It's Custom Celebration time, so just like I do every year, I try to set aside my "LASER BLAST" attitude and post some Adventure Team stuff.

I've got a lot more that I'm tweaking (including a team of bad guys), but work, school, and home improvement projects are sapping my time.

So for now I'll toss up what I have so far. Maybe I'll be able to type up the backstories and other stuff later on.

AT Core Members:



Tarzan w/pants:



Tarzan sans pants:



Alan Grant & Tim:



Updated Steve Austin w/Sasquatch. Because #*@% Mike Power.



Action Man, Connor Kenway, & Lara Croft:



Arctic Adventurer:




Oh, yeah - and I rebooted Kwinn:




And here's a preview of one of the bad guys:




Hopefully, I can get some more pics taken tonight & tomorrow to add to these.

Cheers!

Thanks guys!

Here are the not-fully-fleshed-out-as-characters-and-mostly-LBC "Evil Adventure Team". The big game hunter with the Christopher Lee head is based on General Zaroff, from the Most Dangerous Game. The dude with the hunchback and blond Punisher head is his mute manservant, Ivan. The other guys have no identity as yet - mostly just random mercenaries. Gotta figure out what to do with the Crimson CC custom.

Oh - and I figured since I have Sam Elliott on my AT, I can put Tommy Lee Jones on this one

love it. I'd probably have really expanded on my own Adventure Team by now, but I know I just can't keep up with yours (well, that and the lack of vehicle customizing, which is essential for a quality AT).

Help me out though - Connor Kenway is?? And wasn't that an early version of Tarzan for you?

edit: nm, googled it. interesting.

Connor Kenway is the protagonist in Assassin's Creed III - so this is one of his descendants.

Or is it...? ....


Dang - I almost forgot this guy:





NOT the Rock, not Roadblock. If anyone but me saw Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, it's Hank Parsons from that flick. Former Navy Cryptologist, current construction engineer.



Also, here's a special-order Adventure Team Glider made by our very own J_Man!

Same head, but a different custom. The early Tarzan became Teenage Mowgli instead:

I love the Dooku head on that body. Like ENOUGH, you know what I'm sayin?

These are all great. F'real. Good to see you haven't abandoned us completely and stuff.

This is all gold- the customs, the dios, the pics.

Wow, Chief - Amazing work, as always!

It's a real treat to see your stuff, as rare as it is, and your talent just continues to improve! All of this stuff looks better than retail!

Thanks for sharing!

your friend,

Chief,

Great customs and awesome Dio setups and shots!

Fantastic team.
I like the head you're using for the Adventure Team commander.

That glider rocks!

Man I can't get enough of these. Journey 2 Rock is my favorite. I just really like the color combo on the shirt the way you did it. A lot of awesome but him and that glider steal the show for me.

All is great but love the Hank Parsons! And yes I saw it.

Thanks, guys!

Yeah, I'm pretty fond of Hank-Rock. Originally, he just had a yellow shirt and jeans, but it looked too much like my Luke Cage custom, so I painted up the pants black and opted for the red shoulders - and that seems to have made all the difference.

I may go back and try to sand off the goatee to further distinguish him from RB, though.

Thanks again for the kind words!
