[list][*]This is my take on Red Dog. I used a modified picture of Samoan-New Zealander boxer David Tua for his face.
I dig it, but can we get a red dog with a 49ers jersey!!! |

I can't recall if I still have the .PSD files for the image so updating it is going to be a longshot (it's been a couple of years, I think, since I last did new images)... but hey, thanks for looking and commenting!

Arise, old thread, arise!
Nothing really new from me, but I had a spare hour the other day so decided to take a picture of one of my Joe Trooper figures and mock-up what it would look like with a digital camo paint job among other color changes: There's no way I could actually do this with the actual figure though, as my RL painting skills leave much to be desired. |

I like everything about the figure except the helmet and cape.

Could change in the future, though. I don't really mind the design... the HALO/Master Chief visual overtones aside, the helmet/faceplate looks like it might've been inspired by one of the candidate designs for the US Army's aborted Future Soldier Program (the same ones that partially inspired some of the helmet designs in Ubisoft's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier), and I'm a sucker for the whole "10 minutes into the future"-style tech design. As for the cape... yeah, I'd much preferred a poncho style garment, but I don't know how well that would've meshed with the articulation. I just pretend that it's a high-tech IR-stealth ghillie suit if you will, meant to complement the digicamo battle uniform and used to additionally reduce/distort the wearer's near-infrared and thermal infrared signature when viewed with night-vision optics. |

Looks good though. I especially like the pants cuff just like the figure. I have been just using him as Master Chief in my verse as a Navy EOD.

Yeah, it's a good figure. I just ignore the cape and garish colors. He'd make a great modern Hit & Run with different lower legs, or even a poor man's Airtight. I've also thought of taking the unmasked head and putting it on the 3 pack Airborne to make a WW II paratrooper. BTW, good to have you back, Z. I've missed this thread!
