My second version of this character, this time my focus was really on having his head be able to have full range of motion at all times. To achieve this, I used a torso from renegades Duke, I added a matching knife, gave him an old slayer machete, and utilized the bow and arrow set from the MU Taskmaster. His tunic/belt is from a SW Quinlan Vos, neck wrap from a SS, and feet from a Serpentor. Lastly I sculpted over the hole in his left leg to match, trimmed his legs so that he could actually stand up straight (I hate it when figures can't straighten their legs) added a bow string with fishing line, modded the quiver to attach on the back of the belt, and added a clip for the machete. Hope you guys like this interpretation of him!

Great work. If I'm being honest I really liked your first version.

Looks good, and more primitive. I was disappointed with the range of head motion on the original too.

Looks excellent. Though maybe the mask could do with being darker or something... right now he is kinda looking like Jason Vorhees. Obviously that's good if it was what you were going for.
I think bronze or silver might look better.

I like both versions you've made, they are THE best reinventions of this character. I love the weapons and the paint apps, the whole thing is perfect.
One question, how did the use of a Duke torso fix the head articulation problem? If it caused the head to be raised, couldn't that have been done without changing the torso? Last edited by dropshipbob; 04-25-2012 at 12:43 PM.. |
