I'm not a big fan of Dreadnoks.
Most of them look ridiculous, and instead of a band of though bikers, they look like a band of gay heavy metal LOL Trasher is the worst of them, with that stupid face and theeth. And your custom looks really bad ass. Though i always thought that Trasher was oriental (the face it has in the movie is offensive), this Bruce Campbell-like head makes it look mean. Painting really sharp and clean, and the whole build looks factory-made. Congrats on another win! As i've posted somewhere else, if you have the dvd skeleton, yould use their shoulderpads. They look very much like Zartan's, tho a bit smaller (maybe great for Zaranna). And the unmasked SS from the movie may be a great choice for a head. ;) Quote:
I have to ask a friend to take pics, cos mine suck. On the pics, my customs look grainy and rough, while in truth i do a very minute and detailed work...sigh |

The silly thing I realized about the Noks, is that 7/8 of the ones I consider my essential gang, they all bear their midriffs. Thrasher's the only one with a proper shirt on, perhaps it took schooling to teach him to cover up his navel. In my Joe world, the Noks aren't a bunch of incompetents. Sure, they're not book smart, but they're not bumbling stooges in biker gear either. They're just mean sonsabitches. |

I'm not bumping this fucker, I'm posting an update:
I hated the green, so after I mixed a batch of new lighter camo green for Sarge, I painted Thrasher with it. I'm way more satisfied, and I threw in some flat to tone that silky sucker down some. Now he's not so shiny. |

Update:
I got the SDS head painted up and slapped onto this Thrasher, but I plan on redoing the entire figure (with the new head on that one, obviously) down the road... But for now: I was hoping that the 7-packs would be posted today, but since they aren't and I've got no confirmation on whether we're getting any Dreadnoks, I figured I'd push onward with my remaining Dreadnoks and revising previous ones (except Zarana now! Woohoo!). More to come... |
