topside by dr robzola
arms and torso = G.I. JOE PIT TROOPER (v1) https://www.yojoe.com/action/09/pittrooper.shtml legs, feet, hands and shotgun = fodder bin head = 25th rock and roll helmet = bbi i think life vest = cast, custom sculpted holsters = casts from roc tunnel rat had a lot of fun making this custom, got to improve my sills using magnets. two magnets in the life vest and in both holsters. might change out the sling with an aged looking leather one. my goal with making customs is to complete my 25th collection with figures that a based off the original figure card art.

I think that RnR head looks a little small compared to the body but your painting skills and wash is superb. Have you considered a head cast or maybe the modern Ozone head painted blonde? I do love that RnR head, just wish it was bigger because I wanted to use it for a custom too. Keep bringing the customs!

Great paint work. The whole team looks good. Do you mean that you attached the holster to the life vest with magnets?

Nice!
I have a Topside in the works myself. I hope it looks as good as yours.

Nice work on this one. The Joes never had enough non Army guys, and Topside was invaluable as a WHALE crewman!
