My Deep Six is basically Torpedo, instead of making them separate characters which freed me up to pass that name on to his dolphin. I kept Torpedo's File name and background. Both were exceptional navy divers/frogmen and both were introverted bordering on antisocial (for my universe there are too many characters with similar traits, so I narrowed it down by combining some similar characters).
Recipe Head, below elbows Arms, and Hands - 50th Hit and Run Body and rest of Arms - ROC Deep Six Legs - Dollar General Cobra Trooper? Boots - ROC Pit Commando with foot peg drilled in heels for flippers Hit and Run's head was the inspiration for this. He doesn't seem very "approachable." He just looks like a Navy Seal coming out of the water at night, ready to get down to business. Torpedo is a cheap dolphin toy. It's perfectly in scale for an Indo-Pacific Bottlenose or maybe a Burrunan Bottlenose, but too small to be a Common Bottlenose (they can grow to 13 feet). Decided to put together a harness for her after looking up Navy Dolphins: http://www.trbimg.com/img-5866b7f0/t...phins-20161230 The "S.H.A.R.C" (Submersible Highspeed Assault/Recon Craft)is just a ROC jetpack/launcher toy. Moved the handles, cutout back peg, added place for underwater camera etc. I welcome feedback and questions, thanks

That’s solid from concept to execution. Well done again.

Thanks all... I wish I could find the source, but I once saw a commercial on navy or marines that had a guy coming out of the water with grey or green stripes on black camo face paint. If I had any confidence in painting I probably would've just painted the rest of H&R in all black or black camo.
I'm not fully satisfied with his arms, but all in all, I really like this one. If I ever get around to improving his arms I'll post an update in this thread. But with the way I move from figure to figure it'll be awhile before I give it go. Thanks again

Deep-Six looks like a no-nonsense type SEAL, ready for a night mission. Cool idea! The dolphin is a bonus.
