Lets get this out of the way.
I totally ripped this idea from Letal...his custom can be seen here. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...rm-custom.html Now, being the stickler that I am for details.... I tried to put my own spin on things. Didn't really feel like painting and paint matching, so this slowly became a parts swap figure. I got the beret and the weapons from Marauders, decided to give the figure a 25th webgear from who knows where... and the backpack from Arctic Snake Eyes. Sandstorm sat this one out. Anyways... here is Dusty. recipe head/arms = 50th Dusty torso/legs/hands = 50th Spirit beret/weapons = Marauders backpack/webgear = 25th stuff.

Good work
The beret really makes that head look different. |

That is what the 50th Dusty should have looked like... Very nice!

At first I was going to match the beret with the color of the body, but noticed the darker brown one on Marauder's site. I think the brown really stands out and pops more.
Thank you for noticing.
