You know... Using that torso on this was hands down, flat out brilliant. Your genius just pushed me down and crapped in my shoes. I NEVER would have thought to use that torso as a shoulder holster, and it's only part of why this custom fires on all cylinders. Magnificent work man.
Didn't even register that until Lance pointed it out. Flawless execution. Dusty is one of my favorite figure, I stared at you WIP shots, and but all my mind saw was the final figure and I couldn't see that torso as anything OTHER than how you used it.
This is the cleanest, most fun ARAH custom I've seen in a long time.
EditMan, I need to slow down read people's initial posts better... that badge trick is AMAZING. Again so seamless I didn't even notice it as anything other than a natural part of the whole figure.
Dusty was the only figure with straps like a shoulder holster on a blouse looking torso. The hardest part was sculping a tie from Greenstuff, that thing took a couple of tries.
I also added some Greenstuff on the head to enlarge the moustache and make the sideboards.
The badge, yeah, I think that's my personal favorite feature along with the shoulder holster. The Sabotage music video is pretty blurry and shakey on youtube. It seems like Cochese has his police badge on that right side. I knew I would make it from a small piece of blister, but the golden badge itself got involved in the last few days. I had my doubts wether to "sacrafice" a complete Buzzer torso for this small thing, but I'm glad I did it instead of painting such a star on the badge.
