Managed to knock out a few more 30th updates this weekend. This time it was a simple repaint of the 30th/POC Stalker. Stalker was a good figure who suffered from a crappy paint job in my opinion. I gave him a repaint to more closely resemble his original camo scheme. The dark green is a little too close to the lighter green, but I like how he turned out. I was tempted to give him the 25th Stalker head, as I'm not a fan of the one he comes with, but for now I kept it. Let me know what you think of him.
Parts: Everything 30th/POC Stalker with machete sheath removed from the webgear. |

Looks good. You did a great job recreating the classic color scheme. What paints did you use?
One thing that's always bugged me about the 30th/PoC Stalker (besides the dreads) is that the webgear's STANAG magazines don't match the one on his "M-32 Pulverizer" submachine gun. Granted, it's easy enough to swap out his weapon or his webgear (and the same can be said for the head), it just feels like a sloppy oversight on Hasbro's part when they could have easily thrown in an extra M4 or M16 assault rifle with the figure so that it would make more design sense. |

Looks real good. Do the head swap, I did and the figure looks better with the 25th head.

Thanks for the comments everyone. As for the paints, they are all Tamiya acrylic, but as for color, that's a little difficult. Both greens are mixes. I believe the lighter green is a mix of Yellow/Green and Olive Green. As for the darker one...I think it's Olive Drab and Dark Yellow, but I'm not 100% sure. Sorry I could't be more specific.
