My first Joe custom anything..
I live a fair clip away from any proper hobby stores, so a lot of my stuff is super.... budget... based. Like this chop shop A-10 to Rattler conversion, right outta Dollar Tree. (Needed two Warthogs to contribute enough ordinance and the extra engine, the turret is the back chopped off of one of those engines). All the greebles are watch parts, originally the nose cannon had a central spar and three "barrels" around it... This was about four years ago, so the barrels gave up the ghost before I got decent pix.. This thing is now mostly milliput and is hilariously heavy compared to the toy that birthed it. And now I kinda hate the Cobra emblem on the wing If I were to do another it would involve magnets, a stand... rotating wings.. Decals perhaps. |

Thanks much all!
They were selling these packs here, (I think the card back changed once). But you'll have to peer around for them now. They seem to be fading (Kinda wanted to make that AWACs plane into the Cobra transport) Last edited by juxstapo; 07-28-2021 at 08:04 PM.. |

That's amazing. It's so small and yet detailed. Great work.
