This is mostly just a repaint of Renegades Tunnel Rat, with the forearms swapped for POC Duke's and a new backpack added. I thought the figure could fit with the rest of the 30th, but the cartoon colors paint job didn't match with them. I wanted to keep some of the colors vaguely similar to the original, although I opted against the black pants and the made green on his shirt less bright.

Nicely painted! I'm not sure how I feel about the head, as it looks a bit cartoonish, but that isn't your fault... That paint on the figure is though, and I like it!

It is a little exaggerated, but of the other TR heads I have, this one fits with the rest of the figure the best.

What about face paint? I thought you would have kept the camo on from the poc duke assuming it was the jungle duke you used? Great painting though! Always impressed with your work.

I couldn't make up my mind about the face paint, so I haven't added any yet. The arms I used are actually from the other POC Duke--with the rocket launcher backpack--so there wasn't any camo paint on them.

Caeraurus, as usual and as to be expected, I love it. I always love seeing your work come up. How come you decided not to go with the black--or even navy blue--slacks/coveralls? Would have been a nice addition to trying to give this the classic look. I wonder how it would have turned out? Heh, I might just have to track down one of these figures myself, now!

Looks great! I have every intention of doing a 30th style TR using the Renegades base and you've given me a great place to start and to see what I may want to add/change when I get to mine.
