Post subject: | Big Boa, Lt. Stone, Black Ice |
First things first, a minor update on Spin Doctor's old Big Boa custom (which I won on ebay around the time the FSS version got announced). Basically touched up a few paint apps, and swapped the taped-up CM Punk hands with some UFC gloves, which I added red highlights to. Lt. Stone was basically born out of me trying different heads on my old quick and easy Sidetrack custom. That Duke head on that body promptly gave me super-Lt. Stone vibes so he became that. Gave him an old aughties-era Dusty webgear and some new weapons to finish the look. (And according to his bio, which I looked up afterwards, Lt. Stone is a Marine, so that's some convenient synchronicity with my Leatherneck custom that used the same body base) And lastly, my own take on the CanJoeCon icon himself, Black Ice. Any excuse is a good excuse, as far as I'm concerned, to have more Cobras using that ROC Cobra trooper body-type in my collection. Did my best to distinguish him as much from the actual CanJoeCon figure as possible, although I had to go with the ST Shipwreck armor (or rather a cast from VortiousCustomAccessories) as nothing else really looked good with the armor pieces of the base figure. The head is this awesome HISS Driver/Jetpack Trooper mishmash design from Hunterartworks. Sort of added some gas mask elements from Mike's Sigma Six Black Ice to the whole thing. Thanks for looking! |

Lt. Stone looks great. Makes me wish that base figure was easier to find. |

Extreme made have had some crap figures and the 'toon was less than stellar, but there were some cool characters in the line (I'd say Metal Head evolved into Hi-Tech). Some that should be revisted in the ME form. Your Stone looks great, and such a nice simple custom too. Black Ice looks great and is the unmasked head on BB your idea or Spin Doc's? Either way, it looks right for the body. |

Everything on Big Boa but the gloves (and my touching up some paint wear here and there) was Spin. I just wanted to show it off since the original post Spin made for it seems to have vanished. |

I've always had a hard time imagining how BB would look unmasked, but this would be the best interpretation I've seen so far. |
