The goal - 13 original Joes modeled almost exactly to their vintage counterparts with liberties taken only to slightly enhance realism or provide a bridge to their comic incarnation, as that's my leaning. I want them this way because I just haven't seen it done and it's the way I like them, of course. I consider the 25th line superior to the vintage figures in construction - so that's the medium I chose to use. If someone already has done the original 13 in 25th style accurate to their original counterparts and has executed it extremely well it's something I want to see - so I can steal their ideas
The majority of my time was spent
1. Matching colors (I now have almost the exact shade of every color from '82/'83)
2. Choosing parts (for accuracy I felt I needed to use, and was pleased with the results from, vintage thighs - I couldn't stand the straps from the modern line)
I'm nowhere near finished, as can be seen, but I had to post my progress here. I am adding new parts that are not from the original design though, like Steeler's jerry can and Clutch's wrench.
Comments, suggestions and criticisms are what I'm looking for.
PM me if you have DoubleClutch/Steeler lower legs to trade or offer me.
Things to do -
1. Make a push mold of the Hasbro belt buckle for each of the figures that need one (no more generic buckles) or find more belts.
2. Find enough extra feet for all the guys (right now I'm only using regular boots if the original boots were all black... I love the new Steeler boots)
3. Find a way to put a knife on the left side of the harness straps
4. sculpt thin lines around the alternately colored pockets so they look like they could conceivably work (i.e. represent a clearly different fabric instead of a floating pocket.)
Progress
