Post by NSA » Tue Mar 29, 2011 5:21 pm

So I finally decided I'd try my hand at a Dio...

It's nothing super elaborate or anything compared to what I've seen you guys do, but it's a start!

Thanks for reading/looking :)

Outstanding work all the way around. Great life-like poses. Really like the guys in the window. Looking forward to seeing some more. Regards...Bob

Thanks everyone :) It was a fun little project.. I wish I had more space though! I don't know how to fit in different stuff.. we shall see what I can come up with!

The vests are GI JOE "Pit Commando" vests.. I trimmed them and then attached BBI/21C/FOV pouches/gear to them.

Oh wow, you attached individual pouches? That's awesome, I'd never have the time to do that :(. Spectacular work.

It wasn't as hard as it sounds, usually they come with a couple attached to each other, so you just have to mix and match and paint it all the same color :)

I just got back into customs about 2 months ago, and I've come a long way!

Thanks for the kind words :)
