Here's a wave 1 custom. It's basically the mission pilot with a frogmans head, and a miliput sculpted Red Army ww2 tank helmet. (thanks to Malcolm for the advice re: miliput.)

Very nice custom Muton - I really like it!

Could you post a pic of the real guy/helmet so we can compare please.

here's few pics..
The tank helmets were made in leather or canvas, in a variety of shades and subtle variations.

Those reference pics just make your custom look even better and more accurate.

Great work!
