The Rest: Marauders Task Force Parts


My previous 1992 V3 Deep Six was a reaction to seeing another customizer's V3 Deep Six. I had never seen a custom of that particular Deep Six and I was blown away at the creativity on display. I tried to emulate what I had just seen, but my final product left a lot to be desired. Over time, I became very disappointed in my custom, but left it alone as I had no idea how to make a better version.
Several years later, I received a freebie head (shown) from a custom-parts website and thought it was really cool. I placed it on a blue Marauders Task Force figure and thought that it would make the beginnings of a nice Eco Warriors Deep Six.
I try to make my Marauders custom as close to the vintage figures as I can, but in this case, I promised myself I wouldn't worry so much about fidelity and would focus more on making a cool looking figure.
When trying to accessorize my figure, I remembered that painting the small pouches and pockets on my previous Deep Six had been very underwhelming. This time I decided to try to dye the parts. I left all the little accessories in some Magenta Rit Dye for 24 hours and a slight nice pink hue without losing any details. I finished Deep Six off with some G.I. Joe Skydive thrusters to denote some oxygen tanks and some blue BFS plain shoes to suggest that he's wearing a wet-suit.
