As the only Multi-National team we each decided that it would be best to do a custom in the Figure area we were most comfortable using, so there is a mix of ARAH and 25th figures for our figure selections. Cobra Eel By Grippen Head: Ace modded Torso: Torpedo painted in red Upper arms: Torpedo Lower arms: Shipwreck painted Hands: Torpedo Legs: Torpedo Helmet: Torpedo + Wet Suit modded Fins: casted unknown Vest: Beachhead Backpack: ARAH Wetsuit Misc. Tubing ![]() ![]() Mountain Warfare By Soulgem Code name: Front Point Always ready with a solution to any possible situation, a mountain climber comes prepared for the worst. That was also one of the reasons Alexander Blanchard was contacted when the G.I.Joe went looking for a mountain trooper. At age 6 he started mountain climbing, when he was 8 he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, at the age of 10 climbed Mt. Elbrus on his 10th birthday. By the time he was 16 he had completed the Seven Summits challenge, a task most climbers can't complete in a lifetime. He is an expert with all conventional fire arms, and a highly skilled survivalist, Front Point is a valuable asset in G.I.Joe's battle against the evil forces of Cobra. Parts and accessories: Head: Clutch v3 Chest: Capt. Grid-Iron Arms: Sneek Peak Torso: Alpine Legs: TF Outback Machine Gun: Marauder Ice Pick: Alpine Backpack: Cobra viper pit Black string ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Cowboy Tex By Carnage717 For my custom I decided to go for a more authentic cowboy look as compared to a modern cowboy. I wanted to do a custom that would put my painting skils to the test so I opted fora more weathered look to his cloths like an Old Time Western Cowboy would have. The horse is just a standard issue PTE horse but he has been completely repainted and the PTE Saddles has been modified to give it stirups, a bunk roll and even a rifle sheath. Parts and accessories: Head: 25th Duke Torso: 25th Duke Legs: Shipwreck Arms: 25th Ace Accessories: Holster: 25th Wilde Weasel Hat(Modded): VvsV Wild Bill Gun: unknown guns Horse: PTE Horse and saddles. Bunk roll: Starwars Jedi Robe Gun Sheath and Stirups: Custom Made ![]() ![]() ![]()

Since the judging is pretty much over for this I figured I post my judges scoring for you guys. Team Soulgem Team work: Right off the bat these guys earn a +1 for helping each other out to turn this project in. I would have liked to have seen a more cohesive group of customs but these are really good none the less. 11/10 Figure breakdown 32/30 Cobra Eel (diver): Great parts, good paint, great accessories, 10 Front Point (mountian climber): good parts, ok paint, good accessories, great addition of the climbing powder pouch, diorama figure photo (+1), 11 Cowboy Tex: ok paint, great parts, great accessories including a painted horse (+1), 11 Bios/background Only 1 1/2 submitted by this group (-4). Lacked a group unity for the customs as a group (-1). Front Point's bio was the best out of the entire project (+1). 6/10 Overall 49/50 |
