such a great figure, alone worth the $25 easily. i really debated touching him with a paint brush at all, but in the end just had to.
aside from the head, which is from a storm shadow (no idea which one) it's all very, very, minor stuff- i wanted some more dark gray to break up the lighter gray mostly. hit his shotgun shells on his gun with gray thinking the device on his leg could be like another clip of shells that fit onto the gun, but i dunno, that thing could be anything, i suppose. i nearly had a stroke painting the buckles and grenade tops on his harness, i really didn't want to have to correct any mistakes. hit a little dullcote on the shinier parts (upper legs and arms). again, though, stock straight out of the box this figure is truly a marvel of modern toy making.

Alot better. I am one of the few that does not really like the heads this firefly and the new ultimate storm shadow come with.

Very nice work!!! You should put the 25th Wave 1 back pack with your special brand of paint aps, and this would be a 10+!!!

Looks sharp, odinson! A couple comments/questions:
So is that camo pattern on his mask "out of the box"? I thought his mask was plain gray. EDIT: Nevermind - I misread the first line of your post. Those open seams on his upper thighs are a bit of an eyesore. Not that it's your fault, though |

Great work, He turned out very nice. I love this figure as well, It's about time we got a masterpiece of firefly. This is my favorite figure so far out of retaliation and I couldn't agree more, this guy is worth the money, not to mention, you get a bad ass shock trooper.
