o.k. this was put up after getting home from work one night.. I misspelled "Dial" and his webgear was put on backwards for the pics.. so instead of editing.. figured I will just post a thread with several of my customs before they get boxed away. LOL
I've seen a few customs of this figure around, each sticking to the original design.. I wanted to keep the over all look with mine, but get rid of that aqua color on his shirt, knee pads and boots... So here is my modern military version.. Sorry for the last pic.. flash wasn't on. but you can still see it. LOL Also his webgear has been flipped.. so I will be replacing these pics later.

Great custom pal. I like the parts mix you used for it.
Now talking about your disliking of aqua color on DT's uniform it's funny that you used it on the bootts.

Well the lower legs are Gung ho's.. instead of painting the boots a different color, I figured I would leave them that grey blue color they were. I originally was going with the typical GS lower legs, but the feet looked too small. LOL
after looking at it in the pics.. it does look a little off. Didn't notice it as much in person.

Yar, hes teh one that gave me the idea to use it! cept his is painted bette rthan mine! LOL
Seems peeps have a mixed result from using flints vs. stalkers head. Both work well just depend son your skill and patience level wiht painting mustcaes or skin pigments.... Its also "teal" colored not aqua green! Dial Tone would gasp if he went Ecco-warrior on us! |

Yes, the head is stalker, just painted. The Flint head just doesn't look right to me.. not Italian enough. LOL
Teal...aqua.. it's all too bright for me. LOL I don't like how his boots look brighter than they are here in the pics. they are just the regular Gung ho boots. May swap them out if i can get ahold of another CC/Gung Ho cp and use those lower legs instead. For now.. this is it.. I have switched his web gear over to the other side.. haven't had time to take pics just yet, but will try and do that sometime today.

o.k. so i noticed that there have been a lot of Dial tone customs popping up with his traditional colors.. so I may take a step to add a vest in the right color as well as paint his boots and knee pads.
Also noticed a lot of people opting to use the flint head. It just didn't look like the italian we know and love, thus why i chose to go with the Stalker head instead. I still need to throw the new pics with the corrected webgear on here. will try that this weekend.
