I initially started used Footloose legs but at the last moment went with the Barrage/Grunt combo. Also I was on the fence about the arms. Started with Flint uppers/Duke (p 4 & 5) or the 25th ones ( p 1-3). The 25th’s are too long so I chopped off some length in the forearm. Unfortunately the girths don’t match. I started to use green stuff to re-sculpt them but lost patience. Is there an easier more effective way to “shrink the arms?” The mustache was also redone from 4&5 to the finished one below and in 1-3.

I’m pretty happy with the result but am curious about the 25th duke arms… does anyone have a technique to shrink and fix the slit wrists?


(finished)
Leatherneck

Accessories: (hat) 25th GH, (rifle) 25th Duke, (backpack) VvV Shipwreck
Head: Barrel Roll
Torso: Footloose
Arms: Cross Hairs (upper), Duke (lower)
Waist: Beach Head
Legs: Grunt (upper), Barrage (lower)

Not a big fan of most of the DTC stuff, but this is a great looking figure!

Nice job on all. It's refreshing to see NS customs, and you've done a heck of a job with them.

Thanks guys! I know this era of joes isn't that popular with most collectors, but I still like them quite a bit for a few reasons I won't go into.



Yup. Here's another pic of him if anyone's interested. The guy on the end is supposed to be Backblast.

Nothing wrong with NS. If it weren't for NS I wouldn't have re-established my love for Joes. Again, great work, and I hope to see more from you.

I agree nothing wrong with Ns I think they're better than Arah stuff. Airborne looks good besides his big ass.
Show us more when you can

Wow, those really hit the mark, great job.

Very good job on the mustache

The Barrel Roll head works perfectly for Leatherneck. All of these are good figures.
