Here is a custom I just finished for DarrenHowlett
All he gave me was a filename (Lonestar) and a specialty (Infantry).
Here he is
Lonestar:Infantry
Let me know what you think.

What an odd collection of parts! They work though and flow together nicely. They gun is the high point for me. Is it a custom piece? It looks like about three guns mashed together. |

He has an interesting space cowboy look to him. He reminds me of something, but I can't think of what it is right now. |

I am very pleased how it turned out. HypnoHustler wrote: Levantine wrote: He has an interesting space cowboy look to him. He reminds me of something, but I can't think of what it is right now.

The white is a bit much, but I wanted to keep with the hokey cowboy motif. |

The boots look a little bulky, but the rest of him looks great. The gun is a masterpiece though, taking two really crappy overly abundant weapons and fusing them into something really amazing looking. I am going to have to try a take on that. - R |

Yeah, Bravestarr was what he reminded me of. I couldn't think of the name. |

I like it a lot. It has a cheesey look to him, but a good cheese.  As others have mentioned, the gun is the bomb. Great use of parts as usual.

I wanted someone who still worked as a Joe, but had a definate non-military motif (hardball, bazooka, spirit). I had a knockoff gun I was going to use, but it was too big. I'm glad I made the gun, and very happy that it didn't take alot of modding. for this character, I picture him as a narcissistic hot shot rifleman, who is just as concerned with his looks as he is his military skills. |

Agree. Figure is great. Sharp colors and unusual - but good parts. But the gun is a masterpiece. |

Matt these turned out incredible. I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at them when I picked up Roscoe, who is doing great. They looked great then; but after the final paint apps these guys are freaking awsome. |
