I was going for a casual look in this one where perhaps he was forced to grab a gun while waxing a surfboard or something on his down time. Hopefully its not too simple with the lack of any webgear or the ammo strings. Let me know any suggestions to improve.

If you are going casual, why not a Chuckles torso?

Don't have any Chuckles figures. And I'm a t-shirt and jeans guy, so I guess I'm projecting my style onto him.

I think an ammo belt looped across the chest would work (just one), and still give the casual look of picking up the pig, as well as throwing on an extra belt across his shoulders.

For me, casual Rock would be wearing baggy shorts and possibly no shirt (or the chuckles shirt mentioned above). In this outfit and with the hat and glasses, he just doesn't feel like the character so much as a CIA contractor in Central America circa 1985 or so.

i get that, surfer dude and all, but the comic did show him in similar t-shirt and jeans outfits off duty a couple of times. So I think this works perfectly.

But that casual surfer look should now be on your to-do list.

I like it, but I get more of a Hollowpoint vibe from him.

That's funny, this figure started out as an idea for a Blackwater security for hire type figure. Then I decided to try a casual Rock'n Roll with some water slide decals I have been messing around with.

I hope that by 'Chuckles shirt' you guys aren't talking about that terrible Shipwreck torso... Cuz that's terrible.

This I have no problem accepting as RnR. Surfer guys don't dress for the beach EVERY day

Great incorporation of perfect logos to capture the casual look. Only other suggestion for the t-shirt logo would be "Mr. Zog's Sex Wax."
