My second character from my G.I. Joe Resolute Kai series of custom. I originally planned of just using an ROC General Hawk Body and a Flint in Cobra Disguise head. But these figures were not available in our area that time and I don't really want to spend too much in making a custom since I'm kinda' low in budget. I had the chance to acquire a Flint from the G.I. Joe Boxed Set. It has a good headsculpt and the TF Flint arms which I like so I gave it a shot. The difficult part was converting the buttoned shirt with rolled sleeves into a t-shirt. The tactical vest, belt, pants, and boot covers were sculpted. Belt pouches and gloved hands from random Elite Force BBI figures. I used Flint's original webgear with the shotgun shells on his tactical vest because I ran out of rubber straps to use and I like it better than putting the shells on his left forearm.
Converting the original Flint torso worked very well. I used the ROC Hawk torso and upper arms for my Res Flint and truth be told, I'm NOT very happy with the results. He looks way to scrawny. Fail for me :o( Your Flinty is proportionate and bad-ass!

thanks bro. it's just a Flint from the G.I. Joe boxed set. hands and belt pouches from elite force bbi figs.
@ erwiny: thanks bro. i was able to acquire a General Hawk and a Flint in disguise head after i did my Flint. i also tried the headswap. but i think swapping Hawk's hands with a gloved one will also make significant changes to the figures build. |

@ steve2477:
thanks. Quote:
ummm... there is no left knee pad. the left knee was sculpted to blend with the pants' sculpt. Flint only has a right knee pad in Resolute. Last edited by Squall; 01-02-2010 at 09:39 AM.. |

Great job on him! I really like the paint work and attention to detail... especially with the gear. The head does look like earily Fred Gwyn, though. I'm getting a weird "My Cousin Vinny" vibe from him... "Did you say, 'Yutes'?"
