Post subject:  First new custom in a while - CRB type guy with dog

I haven't worked on much for a while but I wanted to show you guys one I did recently and get some feedback. I'd probably say he's Cobra - urban chemical warfare but I didn't really make it to fit in any fictional canon, it was made for a friend who doesn't know anything about that stuff. And I did submit it for the gallery, I've been meaning to do that with others I have too but my mind is kind of mush right now so righting just the basic descriptions makes me anxious because I'm sure I sound stupid.

I like it. I do not envy applying all that white paint. Nice job.

yeah man, that's silky smooth for white paint

(I feel bad for the dog though - where's his mask?)

I also feel bad for the dog. :(

But the work is top notch, especially given that you were working with white, which is quite difficult.

BTW, if you're just tuning in, white paint is difficult to work with. :lol:

Haha, yeah I know. It is true, that's why I usually avoid it or find pieces that are already white - which is what I did here, at least the torso and arms were from Arctic ROC snake eyes so I don't have to worry about paint rub. I tried to find white kneecaps to fit but ended up painting and sealing the original Airtight ones. The vest and helmet of course had to be painted with several coats.

Edit about the dog - Canary is what doorman calls every new dog he gets when the old ones die, as they do often since he uses them as attack dogs and as guinea pigs to test hazardous enviroments, hence the name canary... like canary in a coal mine.

Well if he were on the Joe team, the dog would wear the mask and the handler would be the one named Canary...
