German KSK

UK SAS (moutain warfare)

You did good on the Wustentarn camo. The G36 is also well done. The clip almost actually looks like it's that clear/black ABS from this angle. Very well executed. He also looks very German.

Is that Obi-Wan serving the SAS? Not only does he fight in space, he somehow manages to get in the SAS and look damn fine in that DPM

I must say he looks really good, the finish is clean and smooth, though I think he's got a pretty well kempt face and beard seeing as he shouldn't get too many showers behind enemy lines...

Fantastic job Blaster, keep up the good work man!

thanks Alloyskull, yeah Ewan's head wake a perfect SAS imho but i think you're right, i need to give him a bit weathering on the hair

Yep, those SW figures make good WWII soldiers too

I have both Jedi and Imperial figures heads serving both sides of the war now

And that's also where Hans the Hun and Herman the German came from too

Very cool work Blaster!!! I have been wanting to finish my KSK team myself. Love the SAS figure!!! The Head choice is perfect and i may have to steal that idea!

That's cool Blaster i have seen that pic before i want to do that as a figure! I have been waiting for Marauder's wave 5 for the sight to go on his M-4 so later this month when this wave arrives i have to work on this figure seeing your's has inspired me to make a start.

i like the pic too, i've been considering making a custom of it myself

the diemaco rifle is a bugger to make though, i'm not sure i've got the skills to customize one out of a M4

good news is i've started to make custom magpuls

magpuls? i am going to be interrested to see how you do that! the diemaco is going to be hard so i might have to cheat and use an M-4 with a H&K grenade launcher that i have already made.

well pics of the magpuls are coming soon

so are pics of the Minimi with a small cloth bag on its side to catch the spent cases

Another member of my SAS team in A'stan

i've used a 25A Beach Head (single card) body with a Biggs Darklighter head.
The pullover has been repainted and lightly sulpted (patches on the shoulders) to reflect the classic commando pullover of the British Army.
i modded a PTE body armor to make it look like an Osprey one with BBi pouches).
I also gave him a BBi pump action shotgun (i wanted to keep the shells on the body armor) that fits in a BBi harness (modded i had to cut off the bottom of the thing to make room for the shotgun's barrel)

In his thigh holster he's got the original BH beretta.
he also carries a Marauder inc modular NVR that makes a good H&K 417 (the sniper version shooting 7.62 rounds hence the larger mag)
