Can't pick a name? Do two customs and use them both:

Storm Watch.
Head: Rebel Hoth Trooper/Commander
Body: POC Doc
Backpack: POC Doc?
Rifle: ??

Storm Watch is the sensor operator expert on the Polar Sharc force. His craft is outfitted with extensive sensor suites, especially sonar and lidar and he is able to vector the other Sharc's in for kill or containment. Looks like I have some touchup work to do under the arms. I purposedly used a different red as I did not want them to match each other or Ice Storm.

Ice Pack (the wife picked the name).
Head: POC Zartan/Sandstorm
Body: POC Doc
Backpack: 25th Wraith
Rifle: ??
Polar Sharc Sub Wingman/Weapons Officer
I wanted this guy to be Ice Storm's wingman, and am trying to reverse the black and red color pattern of Ice Storm. I plan to leave the blue on the boots to match the blue gloves.

Whenever I see the de-mohawked Ripper head I always see Joseph from the first Mercenaries video game.

For the last one, an enforcer type. Body guard, security, something like that.

I'd leave the rainbow guy as is and just put a different head on him.

He's got a similar uniform design like Cutter and Shipwreck. A head swap (and cover the tats) and you have a new character.

I'd just use them, as a cost cutting matter for the bean counters, as the uniform of the guys that operate that vehicle (Ice Sharc or whatever it's called).

TIE Pilot looks good. Nothing needed.

As for the Ripper head. I would add a widow's peak on his forehead and just make him either another Tomahawk pilot (since there is always more than one flying and it would put Wild Bill back in the Dragonfly where he belongs) or Lift-ticket's co-pilot. I'm all for having proper flights crews for stuff...

That Ripper head would be good for a Sly Rax custom.

Without the mohawk, Ripper's head looks like Clutch with sunglasses on.

Dude - I love the color scheme on Ice Pack. Really nice job, and I'm glad you got to put that head to good use!

Thanks all. Especially thanks to all who have sent me fodder and paint.
I am almost done with Storm Watch, and will post him in the next few days (sans a ship wreck head, but I amy cobble something togethor as I want the whole crew to wear watchcaps.)

Careful, with a name like Ice Pack, he might randomly sink...
