Need some advice choosing a fig for a custom

Got a tip to share? Have a question about the hobby? Need input on parts or weapons? Have great idea for a custom figure or vehicle? Too lazy to do it, or just want to share the idea with others? All that and more goes in here.

Need some help from somebody, please.

I need a figure with the following specs:

3.75 to 4 inches tall
Very stocky build, wide shoulders
Clothed
Should be fairly generic looking, easy to sand down chest, arms, legs smooth
Not many pouches, holsters, bandoliers, etc so I don't have to take many off
Would be easier to customise if it is T-Crotch, but joe articulation would be fine
Does not need to be ball-jointed

Any help on identifying figures like this will be gratefully received
Thanks in advance

For an upper torso, the steel brigade guys/Salvo. they have a pocket on each sleeve, but the shirt/chest/back is just a shirt, and a funny clasp thing at one shoulder. They are pretty solidly built though

the legs however have some cargo pockets and knee pads,.

Many thanks for the ideas, guys! :-D

I was reading the posts and suddenly had a "D'oh!" 8-O moment. With a little bit of filler clay, Road Pig would be perfect for what I have in mind. Thanks for the inspiration.
