Where's the dog from? They both look fantastic. I've been throwing around the idea of doing this with the Order dog from Renegades line.

Pretty awesome! The best customs are the ones that don't look like you did much at first glance, but afterwards realize all the work that went into it!

These look awesome! I am pretty sure the dog was sculpted by JediMasterBen. I think he had four variations of the dog. Head up, head down, armored head up, and armored head down. Your paint apps make him almost look alive. Very nice.

thanks all...There are a lot of great customizers here and it has made me look at my work and work on the details more. I appreciate all the good feedback. :D

Some answers to some questions...

The pouches are the bottom 1/2 of a OURWAR vest...the dog got a hold of one of my sons and tore it up pretty bad. TRIA was amazing and got him another...but I got the parts...the top of the vest was shot, but with a bit of cutting and some sculpt, I was able to blend it in.

Back pack - came from the Dollar General US Marines sets. I bought the sets and proceeded to part them out, cut off pouches and holsters and such. I had to cut off the peg and add a different one to fit Joes, but it fits this torso perfectly.

Dog - JediBen sounds familiar...I might have gotten it from Slayer Dave...

thanks again!

Love the paint work, I echo the responses, they look alive. Great job.

And yes, that dog was sculpted by me. There are 6 versions of the German Shepard, Standing, Sniffing Ground, and Barking, followed with the same versions armored up. Currently do not have a casting company under contract to make these and I am not set up to do production work here. Hopefully one of the casting companies will want to lease the sculpts so they can get them out to you the community.

I don't know if I ever saw the other poses...I hope you get someone to cast them...I'd love a sniffing and barking armored version!

Jesse - Email this fella!!! :p

Sweet! That dusty torso actually looks good once you define it and add gear to it

"for serious" he says.

Of course it deserves the slot.
