Articulated Jochim Peiper

Hi All,

Well bit`s been awhile & I`m back in the saddle with customizing & here`s what`s going to kick it off

The Figure uses a few of the Original DML figure: Torso,Head,Hands & feet.
The Legs,waist & arms are Joes with the Wrists & Bottom legs customized to have the DML hands & feet attached.
The Lower part of the Leather jacket is actually Leather material so NOT to hamper the articulation of the figure.

Sorry they are dark indoor shots been raining ALL day

Great work Ja it's always a shame when a cool fig has bad articulation and this has worked really well great to see you back in the customising sadle.

Thank`s very much & Glad you like the customized Peiper

Wasn`t that difficult to do either so when I get a Wittmann one he`s getting the same treatment

I'm sure Jochim is very happy he finally got to stretch those legs and scratch that itch on his back. Nice work!

Not sure what that last pose is about though.

Jochim's secret passion was always Cheerleading!

GIVE ME AN "N"
"N"

GIVE ME AN "A"
"A"

GIVE ME AN "I"
"I"

GIVE ME AN "Z"
"Z"

What's that spell?
NAIZ?

Too bad spelling wasn't his passion too...

excellent work steel, the legs are spot on, I almost thought you made them out of DML legs, are they from tunnel rat? I added arms to my Jochim figure but had trouble with legs so I stopped there, I like the way you used leather for tyhe "skirt" part
great stuff

Thank`s very much mediump

Yep the legs are indeed off a Tunnel Rat figure.
I modified the DML waist so Joe legs would fit & inserted the metal rod into the Waist (upwards into the plug).
This holds the legs fast & as you can see gives Joachim his belt waist still. The Leather material both hides where I modified & completes the jacket off.

I had to use actual leather as there is nothing worse than added articulation & it affected by molded clothing....LOL

Again Thank You
