Korrin Owintz - New Republic Elite Stealth Commando Demolitions Expert

Korrin Owintz serves in the same New Republic Elite Stealth Commando unit as Joh Kolton II, acting as the team's demolitions expert. Owintz was a structural engineer prior to joining the New Republic Military. Owintz deduced that the same skills he utilized in constructing buildings, bridges, spaceports, etc. could be just as useful (if not more so) in destroying said buildings, bridges, spaceports, etc. Owintz is just as good at defusing explosives as he is at setting them so he also functions as the team's EOD (Explosives Ordinance Disposal). It is also said that Owintz has a light foot as he has walked over fusion landmines without setting them off....

I like him, especially the "light foot" comment. Can you say why he has six republic symbols on him? Was that done intentionally to signify something?

Thanks!

The multiple symbols were part of the uniform as it appeared in the comics so I left them for consistency.

I've always liked that uniform. Since I couldn't make real Wing Commander pilots, I used that uniform as the base for all those great technical accents on the arms and back.

Great character as usual. Love your universe, there is so much going on that I can easily relate to immediately.

I like it, but that purse looks like a purse...

Maybe the mask bag from Zartan or Agent Faces? It has been used for a few customs on here and it is shaped like a duffle bag.

Ok Eric, the second Wing Commander reference I've seen from you, but I can't for the life of me recall your WC customs? I've played every iteration of WC from the old floppy disk days to the interactive movie games. so I must see them. Or is this a current project?

EDIT: Sorry for the hijack here, I thought it was a pm! That said, I do dig the figure, but didn't comment at first because I didn't get the Joe tie-in until pluv's post, and I wanted to make sure I knew the source character before jumping in.

I really like that head in general - it's surprisingly versatile AND underutilized, which is nice. And here it works great.
