Freakin' sweet! Always wanted to see this done.

Would you be interested in hosting a "GI Joe reskin" if I did one with the original scans? I've always wanted to turn it into the cartoon HQ...

We've planned 3 seperate themes for this command complex, (without giving away exactly what it is ), but sounds to me you may have figured it out. here's what's planned.

1. straight up reissue

2. Superheroes

3. JOE/Cobra

I'm sorry I haven't been online as much, this one is taking a lot of time, but I wanted to give everyone a sneak peek reRendering alone is chewing up some time, but the end result will be worth the wait.

Freakin' Sweet!

I take it the hardest time you're gonna have with it is figuring out how to downscale it to Joe size. Is that in the plans?

It really doesn't need to be downsized, (although I may put in a new piece to make it seem more to scale with 3& 3/4 inch figures). but that would not be done on the straight reissue, And there are different scales in the various action figure lines, but I welcome your imput, and will consider what you said...........Well...back to the grind!

Jamie,

It looks like my base is being put to good use. :) I definitely can't wait to see the final product!

And yes, in my opinion, the base works fine as is for 3-3/4" Joes. Many years ago I used it for a Cobra base, and it works well aside from the large guns printed on the walls of the armory. Even then, you can probably just imagine them as being vehicle parts.

I'm almost there, I'm putting a few easter eggs into the Themed versions (the straight remake will be just that, a straight remake) But I cannot wait to show you guys what I'm cooking up for the Themed ones!



( and while I'm on here if anyone has scans of the cardboard pieced to the tyco transformers train, or Trasformers cardboard S.T.A.R.S. set please contact me).

WOOT! I'm hoping to have this one ready before the new game hits (I put a lot of time into this one)yes it's a reissue, but the other 2 versions that I'm making using the template took a lot more planning to make compatable with other toylines. I really have to thank my friends over at Inkwell printing for helping with the cleanup on the original scans. (I cannot wait to show these off, just bear with me).

IT's Almost time, I just spoke to Carl at Inkwell Printing and my order should be ready by the end of the week, I am sorry for the delay, but my ISP had to be replaced because of various issues, but I'll post pics when the order comes in (I had no idea that this project would be such an undertaking), but Inkwell's Studios really helped me out and these will be the best command centers we've offered yet.
