Here are a few more Sigma 6 customs I've worked on so far over the holiday. Look for more updates later in the weekend as well.

First up is an update/completion of my General Hawk custom that I had in my dio at JoeCon this year. Basically I just finished painting him up with some nice olive drab pants. I'll be adding some accessories to him but the figure itself is done.

Head: Duke (modified)
Body: Flint
Helmet: Grand Slam
Rifle: Backblast

Next is a custom featuring one of the new heads I had cast by GtG (and soon to be available for sale), Stalker! I've put off doing this guy until I got the head back from Dave. Now that I have it I love it! I will admit that the top of the head is really skinny but its made to be used with the beret and I don't plan on taking it off any time soon so it works.

Head: Custom Cast
Body: Flint w/ AT Recondo lower legs
Beret: Cast Copy
Rifle: Jet Wing Duke w/ Custom TR1ER Sling

Next is one I copied from a guy at JBL. He used a Lt. Stone head on an Iron Grenadier body for the IGs Sgt. Major and I had to give it my take. So I popped the head, dremeled out the IG head to give me the helmet and painted the blue parts black. I did such a crappy job on "shaving" the Stone head that I didn't bother going back to clean it up. Instead I scarred it up a bit and write it off as the Sgt. Major being heavily scarred from so many battles and being too proud to have them surgically fixed. He wears his scars like a badge of honor kinda thing. The helmet doesn't quite fit perfectly but I'm happy with it.

Head: Lt. Stone (modified)
Body: Iron Grenadier
Helmet: Iron Grenadier head (modified)
Rifle: 1/6 w/ Custom TR1ER Sling

And finally here's my latest Rock 'n' Roll custom using the new sculpted head I did. I think I'm finally happy with a Sigma 6 Rock 'n' Roll.

Head: Custom Cast
Body: Combat Squad Recondo w/ AT Recondo hands
Helmet: Gung-Ho (modified)
Accessories: 1/6 scale machine gun & ammo belts

Those are all looking sweet! But with the colors on the IG and the mods to the head, he could almost be passed off as Major Bludd. Regardless, nice work on this batch of customs. I love how Stalker and RnR turned out...two of my favorite characters.

Lookin' good! I may have to pick up an extra Flint and update my Hawk (i.e., copy from you :P) I've got a Stalker in the works using the Commando SE body - still working on the head so that the beret will fit. What was the original base head for Stalker?

R&R is the real surprise of the bunch - love the sculpting work on the head.

Sweet work as always!

Those look sharp. Stalker is my favorite.

They all look GREAT!!

I can't pick a favorite out of the bunch....each one is hella cool!!

I agree about Sgt. Major....at first glance I thought you were going the route of Major Blood.

Wow. I'm probably a S6 "hater" and if they'd made Joes like those they'd be on my shelf now.

very nice. Mega kudos on Stalker, but excellent work all around, esp. the Rock N Roll. Very, very pleasing to someone with an 82-83 obsession.

I agree with MM, if they would have done this with the Joes, I'd probably have more. I love what you have done with these.
