Here is some stuff that has found a home in my "to do" box. Most of it has been put aside due to the forthcoming child among other real life stuff.

Some of it carries over from last year so bear with me.

Red Jackel: Was my Destro WIP but has been repurposed after deciding on a new direction with Destro.
Image

Bloodbath: With the release of the new Ice Viper I could finally make an o-ring version of the Chap Mei hockey mask guy.
Image

Budo: Been wanting this one for a while. Think I'm going with a biker meets Samurai look.
Image

Chainz: Intended to be Buzzer for the Ninja Force GP but life got in the way there again. Still gonna get him painted and make him a new 'nok.
Image

Flint: Cause the Spytroops version sucked.
Image

Headman: Another one I've wanted to make for a long time and finally got the right parts with ROC. Not happy with the ponytail and collar though.
Image

Lady Jaye: Not too happy with my first custom of her.
Image

Link: Ninja Force medic.
Image

Lotus: Third or forth version of her. Finally happy, I think.
Image

Mercer V2: Gonna be an original character. Still need a head.
Image

T'Jbang: For my ever growing Ninja Force.
Image

Steam Roller: Need a heavy vehicle operator. And he needed a shirt.
Image

And as an added bonus, a couple figures I actually finished sometime this year.

Ripper: I wanted a figure that meshed with my custom Buzzer and VvV Torch a little better. I wanted the camo shirt to look like a cheapo flea market find instead of an actual camo print army shirt. I made a handheld Jaws of Death for him since I figured it would be easier to handle. And I upgraded his bayonet.
Image

And a close up of his head details. Used 25th Ripper as a base with Sculpey bandanna, Dart ponytail, and Storm Shadow bandanna tails.
Image

Swamp Rat: Wanted an excuse to use the BTR Firefly mold. And I didn't like the removable helmet on Swamp Rat. Started with a Swamp Rat head and added a mouthpiece from Plo Koon and bits from the Swamp Rat helmet to make a masked head.

Image

Duel knives as a reference to the original figure. They fit in the backpack.

some nice ideas, especially liking the swamp rat!
you need to extend the neck on flint, his head is sitting a bit too low.

Thanks for the feedback. A lot of these are early on WIPs that I just pieced together and haven't gotten down to the dirty work of making everything fit properly yet.
