Thanks much! For Muskrat, I used a Citadel orange (Dragonslayer Orange, I think) and painted the shoulder “straps” and a small section of the front of the Armor vest. The large and small armor panels, pistol holsters and knife are, of course, straight-up Hazard-Ops orange from MTF.
For that weird little “techno-add-on” in the middle-front of the vest...that’s actually an MTF motion tracker with the handle hacked off, painted orange, and super-glued onto the vest. What you see is the back of the motion tracker. The arm guards are from Avacslab. I gave the armored boots and knee pads a couple coats of a Testor’s “Wood” color Is that the factory blue vest color or is that painted too? It looks like a different shade than the ones I have.

All the blue is the factory Security-Ops blue. No painting or anything. I just saturated the color filter on my camera and turned up brightness setting quite a bit.

Ah, yes that makes sense. I’m searching my parts bin now to create one of these guys.
Side note, I know you are into Marauders so did you see the Marauder Mayhem pass that is being sold on the Marauder site for JoeFest?

Interesting. Though he looks a bit like he's trying to be Duke Nukem in the card art...uh, because his name is Duke? LOL

Dangit! Got there too late...says “Out of Stock” on the Mayhem pass. Really wish I could’ve gotten in on that. Well, if you guys see someone pacing back and forth outside the hall doors like a wild animal trying to get a peek every time someone comes in or out of the event...that’ll be me.

I have always wanted to do that Iceberg, he is/was on my potential "to do list" but would require painting as you have done so he remains MIA lol. I may jump on that Replicator Duke recipe though! I have a couple more Duke's I plan on recreating. You actually got the '86 style vest to fit over the Contract -Ops body? As I have avoided doing that because I can never get that combo to fasten on the sides (vest is to small for the body).

Actually, I can’t get the “86” to buckle either. Let’s just call it “creative camera angles” and a concealing pose.

Okay I finished stealing your Muskrat build and it looks great in my collection, haha.
I started trying to build a Marauder style Skidmark but wasn’t really impressed with what I came up with. Have you tried this one yet or do you have any ideas?
