Really like the sculpt on this figure, it just needed resizing and more life like aesthetics.
To do this, I had to prime and repaint everything to capture forced shadows . Then once I painted it, I said damn. This is Blizzard. The guy who lives and fights in sub zero and below temps. I gotta add ice and snow to make him really stand out and honor his Joe name. So I painted snow on him, his skis and ski poles. Also had to give him wolf fur and face mask just to add even more realism. Honestly this guy was so fun to make. Let me know what you think!

That is amazing. The fur....dang. I wish you designed the new Joes. I would be broke, but I would be happy. The snow on the skis too. Detail Man.

Awesome! The fur really does look great and subtle paint aps and snow look fantastic. I love the arctic Joes and once again you have done justice to this updated look.

Love the snow effects on the skis and poles. Blizzard is one of my favorite Joes and this is a great update to the character.

Now that's a true arctic battled fighter who defies the subzero elements. Soft goods addons (face mask & fur) as well as all other micro details make this such unique custom bearing your signature all over. Great work!
