Ok, if you can't tell by my new avatar (it's from Splinter Cell: Conviction), I'm kinda into ol' Sam. I've been playing Chaos Theory off and on for the past week. I already had a SpyTroops version of Sam, but figured if anything, he deserved an update along with the rest of my Joes.






Fig is a 25A SE (what else?) with a VvV Duke head (tried to find something better, but no luck) and SAW Viper hands. I just noticed all that crap on his neck - it's left over from when I was painting on his stubble - sorry about that.

The goggles were made from Depth Charge goggles, a cut-up lightsaber, and Green Stuff. I'm especially proud of the SC-20K I found. Originally, I built one from scratch using an MJ P90 and some other parts (top), but then I found my long-lost SC-20 hidden amongst my fodder (bottom). It came as part of a super-cheap set of crappy figures at Dollar General. I think the whole pack was $2 and it came with laptops, other crap, and this baby. I added an MJ silencer and it's perfect now:



The "real thing" for comparison:




And the mandatory action shots:






Enjoy!

As a big Fisher fan, I have to say you captured his likeness pretty well. He's kind of a mix between the Splinter Cell 1 and Double Agent Sam Fishers, which looks really cool. I've got to know how you painted the stubble too. I like making Pandora Tomorrow style Sam figures, so I always put camo/dirt on his face. I'd like to do one with stubble at one point though. And please, for all that is Holy, find me another one of those SC-20's! Or two. Or three. I'm tired of making my own, and you have the perfect one right there.

PS: You'll like my next 25th custom. I just have to wait to get my parts in

This...I like. =)

I'm seriously considering making one as well. Nice job bro.

Thanks Guys!

For the stubble, I just paint a beard on, then wash some flesh tones over it to give it a faded look. I used to use gray, but found that a flesh wash over a black or dark brown beard worked best.

If I can get around to it and figure out the process, I'll likely cast a bunch of the SC-20s (since there are no Dollar Generals in Colorado.) I figure that a LOT of people would want one or many of these babies.

I never got Double Agent - the plot line just didn't appeal to me (and who wants to bother with a "trust meter" anyway?), but I'm really looking forward to Conviction - but I hear it just got pushed back til like March or so

Thanks again!

That.....is simply awesome. I'm not a Splinter Cell fan myself, (played it, didn't really like it) but I know a good custom when I see one, and that is a damn good custom. Nice job!

Yeah, the Trust Meter kind of blew, but other than that, it was pure SC. The very last scene in the game is what I believe threw Sam over the edge and most likely will tie into ConViction.

Sam's

Which leads us to The Fisher Ultimatum...I mean ConViction

Yeah, in my 'verse,

The new novel comes out on November 3rd. I can't wait, especially if it's as good as the last one. The first two were meh.

*Bump for a sweet custom.

Cast SC-20's? Make it so!

Nice work. One of the best Sam Fisher's I've seen. So, Chief, have you considered using the 25A Snake Eyes in any of your customs?

I'm starting to appreciate the 25th SE more as a base for customs. I never played the games, but this is a fine custom.

That gun is absolutely perfect.

At last count, I had only used 23 SEs for customs:



And I still have 8-10 in the fodder box . No wonder I don't have any money


Thanks guys!
