i like the first fig and the coloured string works really well.
now you've started customing it will come to consume your life
every toy you see you'll be wondering how to chop it up and what colour to paint it.
even tho i'm not working on my customs at the minute i'm buying the parts/figs for future customs.
should have enough parts/ideas to do me until the end of the year.

The Squad leader looks much better with the new rope,

I love these first series figures, and its great how a simple headswap can look so right !

looking forward to seeing more, so keep them coming !

that looks great TS. I think the best results are done with off a good head swap. Great job. I have 4 to post soon done in a similar way.

Great first efforts (and put mine to shame).
I honestly think that the simple things are often the best in customizing, silmply looking at what might go with what.

Great start to customising. The first figure looks brilliant and authentic, and the other accessories work well!

Bill is right, it becomes an obsession that will completely overtake your life, get out while you still can!
had to leave my shadows for a bit, im in a foul mood & when i get like this nothing is ever good enough & figures end up traveling the room @ high velocity!
keep it up thundershot!

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys..

I gotta admit to feeling like a bit of a cheat calling him a custum :oops:,after all, all I did was swap the head over..It's not like I spent the hours of sculpting & painting that you fella's do so brilliantly..the whole thing took less than 10 min's even with masking & spraying with his beret

I'm looking forward to seeing the 4 new guys from you Chopper..& Ross dont go throwing figures @ your new ceiling when you get it..your landlord sounds like much better target :-D

Great start , the most natural customs just come from using original parts.
