than half-way off. I used Gorilla Glue 2 part Epoxy (you want a STRONG bond)to glue the snipped Hacks to the dremeled Marauder waist. TEST FIT WITH ALL PARTS before you glue! Some folks glue the bottom of the flesh torso piece to the waist, but I wanted it to have movement. The other tough part is painting the blank's face (unless you are using a pre-painted head). This was my first time painting eyes, and I think I did okay. Just use the smallest brush you can find (I got mine at a shop that sells supplies fro painting gaming miniatures). Good Luck! And post pics when you're done! Last edited by MightyMegs; 03-16-2017 at 10:26 AM.. |

Thanks Megs, I assumed that's how you attached the two parts, another customized and myself have done it before. As for your apps on the face,.....outstanding work brother! I know guys who have been customizing for years and still can't paint a face as well as you did, well done man!!!
