Custom Sherman BBI Tank, and Medic Figure

Post by MIGMADMAVIS » Tue Mar 13, 2007 6:52 pm

Heres some customs of mine, for the sherman, all I did was take the BBI sherman, remove all the objects off of it, and then painted it OD Green, and for the medic figure, its just a marine, with a new helmet, nothing much.. :P :P <a href="http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/22 ... mlaP"><img src="http://thumb2.webshots.net/t/16/17/1/80 ... laP_th.jpg" alt="p1020871"></a><a href="http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/21 ...

Charlie Chaplin giving last rites to WWII soldiers—now that conjures up a funny mental image!

J/K, I was just razzing you - I too think a chaplain figure would be a pretty cool custom. There are so many fun specialities not even touched on by any of the manufacturers yet - chaplains, corpsmen, mechanics, MPs, boat crews, minesweepers, combat engineers, cooks, radio men, etc.

I guess 21C thinks a highly articulated cook with a cleaver, pot, and roasted turkey for accessories wouldn't sell, huh? I can't imagine why! :wink:

I made one back in 2001 when Series 1 just was getting popular. I posted this on gpxd back then too. I am surprised no one else has done one. All it took was a rubber band, a custom sculpey bible, and some careful painting.

Here are the medics I did in 2001 as well.

oh i see, i made a spelling mistake. Yes, very amusing. Ha.

From now on i guess we will point out everyone's little mistakes and flaws for the whole world to see, will we? Not like there's not enough pressure and criticism in life as it is. No, let's have everyone log onto their favourite escape from the pains and anxieties of life only to be razzed and made fun of some more, by people who are so full of their own insecurities that they attempt to make themselves feel superior by nit picking every little flaw and slip up of others that they can find.

Yes, that's the way we'll do it from now on.




:D

Nice job MK on the chaplain and medics! I think the custom Bible turned out especially well.
