Inspired by the deep dive they did on Cartoonist Kayfabe, I decided to make the post-apocalyptic Apache hero, Scout. Based on the Tim Truman comic.

i love it! one of the rubber fortnite bandannas might lay flatter, but it looks fine as is.

you have me relooking at that fortnite rifle too. i have some and thought they were too cartoonish, but after seeing this i think they are close to the a-team rufles! stainless(k) mini14gb with factory folders.

thanks for posting the source pic. it makes it that much better!

Thanks!

I fixed the bandana after taking the pic --just tucked it under the coat better although I might swap it out altogether--usually he'ss depicted with either a red or blue one).

Some of those Fortnite guns work really well...some...don't. I think that one and their AK-type gun work really well.

The Tommy gun is the best I've had, but there is a lot of decent futuristic looking pieces.

Not familiar with the character at all. Is it mid-80s?

The figure looks like you nailed the character. That is a great re-work of the Clutch/Wild Bill vest, too. What are the pouches from?

Thanks!
It started in the mid-80s but Truman still does stuff with the character (just kickstarted a new volume I believe).
The vest puches are from the harness on 25th Anni Firefly.

Nice one! You need to let Truman see it as I doubt there are a lot of Scout customs being done.

I return to the Fallout-verse.
A new super mutant figure. Base is the animated Drax 5.5 GOTG figure--shortened the legs a little and re-positioned them. I sculpted the torn pants and did some sculpting on the face.
The armor is from early 2000s TMNT figures--except the shovel piece is playmobil.

That's a great use of the Drax.
