The latest completed member of my Fireteam 6. Tunnel Rat.

I included a shot of the group so far. Still have Shipwreck and Spirit Iron-Knife to come.

Really like the looks of the green on these three, keep 'em coming!

I like the look overall, and the green theme is one that seems so simple, yet looks really good.

Only reservation I have has to do with scale. Having a hard time visually accepting Tunnel Rat standing eye-to-eye with Roadblock. But I acknowledge that could be as simple as personal preference.

looks good, you do nice paint apps, the parts all look like they were cast in the color you are shooting for. Spirit I'll be looking forward to, shipwreck will be a good one too. Any plans on a female in the team though???

I wouldn't mind having him a little shorter to be more accurate, I didn't really think about that. Maybe I can do a revisit to Roadblock and use the legs and lower torso of all those multi-pack Retaliation Dwayne Johnson Roadblocks I have that I absolutely hate. That might give him a little extra height.

Actually yeah, in the back of my mind I have a Scarlett. I have about 3 Renegades versions and I think a 6th member and a female might round it out really well.

Scarlett, also your intelligence officer, good to have as you romp through enemy territory!

I like the psuedo og 13 treatment using those duke bodies.

Fun stuff.

Would definitely do the Roadblock body switch, though.

yup the one thing I didn't care for with roadblock was his small stature, bump him up a bit and these will be awesome.

they are already pretty great btw. do you have a articular "mission" for this team?

I already have the parts picked out for a larger RB. I'm gonna start fresh instead of tearing apart the completed figure. I happen to have everything I need anyway.

As for a mission, this is kind of a look back in time. I have the idea that all Joes must go through a provisional stage in their joining GI Joe, in which they are placed on Fireteams and sent on "SEAL type" covert missions. This ensures they are capable and allows them to teach each other as they come from all different backgrounds and branches of military. So the group I am making, is just one of many such groups that have been formed throughout the years and dismantled once they became full fledged members.

I chose to call it "Fireteam 6" because it sounds cool. Maybe because it sounds like SEAL Team 6.

I don't know how SEAL team names like that work but you could use the number as a number assigned to each version of the team and each version gets a new number. So there would have been 5 Fireteams before this one.

Very nice team, can't wait for the Scarlett. Excellent paint job as well.
