As the title says, this is my first custom. I had a VERY hard time finding any good reference pictures of Joe Colton, the only ones I had were the few in my G.I. Joe Vs. the Transformers. So I found a head that looked like him, and made the rest out of parts I thought looked cool.
No paint at all, a little drilling to the head to get it to fit right, and I scraped "Hawk" off the stand Head = Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi Body (chest, waist, arms, and legs) = Vehicle 2 pack Breaker Vest = Comic 2 pack Firefly Side arm = Comic 2 Pack Battle Damaged Snake Eyes Rifle = Comic 2 Pack Duke (the one with Red Star) Stand = GI Joe Hawk |

Not bad at all. I like, it looks simple enough as long as I can acquire the parts. If your looking for a decent reference pic try this site it's also got plenty of joe facts and stuff
G.I. Joe Comics Home Page: The Original G.I. Joe Either way like the custom. |

That's pretty cool. How'd you get the obi wan head to stay on without wobbling off?

Cool first custom. I like it. You can also use the hot glue method to mod heads to fit your customs.
