So, here's a new Budo. Eagle-eyed viewers may recall some of this scheme from my entry in Slice's Custom Contest, Part I. Retooled it a bit and painted it in v1 colors.

I dig it, bro! The build and the colors sell this as a legit Budo update, which is easily recognized as such. The pistol holster is a nice addition, too!

Clean work my friend. Scout carry wakizashi is a great idea also!

Awesome build with this one. Love the final unmasked shot, comes off as a total badass modern version Budo. Like him with that helmet / mask, gives him a cool updated look, but i love the head you used so much for the character that this would be my unmasked Budo on the shelf.
As always, clean paint and great coloring. Especially like the green used on the pants.

Great work.
Seeing this reminds me of how the FSS version lost all the commando elements that made the original figure so cool.

I clearly remember this one being your Slice's custom contest entry. I like the v1 colors, but I prefer the black/blue/red color scheme on your original custom, coupled with the new tooling you've incorporated here.
Awesome work as usual Ax! |

You know, I thought I was, too, but I prefer the vintage colors after all.
