Hello fellow tankers! This is Warheart. Long time lurker and long time Joe fan! (Since Birth!)
After reading many tutorials and checking amazing customs I decided to give it a shot and mess around a bit. Last couple of days I would go to a friends house and paint some Joes. (He paints Joes too). So this is a result of a couple of get togethers. Hope ya'll enjoy and any feedback is greatly appreciated. First up is my very first one: Zartan I always dug the POC version. I just felt it needed a bit more dark colors to it. I had this figure sitting in a small box with paints and one of my white paint bottles broke and pretty much covered most of the figure and his accessories white. Tried my best to make it match the proto/card art. I really fell in love with my version better. Original Left , Mine Right. Next up one of my favorite Joes, Beachhead! After 8 Steel Brigade figure, I figured why not make a leader or something and after I kept looking at one, I thought "Man, this fucker would make a bad ass Beachhead!" and there is! I used a 30th S.B. Variant. I took the riffle that has a knife attached and cut it off and placed the knife on his knife holder. Took a random pistol and placed on his holster. Made good use of those empty slots. My buddy helped attach the chain around the heavy machine gun. Everything else is pretty self explanatory. Next up we got a Zombie Viper repaint. I just wanted to make a pretty gruesome looking one. The clear damaged helmet came from TofuJesse. Thanks again buddy! And lastly, a little something for fun. Had an extra Shock Trooper and just wanted to make it look like he went through hell and back and his still is! Poor bastard.. Well that's all folks! Hope ya'll enjoy my work! -Warheart |

Realy nice as for first time. Clean paint apps. That Zartan looks much better with darker sheme. But i like the Beachhead the most. Pretty cool part and colour choice, nice washes and i realy like the stand
ST - that one is realy messed up hehe he looks just like he is coming back from a battlefield from a lost battle. Keep it up and great job!! |

Very nice work! I'll bet you're hooked on customizing now, aren't you? I like them all, but I really like the BH.

I like all of them
my only critique is that you could pull back on the blood, your customs stand STRONG without it. |

Darker colors on Zartan looks good.
I always had Beachhead as the leader of my Steel Brigade too, and was wondering what a modern one would look like painted in his colors. As it turns out, pretty cool! |
