25th Blackout

TR1ER · **Posted:** Tue Jan 08, 2008 3:00 pm

First off I want to give props to gargoyle and his post about has any one made a 25th Blackout yet from the comic book http://www.joebattlelines.com/phpBB3/vi ... f=5&t=2619 . after checking out his post and looking at the pic I just knew I had to make that version to go with the Bombstrike custom that I made..

As far as the parts list nothing really major just a 25th Beachead and a Comic pack General Abernathy head that is dead on with that pic and add a Marauder rifle to try and match up to the pic.

SO and now on to the pics I hope you guys enjoy his Blackout custom!

Come with me Sister!

I like it! Clean and realistic. Good paint job.

Other than the hair color, I can definitely dig it. It's basic and very effective for exactly who the character is. And I'm bias for the Stall family, kudos.

I dig him. The only critique I have is the missing Cobra forearm protectors. I always felt that was the one thing that set BO apart from other figures.

Hmm thanks J I did not even think of that but I wanted that comic look thanks again my man.

I like it. Has a dark, shadowy, stealthy feel.

he's missing the cross-eyed look that my blackout figure has (yes, for a while i thought it ws like this for everyone's blackout figure) ...and the goggles.

Another awesome custom man! I don't think we'd be seeing either of these characters any time soon in the 25th line. Nor would we be seeing one as hot as that bombstrike

Oh well then, if its the comic look you're going for, well, then it works... almost. :lol:

Seriously, definitely a great representation of him as seen in those pages.

Great idea! I've been looking for a recipe - I think this is it (so simple, yet looks really sharp.)

My only problem with the Hawk head is that it looks pretty small. I used the same head to try & make a Hawk custom and I found it too pea-headed for the 25A bodies. But I think that's still the best-looking Hawk head out there - too bad they made it a tad too small.

Really nice job!

Wow thanks for the feedback guys I really appreciate it very much.

Chief the head really is not much smaller then the BH head that comes on the figure my man I took a lot off when I dremelled out the head to fit the neck post so have at homie!
