Hardest screen name to real life match-up on the board.

Nice. I know nothing of the actual character (beyond the 'unproduced'), but he looks great. You should make a Headhunter to be his nemesis.

that's a great figure. I'm also unfamiliar with the character in relation to EF, but I did what you've done with him.

I like this one a lot. Retro and modern at the same time.

Thanks, guys. The hat can go a bit lower on the head, but didn't want to scratch up the paint.

The IJ fedora was a given, but it really limited the heads I could work with. In the no-hat picture, the head vaguely resembles Harrison Ford as Deckard in Blade Runner. That frustrates me, as I tried to find one that had zero Harrison Ford vibe. But what can you do?

As far as a nemesis, I had a rough concept kicking around in my head for Dreadnok drug runner, but it could translate over to a Head Hunters character. Other than a Gristle repaint, I've never done another HH character. Thanks for the suggestion.

I can't say enough good things about the Marauder Tommy gun, either. Without it, I would have been stuck using an undersized Sgt. Rock one (which would work okay for an ARAH figure, but not this one). This is the first time I've painted a Marauder piece. The detail they put into their work is impressive.
