Dry Fire is an original character, and my semi-self custom. I had made a figure of him a few years back, but sold him when I needed money. Here is my new one to keep!

He may be the Joe’s combat handgun expert, but he’ll also carry an M-14 into combat!

Image



He features the working M-12 holster/M9 pistol combo from Raginspoon’s online store. I sculpted the holster.

When I decided to remake the figure to keep I made a combat armored version and an “at ease” version.

Nice work. I like the distressed edges on the armor pads and the color in the pads and base vest, it really helps them stand out from the base vest and show their detail. And from your avatar I can see the resemblance. Great job once again.

What? No bass or spikes on the shoulder armor? Very cool looking figures.

I turned him into a Dreadnok. :lol:

He's Storm Rider's muscle...

I think I changed the belt on him though.

Glad to see you made more and improved on it. Now I don't feel so bad.

Hey, it was good thing that I sold it. It forced my hand to make two more. Now I have the badass combat armored version, which is something I would not have done had I kept the original.

Always fun to go back to an old project.
