Quake computer game....guy, LBC

[Dropshipbob]

I've played the first version over and over, I don't think he ever had a proper name.

Quake was hailed as one of the best first person shooters made back in 1996 and still holds a place as one of the most ground breaking games ever.

I'd like to make as many weapons and badguys as possible, the easiest being the Rottweilers that roam some of the levels. I'd also like to make a diorama of one of the ruined temples that consists much of the game.

HEAD - Wolverine movie Sabertooth
Helmet- Skydive
Body and legs - Skydive
Arms - some Dreadnok
Hands - Roadblock
Boots - some SW charcter

P.S.
I don't suppose anyone has a 25th Zartan upper body and arms they'd be willing to sell? That would probably do this character better justice.

I may have one, I will have to check to night.

I have one, hell maybe 2, complete Zartans.

 

[Dropshipbob]

Well, whoever has one they are willing to part with, let me know? I can buy it outright, or send pics of fodder I have for trade.

 

[K-Tiger]

Send 'em along.

Mmm, i could use those 2 M79 grenade launchers.

 

[Dropshipbob]

Surely you'd want more than just those for the figure?

Looking good, amazing that pattern on the stomach works well

 

[Monkeywrench]

looks great!

Not unless you've got a set of 25th Flint web gear or other stuff laying around. Not a Zartan fan, and only got one for the VSS, and Peeker sent me a box of Joes with another Zartan in it.

Update:
Added blood splatter, K sent me a Zartan, but I think this figure works best. Not to worry K, I have plans for Zartan. He'll become a Quake grunt.

The shotgun: why I can't I find a decent shotgun? I had to cobble this out of two different shotguns. I then tried to dye it black but it came out a light gray instead. I then painted it, but the paint kept getting scraped off. And I couldn't find a good hand to hold it pointing out but then I found the 25th Roadblock hand but it was to open to hold the gun, so I had to just glue it in place and repaint the whole thing.

The axe: This is the default weapon in the game, I made it out of a Q-tip for the handle and two pieces of thin styrene for the axe head. Pinched them together at the ends, glues, then filled with green putty. Some sanding and paint and there you go.

The dog: Rottweiler from the 25th Junkyard/Mutt figure. No mods other than cutting the chain off. I may paint the teeth white just so you can actually see them. I actually need a few more of these if anyone can help.

Also in hand but not shown: shotgun shell ammo box. I can't scan it and it's really pretty boring so I'll wait till I have more and take a group picture.

Next up: hopefully a Shambler. Looks like a Wampa from Star Wars (which is what I'll use for the base) but nastier, a face full of teeth and throws lightning bolts like they're party favors.

I think I have a few of those dogs, let me check.

 

[Dropshipbob]

Cool!

 

[fogger1138]

Okay, I have one of these: http://www.yojoe.com/action/08/mutt8.shtml
and one of these: http://www.yojoe.com/action/09/eliteviper.shtml
Same dog, different paint & leash, essentially. Want either or both?

 

[Dropshipbob]

I need to consolidate my Quake figure threads.

Just finished up this Quake Enforcer, another LBC.

Can't remember the names of the figures most of the parts came from. All I do remember is the helmet came from a Matt Tracker, gun from an Arms Dealer Destro (?) and the back pack from a SW Den Gar.

No paint except on the helmet

Shambler thread...

P.S. I don't know why this is in the military customs thread...maybe it was before we had a "general" area?

 

[Fled74]

Awesome customs! I think you posted these before I joined up.

Quake was one of my favorite games back then, and my brother and I would mod the crap out of it.

 

[Dropshipbob]

Yeah, I loved Quake to. I didn't know how to mod, but I downloaded a few mods, maps and such. I also loved playing multi player...even though my connection back then sucked and I was constantly freezing up.
