This is my B-Squad. Hacks all using Marauder Heads. Marauder using a hack Skeleton Head. These are currently mo no-name troops and extras. Haven't decided who will be a hero and who would be villain specifically. They are still WIP because all of their looks are subject to change, boots still need to be painted for everyone but the marauder and the black-haired girl in blue jeans

Cool stuff! I don't typically care for extensive soft goods on figures of this size, but you do a very good job of it! I particularly like the getup on the lady with the pink hair, for some reason.

Thanks for the feedback. The cloth goods were a fun experiment I wanted to find a way to keep my figures modular for swapping characters out for extras when needed and the eBay lots I bought for these were pretty cheap. A lot of what I got didn't work too well but these ended up the best. And even though it isn't thematically correct I am a 90s kid so I love the bell bottom and Jnco look. do want a way to find a way to make the camo pants more wrinkly which is hard to do with the cloth types thickness and scale. I'm thinking of wetting them crinkling them up and putting them in some watered down glue and compressing them in a slightly vacuum sealed baggie, but that is an experiment for another day.

Maybe you can turn the article inside out, wrinkle it up a bit (folds and such) and then iron on a few NARROW strips of iron-on fabric patch on the inside where needed. I haven't tried it myself, but I think it should allow some more flex than glue would (I would think the glue idea would work, but leave the fabric either rigid or crunchy). My first concern about the iron-on patches is just that it might bulk the fabric up too much, but with as cheap as it is to buy the stuff it might be worth experimenting with it.
