So yesterday I debuted my new Major Bludd at the DFW GI Joe show. I'd be interested in any critiques. I amalgamated a couple figures but heavily tried to recreate the DTC version since I view that as a kinda updated realistic modern slant on the character.

Just one. Your armed with an AK 47. But you have AR 15 mags in your vest. Most people might not even know the difference. But I'm a firearms expert. So obviously I noticed. Good job though!

Maybe a black sleeve or sleeve cover(?) for your right arm to simulate Blood's right arm? Awesome costume btw!!

LOL you got me jmonahan78. Yeah I used an AK since it says Cobra weapon to me but I have M4 mags being in the Army . If that's the only critique that jumps out at you I guess I did a pretty good job. Thanks for looking and giving me your 2 cents.

I agree. I also noticed. I've been in the Army for 16 years though. I'd say most people wouldn't notice the difference too much.
Other than that, I love it. I dig the mechanical feel of the gloves and little Cobra sig details. One question though....Is that 'stache the real deal?

Thanks CG. I'm not a fan of the rocket launcher gun or the protective arm armor he wears in version 1. So I drew inspiration from version 4 and the DTC version 6 of the character BUT the black armored arm is probably one of the top 3 identifiable things for the character. Is there anything else that comes to mind?

Thanks c_money_collins. LOL, while I normally have my own 'stache, this one is a fake since to be in regs I couldn't go that long on the sides and the previous weekend I shaved my 'stache to be Justice Lords Batman at a BN function.

Fantastic work- it looks super as is, but that arm armor is such a trademark look for the Major it always looks off when it's missing. Some motorcross armor could do the trick. But even if you don't change a thing it's pretty damn spot-on cool!
