I'm back after spending a few months in Africa and found myself in a bit of a customizing funk. I talked to a buddy of mine who had just pulled himself out of a similar funk by going old school and returned to customizing ARAH GI Joe figures. With much success, I might add. He suggested I do the same.
So I did. I'm not only repainting some ARAH figures, but redoing some of the back stories for my little project, but more on that later. Here is the figure I have started with: Fast Draw. Last edited by Hawkeye; 01-21-2016 at 03:06 PM.. |

LOVE the helmet and the pack (although maybe a bit heavy with four missiles of that size). not a fan of the camo job or the eyes (he looks like a cyborg or unearthly), but the paint apps are nice and the overall figure is great. nice job, interesting take on this guy.

Aside from the eyes I think it is really cool, and an interesting somewhat more realistic look to him. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you might do in the old school customizing vein!

I Love ARAH customs. I like the addition of the two rockets, it never made much sense to me that he'd only have two rockets in battle. The muted colors are nice, and the camo looks pretty good.
I would have left the face and eyes unpainted.

Your painting skills are really good. The backpack mods are the best.
