Contest Entry for Joeuniverse.com 'arctic/winter'

DarthDre758 · 12-15-2009, 03:21 PM

This is my first of two planned entries for the contest at Joeuniverse.com.

'Hey Mr GI Joe, who's trying to kill you?' 'I don't know but they better not.'

Parts used:
Torso and upper arms - Resolute 5 Pack Duke
Head - ROC Duke
Helmet - BBI Figure
Half Mask - Comic Pack Beachhead
Web Gear - Random Cobra Solider (dyed black)
Lower Arms - Star Wars Clone Trooper
Legs - ROC Arctic Snake Eyes
Rifle - Marauder (with teflon tape wrappings)
Pack - ROC Duke
Skis - 25th Ann Snow Job

This took me about a week and a half of on and off working. I wanted to get some better out door pictures, but my camera and the weather weren't cooperating. I wanted something that wasn't too ROC-ish for a cold weather, meaning overly bulky jacket and pants. I felt a soldier on the go in a cold environment would keep only essentials on him, and not get too weighed down with gear.

Wouldn't expect any less TD.

Gunzlingr · 12-15-2009, 03:27 PM

Awesome, but it will pale in comparison to my entry. ;)

Just kidding, mine is my first true custom figure (I did a total repaint awhile back), so it is guaranteed to suck.
