This is my second attempt at this character; first attempt did not go well. To avoid sculpting the diamond pattern on the torso I had attempted to dremel it with an engraving bit which was an unmitigated disaster. I ended up turning that figure into my Burnout custom.
but I couldn’t let that failure stop me, and decided to just take the time to sculpt the diamond pattern which matches the art on the box. I was originally going to skip the golden stalk of Brussels sprouts on his leg, but it just felt wrong for the character to not have the grenades stupidly attached to his leg.

Good work, buddy. That's super accurate. The extra work was worth it for sure.

It makes me happy and sad to see this. Happy because someone has the crazy talent to make this custom. Sad because I don't own it.
Great work! |

And so you've identified the custom gazer's paradox.

Looks great. I would like to see the gun more. It looks like you rearranged and combined two guns.
