The Gyre-Viper tribute is top notch! Great custom in honor of someone I always heard was a great guy. Love the use of the new camo here and an excellent job of accessorizing as always.
The Marauder geared up guys are awesome! Always loved the Wesley Snipes Blade films, the tv show that I think was on Spike and his appearances in the 90’s Spider-Man cartoon. The looks of these figures definitely capture their original designs and look great in your Marauder universe! Love that we now have I think four custom versions of this previously little known Flint. Each one different from the last and bringing some new cool ideas to the table. Love the cross bandolier look and your wrapped forearms on a t-shirt torso idea. Works great for the character.

BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU GUYS for the kind words, I hope you will keep coming back as I have so much MORE planned! Quote:
Your Sightline homage is just fantastic and what a tribute to such a longtime joe contributor, Gary Head. A great custom and a beautiful description of your friendship with him make this post really special. Thanks for sharing this man.
I did similar adjustments to Alley-Viper, head, night goggles and vest specifically to bring it to my liking. You have a way to always manage with tweaking geared-up figs, either by way of leaving it alone being a great build to start with or personalize it with changes that I personally think are necessary to make it even better! Spire the Blood Lord, Vindicator and Sapper look awesome as well. As always, your short stories on each and every character are flawless! I look forward to what's next!! Awesome bud! Plenty of fun stuff is in the works... just waiting on some finishing touches!! Quote:

Loving all your customs Steel! ;)
Took me a long while getting through them all lol. Man o man, absolutely love Nunchuck with that new Marauders camo, and love how you custom other brands/lines, not just GI Joe, friggin love that, lovin’ the backgrounds too! Phantom Force, Tokyo Dark, October Storm, Wildstrike etc, awesome universe man! Dingo Jack, haha luv that name, fantastic custom! That red beret figure on the first page btw, looks sorta Action Force like Skip, never really seen them before, don’t think they sold them in the UK or anything, what year/decade did they come out, 80’s right? Very cool custom of him though, love it! Ghost Shadow, absolutely love that, yeah Storm Shadows a top fav of GI Hoe for me too, always like the night version and you made him look even cooler, love all the backstory bios too, great stuff! Blades fantastic btw!!! Really like how you have numbered every custom figure you’ve done, awesome, awesome customs! I’d be here forever if I talked about every single one lol, every one is unique, looking forward to what comes up next, superb work dude! Lee.

Love all of these customs! The Sightline homage is a clear standout, and a wonderful tribute.
As ridiculous as the whole (rightfully canceled) Ninja Commando thing was, that Flint's a great interpretation of what his figure would've been. Keep the customs coming! |

@LEEE777 Hey thanks for all the kind words man & welcome to the thread! The "One/Beret" figure from the 1st page is a homage to the Military One action figure line that is yes... from the 80s!
@Matt82 Thank you & welcome! =) Great news there will be a new drop this weekend that I think will offer some surprises for friends of this thread! I have been looking forward to it myself lol!!!!! |
