The ammo boxes are more difficult. Mostly 'cause I've been collecting action figure stuff for like 40 years, and don't always remember where something came from. Some of my mil boxes and crates came from www.build-a-rama.com, but they don't stowage in 1:18th scale anymore (they do make some kick...
You're lucky; all of these heads can be purchased without buying a whole figure. Using that last pic, going left-to-right, the first head is a Marauders Contract Ops head (https://www.marauderinc.com/), the next three heads are Dime Novel Legends (Dime Novel Legends Most Wanted - Headhunter...
And this guy I did last night and this morning. I've had these parts sitting around for awhile, but if I'm going to airbrush some primer on a project I try to make it 3 or 4 projects at once. It saves airbrush cleaning time.
It's mostly a Marauder Contract Ops figure, with a Marauder WWII head...
Those last four are a couple months old. This one was done a few weeks ago. I think all of the extra (non-Marauder) pouches and the chest-mounted radio are BBI.
And last of the four; meanest mofo on the team. Another Bad Mother tattoo, and a replacement upper for his chest armor. And I mentioned he's wearing Marauders WWII Japanese boots.
The team's sniper and weapons expert. I'm not sure I photographed all the Bad Mother tattoos on this guy, I might have to reshoot him to get them all (maybe after I add a few more tats). Probably still some work to do on the back of his armor as well.
I fuckin' love the Dime Novel heads, wish they would do another heads-pack. This guy is the team's sigint expert.
Again, some of the Marauder-mounting-holes have been filled and covered.
Of the four-man Contract Ops team this guy is the leader.
Vest pics are to better show the custom pouches and how Marauder-mounting-holes have been filled and covered with replacement molle webbing.
I've been working on some Marauders Contract Ops figures. I like to think of these guys as ISA, or Ground Branch, or whatever Tier 1 guys doing something covert (out of uniform). Left -to-right the first three are Dime Novel Legends heads, the fourth guy is a Marauder WWII head. You'll note some...
And Beachhead. Repainted the upper body a darker green, added to the leg-camo, rebuilt the vest to include the "beachhead" ammo pouches, added a few more details to the vest, and swapped out the gear on his legs. The grenade pouches on his back are from an older BBI figure.
Mostly this is a GI Joe roadblock figure with a Marvel Universe Deathlok head. I made it a few years ago so I don't remember all of the alterations. I'm pretty sure I had to paint the skin tone on the arms. I changed the pouches on the vest, added the drop-down holsters, and added the greeble...
And this is a favorite! Obviously inspired by Scrap Iron, but I've been calling her the Cobra special projects officer.
Marauder figure, and parts. Bad Mother slide-off decal (again).
