martin-montreal commissioned these two. He wanted me to base Airborne off of sgartz's Airborne custom, then use the same camo on Shockwave.

Let me know what you think

Both are very nice. Clean paint apps. You are one of the best camo painters out there. I'd have to say that Shockwave is my fave of the two, just being a big SW fan and all. Really great to see more customs from you.

Very nice! Great job on the camo details indeed! I personally like Airborne better - I really like the highlights on the straps and buckle!

Very nice, really digging the airborne in those colors, not so much shock wave. Paint and all looks great, good job.

As much as I like the camo on Shockwave, I absolutely love that Airborne.

I must have the parts list!

Nice job!

Wow...that's officially the first time that's happened to me!

I like what you did with Airborne: the original figure's parts look good on him. Nice camo, too; it's one of the most even camo jobs I've seen in a while.

And I love the Shockwave. It's such a great mold anyway, and the camo really brings out some of the detail in the sculpt. Plus, it's nice to see a Shockwave in a non-blue color scheme (something I've been wanting to do for years).

Always good to see some new ones from you!

thanks man. I'm glad you approve on the camo. You wouldn't believe how difficult is was trying to match the camo on your figure. From the fact that I despise painting camo, to the fact of your image is small, well let's just say it's amazing it came out that well :D

I'm surprised how well Shockwave works too. I think he'd work better as a new character though. Almost has a Stargate feel to him (minus the head)

Very nice job Matthew!

Both look good. The camo is consistant throughout and looks realistic. My only cirtique at all is that I might have put a little silver on his torso knife sheath or handle like you did with the one on his leg. That way it would have broekn up the all black torso a bit. It certainly works either way.
