Here is Broadside, Navy Special Warfare Boat Operator.

He is a former Swick (Special Warfare Combatant-Craft Crewman) that moved up to operating small boats for Special Missions Units (including SEAL Team Six).

Before joining the JOEs full time, he was the primary trainer of new JOEs as they became certified in the operation of the Piranha Attack Boat and Devilfish. He has also helped the JOEs convert captured Cobra Piranhas and Moray Hydrofoils for the Team to use.

Broadside is an avid fan of classic swashbuckling Hollywood pirate movies, especially those of Errol Flynn.



Design wise, he is an attempt to match some of the RoC uniform designs involving the camo pants and the black armored top. I've given him a wetsuit and gear in case,.

Not sure how many of you remember when the Retaliation blu ray/dvd release came out there was a little design a character thing on one of the websites.

I made a few of them just to try it out, but never really gave much thought about fleshing them out any further.

Tonight I decided just to see how fast I could design one using the Hero Machine site.

This is Ninja Bob, a low level, redneck ninja working for Cobra.



and the original version

Another redo, like Ninja Bob.

This one is Dr. Venomova, an unethical woman who care little for the suffering of those she experiments on. She is responsible for performing the required operations that allow Strato-Vipers to operate at such high heights and for Hydro-Vipers to operate deep below the surface.

I have no idea what to call this one, or even have any clue on a specialty, although I'm looking at a possible file name of Chad Matthews... :wondertwins:

Let's see: Hardtack? Bullhead? Doubledown? Backtrack? Fast Track?

Or should I just go with the inevitable 'Mayor'?




I just realized I didn't add a leg strap for the dynamite...


I'm gonna call this one 'Cross'.

He is a forced liaison from the Jugglers, always sticking his nose into things and reporting back. The Joes don't like him and he doesn't exactly endear himself to them. Has numerous black op missions under his belt and may simply be a DOA Agent running around in the uniform of an Army Officer.

The name he goes by is Major Martin E. Cross, but the Joes call him 'Double' because they don't know if he will betray them or not.

I saw a pic online of a female cosplayer and thought she did a pretty good job of capturing the look.

Here's my attempt...

Had this one 95% done when the Flash plugin crashed. GRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!


Luckily I knew what I wanted to do and was able to make a few minor changes. Still not happy with the height, but it's as close as I can get.

Roadblock v1

Sometimes I like to bring other characters into my GIJOE universe. Clark Kent would be a reporter and Peter Parker would be a photographer.

Sometimes I like to tweak different characters outright.

May I present, the Tremor Boys (or the Beagle Brothers)

Heck, they are the Beagle Boys, but are collectively known as the Tremor Brothers...



Started from this idea (which was gonna be my idea for that one GP from awhile back-using the Chap Mei Bad Boys figure to make the Beagle Boys).


And I just finished this one...

_________________

Early on, I realized the JOE Team would need to not step on any toes by getting into jurisdictional disputes. Every agency would need a vetted Liaison to step in and work alongside the JOEs to get the job done without wasting time bickering.

Canine is my Liaison from the Drug Enforcement Agency and Aztec is her German Shepard.




DRUG ENFORCEMENT AGENCY LIAISON & DOG HANDLER wf
Codename: (Agent) Canine & Aztec
Filename: Edmondson, Laura M.
SN: Classified
PMS: DEA Liaison/Dog Handler
SMS: Law Enforcement Officer
POB: Little Rock, Arkansas
Grade: US Government Agent (DEA)

It was decided that when the GIJOE missions come in contact with the other various alphabet agencies, having a dedicated liaison who could run interference would be an asset and increase the chances of completing the missions successfully. Given that the Cobra agent, Headman, was a major player in the illegal drug world, it was decided the JOEs needed a friend in the DEA. A meeting with the head of the agency soon brought one suitable and highly-recommended agent to the Team. She had made a name for herself in the halls of the DEA for her aggressiveness and eye for investigative work. Her callsign during drug raids was ‘Canine’, because once she had sunk her teeth into a mission, she refused to let go until the perps were behind bars. Canine wasn’t afraid to jump into the fray against dealers, pushers, and enforcers that were better armed than her. She was always right behind the ‘doorman’ and was more than capable of taking down a suspect on her own. Even if she got into trouble, her loyal companion, ‘Aztec’, a huge German Shepherd, would be right there beside her. Aztec is a fully trained drug sniffer that is also familiar with bomb detection and rescue work.

Shockwave says: “There’s only a couple of JOEs on the team who have the legal right to make an arrest during a mission. We got Bulletproof, Law, Mutt, and SureFire…so I think having additional badges, not only for the legality, but for the power it yields-that helps out tremendously when it comes time to knock on the door. I’ve seen her in action and she can be on my door breaching team any day.”


I think if I was to point to any one specific source for this character, I'd go with Rene Russo's portrayal of IA Officer Lorna Cole.


Not a lot of reference material for this next one, so it's basically my take on him.

Dreadnok Death Metal


Then there is everyone's favorite ninja in red, Jinx...



May have to go back and give her an unmasked comic book/cartoon head.

Love the lifeline, but Serpy needs a belt.

OK, I know the Batman universe has the KGBeast and the NKVDemon, so I wondered if I could try my hand at creating a similar named character.

Maybe the Oktober Guardian?


Here is another of my Liaisons, this one is from the Justice Department.

Sable


Former Washington DC Policewoman and Detective. Had the character bio worked up way prior to discovering the WWE's Sable. My character is named after the animal and the various uses there of...meant to be a random generic codename.

Another redo of a previous attempt, done with that design a character site from back when Retaliation was coming to home release.

Female Arashikage Clan Ninja


Based on this pic


Another Liaison, albeit a Greenshirt Trainee from the NSA, specializing in Electronics Surveillance.

Wiretap


Didn't want full uniform or department windbreaker, decided on an outfit that would let her fit in walking around in any big city.

Name assigned in late 90s, btw...

Dreadnok Skull Hawk, based on the dollar store Stop vs Scum line...



Another Cobra Ninja, Boomslang


Based on this artwork...

Dreadnok Lady Lead


I am debating whether or not the characters of Skull Hawk and Lady Lead are actually aliase/alternate identities of Road Pig and Zarana.


Tried to create a custom harness for her holsters.


Also adding Jackdaw, Dreadnok Bush Pilot


He's a Kiwi, and can fly all sorts of transport planes while smuggling things for Zartan.
