Hey all
This is my take on a modern sgt slaughter inspired heavily by wry's awesome real world stuff. i had so much fun adding the detail to this guy I also love the idw storys and really like the idea of a more real world looking joe but still trying to keep the subtle things that make them the campy fun characters they are meant to be. not really a fan of the sarge as a character never was in too wrestling when i was younger but i do respect the fact he does play a big role in the joeverse for a lot of people. he has been a hole in my collection for a while now. i own the sdcc usa one but i was never gonna open him so when i saw i could get a sarge head for 5usd from tofujesse and already had a crappy retaliation roadblock the work begun. i was torn between the traditonal look in woodland camo or try something iv not seen before a nasty ass desert veteran. retaliation roadblock-whole body n legs tofujesse-sgt slaughter head roc para viper-goggles renegades tunnel rat-scarf and multi tool marauder gunrunners-grenades all extra gear is from bravo team elite figures or sculpted /salvaged from other random non joe figures. thanks for looking and i hope you like him. comments always appreciated Last edited by punchitchewy80; 07-29-2012 at 03:08 PM.. |

That looks awesome man. What is the white material you used to strap some of the equipment to him?

thanks everyone. the material i used to make the grenade straps is canvas from a little a5 framed blank canvas its very cheap n thin but can be bent and look natural unlike card and doesnt fray like material does. also the cavas has a flat side and a more fabric looking back the bandage on his arm is the canvas just flipped the other way. hope that makes sense. im still experimenting with various things, always learning with every figure.

No disrespect to those in service, but if they sent this Sgt. Slaughter to Afghanistan, the war would be over.
Nice work! |
