Picked up the Hector kit from Raginspoon at JoeCon this year and finally put it together. Used a Cobra trooper body and Stormy upper and CC lower legs. Painted the suit a grayish blue.

After finishing him I needed to make a camera man for Hector. So I went with a kinda undercover Scoop. Used a PoC Steel Brigade upper torso and Retaliation Joe Colton lowers. Head was a BBI soldier. Helmet is DTC Med Alert.

Thoughts and critiques before sealing and submitting?

Ramirez is solid. Great job on him.

It took me a while to "get" Scoop. The execution is fine, but I didn't understand that he was meant to be in a generic flak vest that was kind of thrown on him. It's still a bright colour scheme, but the khaki pants are an improvement over the original's bright green.

In the BattleGround app one of the Hector designs shows him wearing a helmet and vest. Can you do me a favor and put the Hector head on the Scoop body with the helmet? If that works you may have just added a custom to my to-do list.

Ask an ye shall receive! The head sits high on the neck with no modding, but it should work for you.

Talking with Raginspoon at the Con, he is wanting to mod a vest to fit the suited Hector for a Battlegrounds type look.

Your back ground looks like a Joe graveyard, Bodies all over the place, always fun to see work bench pictures.

Thank you. That looks like it is worth pursuing for sure.
